  • I did a 20% 2 layers in 2009 looked like a hot mess for 7 days but it removed all of my sun spots

  • And thank you very much for the bids

  • really great info..any idea how to use tca peel for body scar? what u recommend? waiting 4 reply

  • What happens if your a dark complextion and have discoloration can I use it

  • @aishasherri yes! absolutely! but I suggest you start with an 8% or 12.5% strength first. Try doing 6 treatments, waiting 2 weeks between treatments. It works wonders. I am a black woman & I started with a Lactic acid peel, which faded my stretchmarks and eliminated hyperpigmentation on my elbows & a few scars on my legs. It's amazing stuff.

  • Great tutorial video! Thanks so much! I was wondering? I have dark pigment around my lips from putting straight tea tree oil on my face by accident 13 years ago when I was 17! Sometimes they are hardly noticed, but other times they are and make me look older than I am. Will an 8% or 12.5% be okay for that?

  • Very helpful!!!!

  • Nice Vid!!! You are very good at explaining!! Thanks very informative :)

  • is it ok to start out with a 12.5% peel?

  • @wonderful4life that's what I recommend.

  • Hey I love ur video, please can you help me out with something, I am brown skin, but my elbow is a little dark could almost be black, would a TCA peel, work, and how strong do you think I should go, please I would really appreciate your help/answer, thank you very

  • I think I spent like 80 bucks on these two peels,( tca& jessner)and neither worked. I think next tim I just cough up the 200$ and go to the dermatologist and get 1 proper peel.

  • I have bought the tca and the jessner peel from makeupartistchoice, but I have to say they are both very weak. All the 21% tca did to my skin after proper application was, to turn it red a bit, but no peeling or flaking what so ever. The jessner seems better to me, although it stinks and after the first application I literally got dizzy and weak, with a bad headache for hours. I dont know if it really is as pure as it should be when you buy stuff from these on-line places.

  • I have a questions. I've never used any sort of chemical peel before. Is it okay to start with a TCA peel at the lowest percentage or should you use AHA peel first and let your skin get used to using strong substances on your skin?

  • @SnowLeopard7 Hmm idk. You should be fine starting with an 8% TCA peel.

  • can you use this if you have acne? will it help get rid of it?

  • omg. NEVER apply 100% tca unless you live close to a hospital. it can scar you.

  • I did a test part, and it is taking weeks so far to peel. I see they say something about baking soda but I didnt do that part, cause I didnt see you do it.

  • Hey honey...if you're in NYC can you help me with my peel. I was thinking about going to a spa but they want me to pay $150 :( what should I do?

  • Thank you very much for this video!

  • love your videos

  • hey but you never stated for how long should it be rinse off and the appliance of any other cream

  • after you apply tca peel ,should i apply any other cream or i should leave it like that??

  • where can i get one??

  • I just purchased 100% TCA whats the difference?

  • Don't do this yourself go to a Beauty Clinic.

  • hey i recently purchased a 15% TCA peel from MUAC and was reading a lot about it and some people were saying to "degrease" your face first by rubbing alcohol/acetone on your face after washing but before the peel? Is this really a necessary step in order to achieve good results? Great vid btw!!! Also, what would you put on right after the peel?

    -J

  • alcohol? omg that doesnt sound like a good idea

  • tca peel will not lighten your skin.

    if you want a skin lightener/brghtener do not use crazy chemicals instead use natural stuff like lemon juice,cucumber juice um...papaya soap, glutathione soap(glutathione is found in the body so it's100% safe)

    and make sure you exfoliate and use sunscreen i would say spf 70 the least

    im naturally light skin so i don't really need to do any of those things but exfoliate and use sunscreen

    hope this helped

    (^_^)

  • i am dark brown skin whatevah you refer to it as lol i hav minor acne dark spots on my forhead&oily skin&a little acne on my cheeks &forehead what kind of peel do you suggest? should i even get one? what percent? & where can i buy one?

  • Your constant disclaimers on the proper usage of the TCA Peel get you a 5Star, IMHO. Great job!

  • I saw a video about tca peels and they were being performed by like 2 doctors in an office procedure and they were putting it right under the eyes.

  • can i use ths on other parts of my body besides my face?

  • is there a complete tutorial on peels i purchased a tca 50% it says to dilute it and it does have directions but it's not that simple i tired in on my arm and i look like i burnt myself i have acne scariing what do i do

  • i Want 1!

    But your Skin looks Great!

    did u Buy yours over the Internet?

