TCA 20%

WORTH IT$45
So here's the update, I did a 20% TCA peel Sunday after a month of prep with the lactic. I moved up in strengths with the lactic from 10% 15% 20% and finally 30%. I did lactics twice a week. My face suffered no damage. Now 3 days after my TCA I am starting to peel. Under the peeling skin that hasn't fallen off the dark marks that were there are faded a whole lot, basically another light TCA peel and it will be gone. That was my main goal and to get a head start on my acne. I can deal with acne. Drink water, change diet, and acne wash but dark marks aren't like that. So here is the updated pictures. ???????????????? the dark areas you see are the skin that is peeling off.

So I am peeling a little but not every where. Face feel a little tight and smooth. I've decided to do the TCA peel after next week. I'm going on vacation and I don't think I want my face peeling on the beach. I still have that dark area on my face but I know Its a process. I've been using hyaluronic acid as the moisturizer. It's the same fluid that your eye produces for moisture. So why not lol I've posted pics.
