Information About Our Procedures.
TCA (chemical) Skin Peel
Patients concerned with fine wrinkled skin, pigmented
areas, uneven or sun damaged skin may benefit from a trichloroacetic acid (TCA) skin peel. The procedure is performed after being pre-treated with a skin care program for 6 weeks. The skin surface grows back smoother and tighter to give the patient a more youthful appearance.
The procedure is done in the office. The chemical peel treatment is usually performed to the entire
face; however, localized areas may be targeted. A skin care regimen will be performed at home but will
be frequently monitored in the office. Healing is usually complete within 10 days. The
redness may persist for 3 weeks but the new skin will improve over the following months.
