Is it safe to do an at-home TCA peel every two weeks?

timish401
Hello. I've done three 15% TCA peels at home so far with a span of three weeks in between each peel. My skin texture is a little better but still not where I want it to be. I have some light acne scarring from teenage acne (I'm 29 now) and noticeably large pores. My goal is to reduce the scarring and make my pores smaller. Would a TCA peel every two weeks help me achieve this goal and is it safe to do a TCA peel every two weeks indefinitely?
