Chemical Peels For Acne And Anti Aging: Facial TCA Series

These pictures are from before I started this TCA series and after the last peel, so there’s about a six-month gap between the pictures and about four TCA chemical peels, ranging from a 12.5 to 25% buffered solution.

I purchased a 50% TCA chemical peel solution and diluted it to start out conservatively.

Here’s a picture of me in September, before my first TCA peel. I was wearing sunscreen and powder, since that’s what I usually wear. I had several acne scars around my chin that were starting to look really bad, some fine lines, and discoloration around my smile lines.

AFTER 5th Peel:

This is my face after the series of five TCA chemical peels. I am NOT wearing sunscreen or powder. I think my biggest problem area (my chin) is looking much better. The hyperpigmentation around my smile lines is much lighter! And I think the overall texture of my face looks much better…seems fuller and firmer, but could be wishful thinking 😉 Here’s the solution I use, but I dilute it!.
