(More customer reviews)After online research, I got a good price on this 20% TCA Peel for my home use. I had paid $250 from a dermatologist for the treatments previously and advise first timers to go to a professional as there are pretty dramatic and scary effects. Since I had observed and noted the steps and suffered the effects with good results before, and wanted to do at least 4 a year, I attempted to do the peel at home with this product. After online purchase it was shipped promptly with instructions that are useful. Enough solution was provided for 10 treatments. WARNING This process is not for the squeamish. When applied for full efficacy, your face will be burned and look MUCH MUCH worse for the first few days. I applied the solution to my whole face excluding forehead. I CAREFULLY got close enough to my eyes to cover the bags and circles. I applied twice until I got the "frosting" white layer (means the layers of your skin which are targeted to be removed have been sufficiently burned). The solution HURTS HURTS for about 1-3 minutes. If you have a low pain tolerance you might get freaked out, but it goes away rapidly. Then for a day you look like a bad sunburn, then a light "scab" forms on the treated areas. I looked like the mummy. Super ugly. This "scab" then cracks and slowly peels by about day 4-5. The light pink skin underneath is slightly swollen so it looks like a fresh young skin. I applied antibiotic ointment thoroughly every day and completely stayed out of the sun. By day 5-6 I could go out to the store. By 7 I let my boyfriend see me. Figure about 6-7 days you cannot go to work or really see anyone you want to see you in a good light 'cause you'll be ugly baby! BUT is it worth it? ABSOLUTLEY YES! I am 56 and had lots of sun damage, discoloration, dark circles, pigmentation. THis was my 3rd treatment in 1.5 years and even though the dermotologist said I should do it every 3 months for a year and then less -- I still see great results. My skin is clear and fewer lines. After 3 weeks my friends said it was "dewey" and want me to do them too. Two tips I learned help this treatment: 1) 4-8 weeks before use a retin or glycolic cream daily and bleach cream (I found AMBI in a Dollar General for $5). This prepares the skin to go deep and also to prevent scars from pigmentation that could occur as a result of the treatment. I used the AMBI and antibiotic ointment 3-4 times a day ON THE BURN for same reason. DO NOT use the retin or glycolic after the treatment at all as those would prevent healing. 2) STAY OUT OF THE SUN after the treatment COMPLETELY for weeks and wear sunblock immediately and for EVER. Good Luck!
