Hi!

I've recently started getting into chemical peels at home after spending way too much money at the spas! I've done wonders on my face, but I recently tried a 30% TCA peel on my back. I tried the 15% formula many times on my back, without any peeling. I know the face peels much faster, I'm usually done peeling within a week. I currently have dark brown marks (flat burn-like) patches all over my back. I started the treatment on Thursday of last week..I was hoping it would peel and be done within a week. Does anyone have any experience or similar situations they've been through?? Thanks for your help!

I have read from plastic surgeons that the back generally doesnt respond as well as the face. i have done the 30% peel on my upper back and it did take a bit longer to peel. as far as results... i can't really tell

What ended up happening to your back?

lastmonth my esthetician did a Jessner followed by a tca30%. It burned me and Im left with hyperpigmentation all over my back. Its slowly fading but Im so nervous it wont go away. Did you end up treating your skin completely?
