The 25% TCA peel is an extremely deep peel. We do not recommend the direct application of this undiluted solution to your face. This peel in intended to be diluted with the easy to follow instructions included with the package. The 50% strength will end up saving begining users, as well as long time users money, since the percentages can be graduated as you move along with your regimen. There are instances where you can apply this undiluted to a scar (TCA CROSS), or on the body. We recommend using extreme caution when doing this.
 
Advantages of a TCA application

TCA will improve color, freshness, texture, skin tone, and fine wrinkles. It will also improve superficial discoloration, such as age spots. It may improve blotches and can sometimes improve dark circles under your eyes. Unlike deep peels, medium peels (TCA) may be performed safely on people with olive and light brown skin. TCA is a natural 2nd step when other acids stop producing benefits.


How TCA works

The first layer is applied (approximately a 3-5 minute time frame) - the proteins in the skin coagulate, then the peel self-neutralizes. Then the second layer is applied directly on top of the first. It will go through the first layer and coagulate the layer below (another 3-5 minutes) then self-neutralize. This process generally goes 2-5 layers.** If you have never had a TCA peel before, we suggest applying only 1 layer the first time you perform the peel. You can then strengthen the peel with additional layers as you move forward in the process. We suggest the 12.5% for beginners and those with sensitive skin.

**For reference - the Obaji Blue Peel is either a 15% or 20% (doctor's preference/patient's skin) TCA solution applied in 3-5 layers in a doctor's office.

 

 

Disadvantages

ATCA peel can not improve dynamic wrinkles (smile/frown lines caused by constant movement). To achieve the best results, you should use professional skin care products before your peel (such as glycolic acid 15% cream, glycolic cleanser or retin-a) and anticipate that two or more peels may be needed at one- three-month intervals. If you are prone to fever blisters, the acid can cause a breakout. Prescription medications must be used before a TCA peel is applied or the breakouts could cause scarring.

Preparation for a TCA Peel

Preparing your skin with bleaching products (if you have pigmentation issues *read here!), glycolic acid or retin-a prior to a medium depth chemical peel, will result in deeper penetration, faster recovery, lower risk of discoloration, and a better result. Optimally, you should prepare your skin for several weeks prior to an application. You may already have prepared skin if you are following a professional regemine.

The Procedure

Medium peels are usually performed as office procedures, but can done at home with caution and preparation. The Obaji Blue Peel is a TCA peel, and requires generally 5-15 minutes start to finish. The TCA is applied to each area, being careful not to overlap another area (unless multiple layers are being applied for a deeper peel). This should only be done in a doctor's setting. When the desired depth has been achieved, the acid will be splashed with cool water if any tingling remains. If your skin has frosted (turned white), which is not very likely using the 12.5% solution, your skin will return to its normal color in 15 to 45 minutes. Your skin should be covered with an oil-based ointment (such as Emu oil and Copper Peptide), or Bacitracin (or other comparable ointment) to keep your skin moist and promote healing. You may have slight swelling (only with the 20-30%% solution) which will go away in a day or two.

Recovery

There should be no discomfort following the procedure. You will wash your face twice daily with a gentle cleanser and apply a moisturizing ointment (as mentioned above). With a high % of TCA, your face will initially appear red. Within a few days, your stratum corneum (outermost layers of skin) will turn darker, and prepare to peel. The flaking is usually complete in four to seven days. Once your skin has finished peeling, you may begin wearing makeup. You should resume skin care within two weeks of your procedure. Any post "flushed" appearance will fade slowly over several weeks.

Cost

The average cost of a full-face medium chemical peel performed in a spa or office, will fall in the $500 - $1200 range.

Duration of Results

Most people will be able to continually see the results of their TCA peels for 6 months - two years. If you use professional collagen inducing, exfoliating skin care products regularly after your peel, you will maximize the duration of improvement. Most people opt to perform 1-3 more TCA peels throughout the year to keep everything looking fresh.

What is the Quality of Our Peel?

