I love rotating my acids, as your video taught me, "Keep Your Skin Guessing" & that tid bit of information has been effective in my skin care journey! Thx for all your great videos! I do have 1 quick question, During my in-between time of my peel schedule, if I start to feel or see a bump forming, I dab Salicylic with a qtip only on that spot.... Is that ok? It seems to be working at keeping skin clear & no reactions, but just thought I'd get your professional opinion? Thx again!

There will always be a bit of overlapping as you work the acid onto your skin in a pattern. It's fine. Nothing to worry about. I would rather see some overlapping instead of you missing areas entirely. 😊

Thanks for the great video on TCA! On some websites I am reading, it says that you need to dilute the TCA with water, this will make it have less side effects. Should I do this? Or just apply the TCA solution by itself, not diluted with anything? I am currently using a 15% solution. Thanks!

I have a question jennifer. I am black and have acne scarring on my back and shoulder. I prepped my skin with fade bright and melanin inhibitor for six weeks. I also washed my skin with soap and water and then cleaned it with alcohol. I did not spot treat, I applied the skin peel 50 percent on my right deltoid (shoulder area). I waited a few days and saw no frosting and no peeling. I felt a slight tingling/warming sensation when I applied but just the area closest to the arm pit got dry and flaked a little. No peeling. Did I do something wrong? What would you recommend?

@PlatinumSkinCare

Hello. You applied a 50% what? Glycolic? TCA? We do not manufacture a 50% TCA... so I can not help you with that. What is normal though on the body... is a peel taking 30 days to exfoliate. Don't expect to see anything for a good 10-14 days.

I see that aftercare often consists of using an ointment such as aquaphor. As someone prone to blackheads I worry about applying a thick grease to my skin. Can this cause clogged pores in your fresh new skin?

You definitely do not need to use an aquaphor after TCA. It is very heavy and occlusive. A non-comedogenic oil is best and some SPF. We recommend our pure Emu oil or our Essentials Healing Blend.

Hello- do you have a video or explanation about hyppigmentation that results from a TCA chemical peel and what to use to regain pigment?

Any thoughts? Need help plz !!!

@PlatinumSkinCare

4 ай бұрын

HypOpigmentation then? The lack of pigment. This can happen any time you get a strong inflammatory response. Bites, wounds, acids, needling, lasers especially! Usually, if you just treat it kindly, and let a few months go by - an acute issue like this will return to normal. Vitix is to treat vitiligo - which is when the skin's melanin is being targeted by their own body and the person starts to get white spots. I am not sure if this would help - but, it certainly could be a possibility if your doctor says so.

I would Absolutely any skin type can get PIH... so, no matter what that is always an option. If you have darker skin it jumps to a much higher probability. Using the inhibitors bring you back down to the regular potential of a lighter skinned person. I would generally suggest it if your skin is olive toned or darker to be as safe as possible. *Yes, the hyperpigmentation can be treated -- basically with the same thing you would have prepped with. It can take several months to go away though.

Most likely you used a retinoid/retinA too close to your application .. or, strong acids/did a scrub... We need to stop all of that 4-6 days prior to a TCA peel. Nonetheless... You have plenty of time. While those areas received a DEEPER peel than you anticipated - generally this will just flake right off. Brown coloring is just dead skin. Keep it hydrated well with the Serum and some Aquaphor until it flakes. 7-10 days to complete the sloughing process. :)

Hello. I highly suggest to avoid applying TCA 30 on that tattoo. *Not because it isn't used to lighten tattoos... but because it could cause PIH in your skin and then instead of just having a tattoo you don't like... you will have dark patches all over the area... OR light patches. This is something I would leave to the professionals. That ink is very deep. If you want to you can try some peels, but I suggest ONLY the TCA 13 or 20 ... after the Fade Bright for 2+ weeks first to help prevent PIH. Apply layers and remember that it will take 10-14 days before you Start to get dry or flake. The body is much slower than the face. It will be a month before this peel has completed. :)

Hey, I want to place an order for the TCA peel, I've watched all your peel videos and even went through your answers to questions people left in the comments.

Start with the 13% at 1-2 layers your first time. Then, in about 2 weeks do your next one with 1-3 layers *working your way up to 5 *if you wish. Hello. You will only apply your TCA in ONE session... not over the course of days. Leave this go and next month when you are going to do another peel.

Melanin inhibitors such as Fade Bright and retinoids daily. SPF 50 always to protect against more. Stay ON a melanin inhibitor if you are wanting to do another peel that is stronger in the future. Preparation is so helpful.

Give it some time to be treated with your daily topicals. Milder peels like mandelic and lactic are also helpful. I would think you are OK for a Co2 laser... but you might need to wait another week. Ask your technician that either performed the CROSS or is going to perform the Co2.

I recommend a Lactic 50 Peel for your skin . Lactic is excellent for dry skin with pigmentation issues. Lactic 50 should be applied 1 x per week for a series of 8 weeks to see the best results. Consistency is key.

Good day! I just got done with my 40% glycolic acid peel ( at 4 minutes ), and got very very light micropeeling, and barely any results after 14 days. Question: how long should I wait to do a 20% TCA ( I usually do 3 to 4 layers every 2 to 3 months, and those give me great results ). I am 34 years old, fair skin, and working with hyperpigmentation and a bit of texture. Thank you in advance!

2 weeks is plenty of waiting time after Glycolic. So go ahead and do your TCA 20% but be sure to wait at least 4-5 weeks after a TCA to use any other peel.

TCA 50% on ethnic skin is NOT safe. You now have PIH. We recommend a lower % and to also PREtreat the skin with a melanin inhibitor for 2-3 weeks prior. Right now you need to use those products to help reverse this. See: www.platinumskincare.com/so-you-ended-up-with-pih

You can definitely do the 15%. I would suggest 2 layers. Make sure you are also using SPF 50 every single day - or this is all for naught. A melanin inhibitor 2x per day (like our Fade Bright) will also be very helpful. Daytime,.... just apply FB and then top with your SPF 50. Night time,... FB and then Retinol .20. That is a simple and effective regimen for your pigmentation. Then your peel monthly. *Jessners is another stronger peel that is very helpful for pigmentation.

Generally speaking - the tattoo is put into the dermis. Most times you do a TCA peel you are not reaching those depths. It would need to be a stronger % to reach that deep - or many layers.

Absolutely NOT! Not even close. Don't make the mistake of comparing a % of one acid to the % in another acid. That is like saying an Orange and a Steak are the same.

If you were using Salicylic 30, you can safely move to TCA 13 at 2 layers. *PRETREAT with a melanin inhibitor if you have fitzpatrick 4-6 for 4 weeks first.
