The advantage of tricholoracetic
(TCA) acid peels is that the degree and depth of penetration
within the skin can be controlled . The concentration of TCA in
the chemical peel is an important factor that alters the depth
of the peel. Concentration can vary from 15 to 35%, with the
higher concentrations leading to a deeper peel.
TCA chemical peels provide an
intermediate level of improvement at an intermediate cost and
recovery period
Peeling and flaking is usually
completed in four to seven days.

Salicylic acid, a common beta
hydroxy acid, has been used for treating acne for decades. In
fact, acne treatment remains the
primary use for beta hydroxy acids. Its effect on the epidermis
and upper dermis are similar to those of Retin-A, but with less
irritation. It is soluble in oil and can exfoliate oily skin
areas, even within oil-rich pores. Therefore, it has a
beneficial effect on acne, pigmentation and sun damaged
skin.
BHAs are effective in reducing
the appearance of fine lines and wrinkles, and improving overall
skin texture, without the occasional irritation associated with
the use of AHAs. BHA is believed to penetrate the skin more
deeply than AHA, and is gentler.

Alpha hydroxy acids work mainly as
an exfoliant. They cause the surface cells of the skin
(epidermis) to become "unglued". This allows skin cells to
slough off, making room for re-growth of younger-looking, new
skin. In addition AHAs stimulate the production of collagen and
elastin. The result is skin that is smooth in appearance and
texture.
Alpha hydroxy acids (AHAs) are the
mildest of the chemical peel formulas and produce light skin
peels. These types of peels can provide smoother,
brighter-looking skin for people who can't spare the time to
recover from the more intense chemical peels.
Please Do Not attempt chemical peels on your own.
Internet-purchased chemicals can be dangerous and result in
life-long pigment changes and scarring.
