TCA Peel and Facial Hair

[jim808 0]

I guess this question is for the guys, however I'm open to the ladies thoughts and Ideas.

I'm contemplating getting a TCA peel to treat my shallow scars. Just a passing thought, but how will my facial hair affect my skin. Once the skin starts crusting wil the hair be able to penetrate the skin or will it get stuck, kind of like in grown hairs. I was just worried that it may cause a breakout . Sounds a bit odd, but how about your experience?

Lol, that's a good question. If you are prone to getting ingrown hairs, you should probably not shave for a couple days before the peel just to make sure. And of course not at all until the peel has...peeled. I am not basing this on specific knowledge fyi, just regular old guy wisdom.
