TCA Peel After Jessner Peel Left Brown Spots

Thanks for the photo. It appears as a hyper-pigmentation effect. Treatment bleaching creams or hydroquinones. Seek a derm or PS advise

You should be using a prescription bleaching cream and cortisone cream to help resolve those dark and red spots quickly.  Even another light jessners peel later can even out the color also.

This could have been avoided altogether by pre-treating for a couple of weeks with a prescription bleaching cream, like hydroquinone, and tretinion. It looks like you have olive skin tone, which should always be pre-treated before TCA peels.

Unfortunately, the peel has been done and hyperpigmentation has occured, but there is hope. Avoid direct sun exposure and wear a broad-spectrum sunscreen of at least SPF 30 or higher every day. Start using a prescription bleaching cream ASAP to help fade the brown spots and cortisone cream to reduce inflammation and calm redness. You should see improvement fairly quickly, but give yourself more healing time. It may take several more weeks, so be gentle with your skin and in time it will be looking much better. Good luck!
