What is the strongest available concentration for TCA peels?

Question

Hello, what are the strongest peel offered? Is there concentration of tca higher than 35%? What is deeper than a 35% tca? Can you do a, say, 40 % tca, or 70% tca?

Marvin F. Shienbaum, MD · Answer

The strongest available concentration for TCA peels is typically 70%. However, it's important to note that this concentration is considered very deep and should only be performed by a qualified medical professional in a controlled environment.

Higher concentrations of TCA carry a higher risk of side effects, including scarring and uneven pigmentation. It's essential to consult with a dermatologist to determine the appropriate concentration for your specific skin concerns and needs.