Our TCA is a Reagent Grade (ACS). This is the highest purity level that can be attained. It meets the standards of ACS Reagent Chemicals, Current Edition. Reagent grade chemicals are high quality and purity for laboratory use. The American Chemical Society Committee on Analytical Reagents establishes the standards for reagent chemicals. All of our peels are created inside of an FDA registered laboratory.



Read the instructions thoroughly before applying the peel. The instructions you'll receive explain how to do a patch test to determine what strength solution to use for your skin and how to dilute the 50% TCA to the strength you prefer (TCA comes in a purified water base). It's always best to start with a weak solution for the patch test, then go stronger if desired.

Once the treatment is completed, you can expect to shed the dead, outer layer of skin for approximately three days. Following this, you can expect your skin to be completely healed within ten to fourteen days. At that time you will notice improvement in the appearance of your skin, which will have less wrinkles, blemishes, and pigmentation problems. You will also notice a healthy glow as your face appears radiant and shining.

TCA is a deeper peel than most of the superficial peels that just cause the skin to lightly flake. Because it is a deeper treatment, your “downtime” will be approximately one week. During this time of peeling and healing, you will be required to keep your facial skin moist with an antibacterial ointment. After you are healed, sunscreen use is very important because you are initially much more sensitive to harmful ultraviolet radiation from the sun.

Great for SUN-DAMAGED SKIN and DARK SPOTS! Hyperpigmentation (darkened skin) and age spots lighten or disappear by the medium-deep peeling action of TCA, which sheds off those damaged surface skin cells, revealing new, smoother skin beneath. Greatly improves ACNE and BLACKHEADS by shedding away the outer layer of skin that blocks infection in the pores, allowing the infection to clear out and the pores to heal! SCARS and TATTOOS lighten or fade away (depending on the number of treatments and the depth of scars/tattoos)! LIP CREASES decrease in depth, thereby reducing the crease size and preventing lipstick seepage. New surface skin is now is clear and smooth. Decreases the size of LARGE PORES too.

 This is the SAME solution used by Dermatologists and Cosmetic Surgeons!

    **This is an extremely strong product.  Please be certain to read our Disclaimer and Agreement listed at the bottom of this page. By using this product, you assume sole risk and responsibility.**

    Cautions:

    • Do not use this product if you are currently using Accutane, 
      or have used Accutane anytime within the last 24 months, as scarring may result.
    • Do not use a TCA peel if you have herpes simplex.
    • Do not use if you are pregnant.
    • Do not use if you are lactating.
    • Do not use if you tend to keloid.
    • Do not use if you are undergoing chemotherapy or radiation.
    • Do not use if you are HIV positive or have AIDS.
    • Don't apply the TCA to areas where you have used hair removal products, have shaved, or used granular exfoliation products or buffing pads for several days pre-peel.  We need non-irritated skin for best results.
    • Don't resume acid-based products, acne skin products, granular products, exfoliators for 2 weeks post-peel or longer, if your skin is still sensitive/healing. 

    The Treatment:
    TCA is a self-regulating acid which typically stops working after 5 - 8 minutes.  However, we
    do recommend the neutralizing solution of baking soda and water (listed above) to ensure complete neutralization at any time during the process.  If the burning from the product is too much for you, neutralize with the baking soda recipe provided above.  Once the acid is off the skin, the burning sensation will stop.  

    Use the results of your patch-test as a guide for the length-of-time you leave it on the skin.  Complete and concise instructions will be included with your purchase along with "what if" scenarios.  We have noted the items you'll need to provide above.  All other items necessary for the treatment will be included with your kit.


    Darker skin tones:
    TCA peels are not considered effective treatments for improving skin discolorations in persons with darker skin tones.  They are safe for overall peeling, particularly at the 8% and 12.5% strengths, however.

    After the Treatment: Post-peel, your skin will continue to improve for 14-21 days as cell turnover takes place and your skin returns to a normal pH level. 

    Moisture - Use your Neosporin for 48 hours post-peel. We list excellent companion products, below.

    Store TCA Peels in cool, dry place for 18-24 month shelf-life.
