Get answers to common questions about TCA Peels.

TCA peels use trichloroacetic acid to penetrate deep into the skin, promoting cell turnover and revealing a smoother layer beneath, improving overall appearance.

During the TCA peel, a chemical solution is applied to your skin. You may feel a tingling sensation, followed by a slight stinging, which is normal.

Recovery can vary, but generally, most clients experience peeling and redness for about 5 to 7 days post-treatment before revealing improved skin.

TCA peels are versatile but may be more suitable for certain skin types. A consultation will help determine if it's right for you.

Typically, TCA peels can be safely performed every 4 to 6 weeks, depending on your skin's condition and the depth of the peel.

Common side effects include redness, peeling, and slight discomfort. Serious side effects are rare but can occur; consult with Dr. Perlman for specifics.
