It tingles.
Pros:
At-home TCA peel 12.5%. I found this peel on the internet and I love it. It was only about $30 for a 1 ounce bottle (over 10 peels) and I have seen better results than with the lasers for not even a fraction of the cost.
Cons:
With a mild peel only a little bit of peeling and redness. Does take about a week before skin is completely back to normal though.

works wonders on fine lines and hyperpigmentation. It also helps give the skin a nice glow and smooth texture.
Cons:
Can cause discomfort, redness, and moderate to heavy peeling for up to 10 days depending on the person.
Pros:
I used a 12.5% TCA peel at home. It worked well with immediate results. Skin flaked and peeled two days later and then was a little red. Did this on Friday night and Monday morning my skin looked great.
Cons:
Really no cons. I have had professional peels before (5 yrs ago) and knew what to expect. I could have used a stronger peel but wanted to be conservative. Had to layer the peel on brown spots from severe sun damage but that was easily done.
Pros:
I have experienced noticable improvement in my complextion. Smaller pores fine lines have begun to fade and my skin is smoother and more firm.
Cons:
The peels are done at one week intervals and for three days after applying your skin doesnt look so great. So for three days out of seven your complection is worse.
Pros:
reduces wrinkles undereyes and sun spots.
Cons:
you look worse before you get better
Pros:
acne cure, smoother skin, and reduction of pigmentation issues
