15% TCA Peel

I used a 15% TCA solution from Skin Obsession. I did this in October as well. So this is my second of 3 or 4 peels, I haven't decided yet.

In October I did the first layer and left it on for 5 minutes then did a second layer and left it on for 3 minutes. My forehead didn't peel as much as the rest of my face.

So this time......

Applied the solution to my forehead first and left on for 5 minutes. Applied the solution to my entire face and left on 3 minutes. Then applied again and left on for 5 minutes. Then rinsed with water to deactivate the solution.

What to expect.......

It's an acid so it burns. If it's the first peel for you follow the recommended times for the peel. Expect your face to frost (looks like a white haze on top of you're skin) it's possible that it won't, but not probable. Once it frosts rinse your face for about 3 minutes.

I'm pretty fair complected so I turn pinkish-red almost immediately. Over the next 24 to 48 hours the outer layer of your skin turns brown and dry and you look like you ate around 90 years old.

I did mine on a Tuesday night and started peeling on Thursday night. I will more than likely continue to peel through Saturday.

My skin is pink and sensitive underneath and I use a broad spectrum sunscreen when i leave the house.
My skin stays a little pink for about a week.

The texture and tone of my skin is noticeably improved. The pore size is greatly diminished.
