Will a TCA Peel Under the Eyes Help with Small Syringomas?

July 14, 2011
Asked By:wolf24 in los angeles, ca

I just started to develop syringomas underneath my eyes, I have been using retin-a to help prevent/slow them down, but they continue to grow at a rapid rate. Will a TCA peel help? Can it be done just under the eyes? How long is the down time? Thanks!
