EASY PEEL TCA
The TCA peel removes the upper layers of the skin which are the layers that are normally damaged by the elements such as the sun, wind, and stress. When the upper layer of the skin is removed, the overall skin texture becomes smooth. The superficial wrinkles and the colour irregularities are improved. One of the advantages of this peel is its pasty texture. This makes applying the treatment easy. It also ensures an even distribution of the treatment over the skin. Patients will have a more vibrant and fresh appearance after the treatment.
The TCA peel has been used for several years already. It has been used to treat facial wrinkles, age spots, pregnancy effects, sun-damaged skin, and pigment abnormalities. Pre-cancerous lesions, freckles, acne scars, fine lines, and wrinkles can also be successfully treated with the TCA peel.
The TCA Peel is one of the most innovative ways to rejuvenate the skin. When it is applied to the skin, the top layers of skin cells are peeled off over several days. When the old skin has peeled off, it will expose a new layer of undamaged skin. This layer of skin is smoother and has a more even colour.
How is the treatment done?
TCA treatment is done in a single session of around fifteen to thirty minutes. In this period, you will experience a slight burning sensation. The sensation is barely noticeable that anaesthesia need not be applied. Several treatment sessions may be required before you can achieve the desired results.
Post Care
At the end of the treatment, you will be given an information leaflet. This acts as a reference card for post-treatment care and optimisation of your treatment. Your skin will be sensitive to sunlight after every treatment so try avoiding the sun. Wear sunscreen and hats to avoid strong sunlight. After your treatment, you can go back to work and carry on with your usual daily routine, as there is no redness or flaking to your skin. However you may want to minimize socializing for the next few days until the dead cells are completely shed off. It is advisable to moisturize the skin regularly and wear sun protection cream at all times.
