Hello all,

I am currently struggling with PIH and possible shallow scarring (not too sure). I've been reading posts on the forum for a couple of months now and I still have not found all the answers I need regarding lactic acid peels.

I know they are extremely beneficial, but before embarking on this journey I had a couple of newbie questions:

1) What is a good percentage to start at when first starting chemical peels (especially for Indian skin)?
2) How effective are they at reducing shallow scarring?
3) How many applications does it take to see a difference?
4) How long should you leave it on for? How many days apart should you do the peel?

Any advice would be much appreciated! Thanks
