Sorry I know the lights are different here, I am struggling to get a good picture because of the time of day. It is hard to see in the photo, but they are MUCH shallower/wider. The first picture is fr...

how long has it been since the tca cross peeled off ? Around a month, and about three days since the 30% peeled off. Will post new pics to my original thread. Just wondering if anyone else experienc...

I am having a lot of improvement with the tca cross method. Scars are most definitely shallower, I would say around about 50%, but all of those scars seem to be wider. I have areas on my skin where ...

Excellent, thank you!

No such thing as "deep cleaning". Nothing gets deep down into the pore. I find I have to do several washes with cetaphil, and it won't remove makeup at all. Other products do a better job. I want ...

Thanks Morgo. And yep, I have yet to purchase a vit c serum that isn't colored with a yellow tinge to mask the breakdown. I make it at 20%, keep it in a dark bottle and in a cool place. It stays s...

I have been using Cetaphil face wash and am really happy with it. I usually do a light lactic & glycolic peel once a week, that seems to give me a deep clean. I would like to give the light peel...

My skin type heals incredibly well. I did TCA cross about 10 days after a 30% tca peel- no problems. All of my scabbing fell off within a week after. The deeper ice pick scars are rather red, but mu...

estee lauder double wear is my number 1 go to product for coverage. I seriously can make a red inflamed face look flawless with this stuff. There are quite a few products out there, but I even find t...

I just went to ebay looked at the mid price range and looked at reviews.

I have been making my own for quite awhile. I make a really plain version and just use ascorbic acid and distilled water. I like to do this so I can make a weeks worth at a time and don't have to wor...

Thanks timely. Yeah I will make sure I leave a decent amount of time between. I am going to stop the full face tca peels until I am finished with the tca crosses. I was thinking I will still to the b...

I would say single needle, especially if your skin between the scars is reasonably smooth. In my experience my skin became ripply from rolling. It was much smoother prior. It did help my scars- but...

Just curious, what has been your experience with the full face TCA peels? Did you use them for scars? Here is my thread from yesterday with my use of tca full face. I use 30% solutions, and have ha...

I do for sure understand the premise, and agree that waiting longer is beneficial. But still don't quite understand why in this study they would do it fortnightly and reference such drastic improvemen...

it takes 6 month to see full results so i wouldnt do it right after tca peel because even though it peeled its still not healed yet Just a bit confused with why the study would do it at two weekly i...

ok so did a bit of reading on the cross method i use 100% tca on an icepick scar and make sure not to hit the edges of the icepick scar just literally only the middle of the icepick scar. and you do t...

Well i know the area is meant to be a bit redder for a while afterwards, but i've never heard of anyone's scars merging together... TCA can, depending on the scar, take a few sessions (like 3?) and so...

I am a bit concerned here because it really does seem that my skin texture has become worse. I noticed

link is from a study and they did it at 2 week intervals since im guessing it heals better than a full peel Thank you for that. One thing I did notice was how less intensive the cross is than the fu...

I have had great sucess with full face tca peels at 2 monthly intervals. A few weeks ago I went ahead and tried the tca cross, and so far I do see some improvement. I was wondering about frequency- ...
