It's peeling
New101July 10, 2015
$100
I have kept my face moisturized and it's began to start peeling..
although the peeling isn't as bad as some pictures iv seen on line I think it's going well. Perhaps I didn't leave it on long enough..but it's better to be less then touch for my first time.
I have been putting spf 50 cream on my face which is hard to apply cuz I don't like rubbing the skin..I suggest spray. And I have also been sporting a bball cap all week. I did my peel on sunday so this is 5 days after progress so far.

Just applied my tca
New101July 5, 2015
So I just applied my tca. I did my forehead first and then neutralized it befor continuing onto the res of my face. My forehead stung like a mother *** and frosted very fast wasn't on more then a minute I think.
I used MUAC 18% tca. Firat I washed my face clean with the green tea cleaner , then I used a cotton pad and purified my face with alcohol. I then let it dry completely and applied the tca with a thin soft clean and dry paint brush. It went on very well and I am so far happy. When I applied it to my nose and cheak it frosted quite well I should have done my chin and jawline first because they didn't really frost. I will be posting pictures over then next few days of my progress.
After I neutralized I washed my face lightly again with the green tea cleanser as described, blotted it dry with a soft cloth and waiting for my face to fully dry before applying polysporn ointment to the whole face.

You followed the steps correctly. Please post results. I had little peeling with 25% but I have exfoliated my entire life so little needed to come off.

It's day 2 and my skin feels tight and slightly red. I have been using polysporn and Cetaphil moisturizer aswell as spf 50 on my face while wearing a big sun hat out side.
My side corners of my nose looks like it's starting to peel and so is my test patch from before.
I have always had a dry skin problem around my nose I hope this helps with that

TCA peels are self neutralizing. Yo determine depth by the concentration and the number of passes.

It says in the instructions ita not self nurtaliIng...
Many people are button heads about this.... but I know that once it's frosted it needs to be neutralized because if it over frosts it can cause more sage then good

That's good for people to know.
I have never done a peel on myself as I could tell from the professional one it's complicated and did require two people.
I was very happy with Dr. and her entire team. Some things are best left to the professionals, as if you over react in any way, they know what to do.
I doubt I would have a clue.

Tca 18% patch test
New101June 29, 2015
I cleansed my face and tested a patch on my side cheek by my ear. I first prepped it with alcohol after cleansing. Then applied the tca with a cotton pad while wearing gloves. I then, after a few mins neutralized it with the pre mixed stuff I bought that came in the kit from muac.
I was suprised at how little it stung..
I thought it was going to hurt after hearing reviews but all it felt like I was toning my face. And I was also expecting major frosting as its a higher %of tca but it was minimal.

how long did you have the tca on your face? thanks
July 2, 2015
For this test spot only a min or 2 I should have waiting longer but I was overly worried. It was a hard place to see if I was frosting but I thought I was so I took it off. Tho...it hardly tingled and it hasn't peeled or anything yet.
I am planning on doing my full face peel tomorrow.
