A-A TCA peel, or trichloracetic acid peel, is a medium-depth chemical peel that uses a chemical solution to peel away the top layers of the skin. TCA peels can renew the skin by treating sun damage, uneven pigmentation and fine wrinkling. These peels can be used in various concentrations and strengths and may require more than one treatment.

The purpose of a chemical peel is to remove the layers of dead skin, revealing fresh skin underneath. The body creates new cells to replace the ones that the peel removes. Many medical specialists believe that new collagen is also generated following the peel procedure. In a chemical peel, we apply an alpha hydroxy acid (AHA) or a beta hydroxy acid (BHA) to cleansed skin. The acid is left on for a short time (this depends on the condition of the skin, your tolerance level, etc). See similar questions...
