I had an esthetician recommend a peel for my back from acne scars. She did a Jessner peel followed by a 30% Tca peel. Within seconds I told her to take it off my skin because I could not withstand the burn any longer. She also said 30% was no strong for my body. The next day I knew something wasnt right because the rawness and discomfort did not seem normal. Cut forward to a month later and Im dealing with severe pih. What can I do to treat this? Will it go away?
They have no texture, some have a little texture. I used a 30% TCA peel to do the cross method last night and woke up to this, I definitely frosted, I removed the tca then applied neosporin, please help, Im worried that these are going to stay dark spots, it looks worse now, Im trying to fill in my icepick scars
I got a TCA peel two weeks ago in the hopes that it would help fade my PIH that I had been struggling to fade for about two months with hydroquinone 2% (which worked before) to no avail. The doctor diluted a 50% solution, though I don't really know what percentage it got reduced to. Suffice to say, it didn't work and it even made me purge. I heard clay masks can help with acne, so I was wondering if it's safe for me to use after the peel. Tips for my PIH would also be appreciated. Thanks!
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.
I'm indian with dark skin I have seborrheic dermatitis on my nose bridge and near to that. Last year August month I have undergone TCA chemical peel after that I have developed pih. Could anyone suggest me permanent solution for pih. Does peels benefit to pih or laser.
I had a 40% TCA peel done by my dermatologist that left my face with Post inflammatory hyperpigmentation (all over my face) and prolonged redness. I look really bad, and I am just wondering what is the longest amount of time I can expect to look like this (it has been 3 weeks since my peel)? I am a 21 year old male, with light brown hispanic skin.
