Is it safe to use a chemical peel (trichloroacetic acid) before conceiving?

There is almost no systemic absorption of the TCA. It is affect is limited to the skin. There are different strengths of TCA peels and the higher concentrations have longer recovery but it should not be an issue when trying to conceive.

Hello, thank you for your question! While trichloroacetic acid (TCA) chemical peels are safe when performed correctly, I recommend waiting before undergoing any chemical peels. During the period leading up to conception, it's essential to minimize exposure to any treatments or products that could potentially affect your skin or health in unpredictable ways.
