I have a clear caramel skin and my whole life.. i apply just vaseline on my whole body. I have no skincare products.. but growing up, my inner thighs, neck, under arms, knees, knuckles, vaginal region and elbows are currently about 4times darker than my complexion and its really disgusting and embarrassing... people think i was bleaching and it went wrong.. but i have never bleached. So recently I bought 50% TA to apply to those areas.. would it work?
I went to a local DR to have a TCA peel on my chest area. Ive been on these forums reading about TCA peels and frosting. Using 25% and 3 layers there was no frosting though. I was too scared to get another layer. I feel i may have wasted my money and will only end up resulting in a superficial peel. Is not frosting with that many layers a bad sign? Do you only frost on the face? Too nervous to go back if results will only be minimal.
Hi. I am a white male, with untanned skin. I've done a 25% TCA neck peel with great results, but on a second try, with the purpose to fade an incision scar, I've developed postinflammatory hyperpigmentation, possibly because of doing a too deep 1.5 mm microneedling as well. A further month later 25% TCA didn't ameliorate the issue as you can see in the photo. Would further, lighther TCA peels help in comb. with sun protection and bleaching agents? Could be dermal hypermelanosis? Thank you.
This was done 6 days ago and Everything was fine until it started peeling. With bright PINK skin under instead of my normal skin. I'm positive my neck will never be normal again and will need plastic surgery. I use Neosporin and Cetaphil , Aquaphor sometimes. What should i do? I will get surgery immediately if needed..
I am a 30 yrs old indian male with brown skin, After the 30% tca peel, my neck is even darker. Is this normal? does the skin will correct in a few days? Am I over-reacting, should I wait for a few more days to see? if not what are my options? Will laser help after scrapping the top layer of neck's skin? I did this peel this to get rid of hyperpigmentation caused by 4% hydroquinone so bleaching agent is not an option to fix this. Please advise and help. will the pink spots go away? Thanks
I had sun damage (brown spots) on my neck and forearms treated 2 years ago with IPL (4 treatments). My arms responded great, but my neck only lightened a little bit. Any other treatments recommended? Would a TCA peel or Fraxel be worth trying to improve the discoloration on my neck? Any suggestions would be appreciated.