  • Comment removed

  • it only light skin that has been darkened by the sun or if u have age spots... It will make you as light as you can be but you wont get lighter than your original skin tone

  • I used it at 50% if not higher. It hurt like the dickenzeebum!

  • One of the Cautions:

    Do not use if you tend to keloid

    Question:I hav hypertrophic scar (keloid) in my forearm like penny tho i dont have any in my Face (from acne or Pox) but Pox and Acne scar marks,

    i hav this tiny keloid that nervous me (i got the keloid when i was young vacination in other country)

  • I don't think this will get rid of Keloids. From the site I got mine from it says it won't get rid of keloid scarring.

  • I have a question I have used an 18% TCA peel and I didn't see no frosting or any kind of affect. Is that normal ? Because I was thinking whether it worked out or not.

  • Hmm..that is kind of weird. Did you notice any differences in your skin texture over the next few days?

  • I actually did it today and what I did see was the skin looked more wrinkled O.o But very slightly but the skin remained it's color. I left it around 5 mins as instructed and when I put the baking soda mixed with water I started to feel a sting but it couldv'e been just the baking soda. The skin looks fine now, didn't turn red or anything.

  • chemical peels dont do much for black people

  • you know...I'm not totally sure. But I think they would work great on legs. I have heard of TCA peels being used to lighten tattoos...so I would assume they are pretty versatile pees. If you DO end up trying it on your legs...let me know! :-)

  • I am black and I am a bit darker than you. Maybe a shade but I have a lot of hyperpigmentation which has went down from the 15% TCA peel but I am considering getting the 18% TCA peel for my hyperpigmentation? Have you ever tried it? What do you think it would do since I am black?

  • Geez Im so glad you did this. Because I wanted to get this done by a professional. Ide rather do it at home! Thanks!

  • y havnt i heard of this before. iv seen som before and after pictures of people using it nd it did magic. if this is that good y dont people just use this instead of proactive? it does treat pimples rite?

  • Where do you get that stuff?

  • hey i've never had a skin peel done before do you think i should start off with 8% and move up? i have tan skin and i'm a latino with a bit of scarring what do you suggest i do?

  • I would suggest you seek an experienced dermatologist who performs TCA peel. This is something very strong and can lead to permanent scarring if done wrongly. You don't want to take such a risk by doing it yourself...trust me on this.

  • And?

  • this guy is gay or something good video anyways

  • whats the difference between glycolic and tricholoroacetic? which is better?

  • 3-5 x glycolic = 1 x tricholoroacetic

    do the math :]

    i do suggest u use glycolic first before using TCA. 'cuz it'll burn ur skin off if u're not used to ur skin exfoliating, yet

  • ur so cute! thanks 4 the info, u just got a new sub. i just ordered some lactic acid and Glycolic acid. i have some scars that i know will need a TCA but i'm scared. i think i might have to go to the spa for that, my complexion is slightly darker than yours so i don't want to risk further scaring.

  • How long do you leave it on for? How do you remove it?

  • i bought 10% tca peel. do i only apply this on the first day of the treatment or every day until the skin peels off?

  • where did u get that jelly.

  • u can get at any sephora store

  • Okay so I see it works for you. But I have heard that many people of darker skin tone can scar as a result of peels. So in general, would you recommend the 12.5% TCA for other brown skinned people?

  • Well, I am not necessarily "dark skinned" so I guess that's why it worked well for me. I do have to admit the 21% DID cause a bit of scarring on me. Way too powerful. I think its best for people of color to stick to Glycolic, Lactic, and Gly-lactic peels.

  • thanks for the help.

  • Wow youre good. Im so buying that peel (and telling them u sent me) lol :) thx.

  • thanks for the info.. I'm buying the peel as we speak. Keep up the video's!

  • Make sure to tell them Skineficial sent you!

  • Thanks for making this video it's helpful. It seems like using a small brush would distribute the acid more evenly and quickly than cuetips.

    Also, I have read about other people using TCA under eyes to get rid of fine lines. They didn't report any problems with doing this.

    As far as the severity of the peeling, were you stuck in your house for several days afterwards?

  • Well, I SHOULD'VE been stuck around the house for a few days. Like an idiot, I went to the park with my friend twice. It didn't do any visibly permanent damage, but it was EXTREMLY discomforting.

    And yes, this peel can be used under the eyes I just reccommend you be very careful if you're going to get that close to some organs that can be greatly damaged by chemical acids.

  • Very helpful video, thanks so much!
