I've been using Obagi 5, hydroquinone 4% over one year. Now I found out I am one month pregnant and stopped using it. Do I have a risk of birth defect on my baby?

The stronger the concentration of TCA that is used during
the Blue Peel, the deeper it will penetrate.
Sometimes more than one coat is needed, as well as a series of peels a
month or six weeks apart. Prior to
proceeding with a Blue Peel, I would recommend getting involved with a good
skin care...
I use the Melarase AM and Melarase PM protocol for my patients with PIH and hyperpigmentation that is either hormonal or sun related. Patients who need deeper penetration can add the RR Retinoid Repair creams to enhance action. Surgery90210
There are different protocols for either method. Some perform facial fillers at the same setting as the Obagi Blue peel.I perform them on different visits, spaced at least 3 days apart.
