SkinTech TCA Peel

What is a TCA Peel?

Trichloracetic acid, a moderate strength peel

Indications for TCA

  • Acne

  • Superficial melasma (pigmentation)

  • Photoageing

  • Fine lines & wrinkles

  • Face, hands and neck/décolletage can be treated

What is the procedure for the TCA peel?

Initial consultation is required to assess suitability. The skin is thoroughly cleansed in preparation. TCA 15% strength peel is applied evenly to the skin using cotton buds. Further layers will be applied until “frosting” is achieved, at which point a post peel mask is applied.

During the treatment the client may experience a stinging or burning sensation and may find the procedure mildly uncomfortable but this resolves after the post peel mask is applied.

Following a TCA peel;

  • Day 1 – skin may be red and feel tight

  • Day 2 – skin may start to peel, and remain red and tight

  • Day 3-5 – peeling of the skin

  • Day 7 – healthier looking skin revealed

A course of 4 treatments is recommended for optimal results, with a peel every 1-2 weeks.

To optimise and maintain peeling results it is advised to use the prescribed Skintech skincare.

Peeling skin must not be pulled off as this can cause irregular pigmentation. Make-up can be applied once peeling has ceased.

You will need to avoid sun exposure for several months, and wear an SPF50 face cream daily.
