Is a 20% TCA peel safe for black skin used to chemical peels?

I have had many different types of peels of the years and they've never harmed my skin. I recently had a 20% TCA peel at a dermatologist and everything went fine, no burns or scars etc. Is it safe for me to continuing to use 20% TCA peels? I've heard that we shouldn't be using TCAs
