I got a TCA chemical peel Tuesday afternoon, it is now Wednesday night and my face is so dry and feels like leather. It is also really tight. What can help with the dryness? And is all of this normal? Its my first peel. The dryness has gotten a lot worse in the last few hours. Photos are of day 1 after peel and of face 2nd day after the peel
I did a 25% TCA Peel 3 nights ago. My cheeks frosted really well, when they did I put neutralizer on them. next day my cheeks and some other areas are really pink and have dark brown spots. These really red spots make me feel like I burned and might scar. It doesnt hurt, but it hasnt started to peel yet like other spots. What can I do to treat it if it is burnt? Ive done one before either 10/15 and had great results. Im using burn cream and essential oils mixed in coconut oil for moisturizer
I put 30% TCA on my scars on Saturday night... I read to dip a toothpick into the TCA and apply pressure into the scar and hold for a few seconds. My scars all appear rounded like the impression of a toothpick mark now. They dont seem to look any better at all and its been 3 days. they are wider and deeper and slightly scabbed over and the scabs that have come off are BRIGHT red... Any suggestions on what I can do? Or if this is normal? Or how bad did I damage my skin? Thanks
This large sore has developed today 3days after a tca peel, the peel was done in a reputable salon. It is crusting and weeping and quite swollen, why has this happened and what should I use for it, the salon is closed for two days?
Hi , sorry to message you even you don't know me but I really need some advice about TCA peel I had the second TCA 20% on 19th night, I left it on for 3mins then washed it off, but the burning last all night long from strong to less, the face wasn't red but pale, only the area on my jaw line and one side of my cheek turned brown a few hours later ....the next day, my face was swelling a lot, the brown area looks like orange skin... so I put some antiseptic cream and some healing cream on it, on the same night it started to feel tight a little bit and a little less swelling..... yesterday its still swelling a bit, the whole face turned darker red and brown, and it started to peel on my chin but only a thin layer, and the skin underneath haven't change it still brown!! today (day 3 and half), my face seems not swelling anymore, it feel really tight I can't even smile, the skin very brown, I'm so worry now, is my face colour gonna be like this forever? did I just over burned it for some reason? it acted so different compare with the first peel 5 weeks ago... the first on was great, only took 5 days to peel and the skin colour gone back to normal straight away on the peeled area... please help me and tell me what should i do... thank you!
