What should you know about dermedik tca peel?

Short answer
Dermedik TCA peel is a clinician-applied chemical peel that removes controlled layers of skin, so strength, skin type, and aftercare must be assessed carefully.
This answers one question. It is not a diagnosis and does not replace an assessment by a licensed doctor.

How a TCA peel works
Trichloroacetic acid causes a controlled chemical injury to the skin. Depending on its formulation and application, it can help address selected changes in texture, acne-related marks, uneven tone, or sun-related roughness. A stronger peel reaches deeper and needs more recovery, while a lighter approach may be used in a series.
Melasma and post-inflammatory hyperpigmentation require particular caution because inflammation can deepen or trigger pigment changes, especially in darker skin tones. A clinician should assess active acne, eczema, infection, cold sores, and recent procedures before treating.
Before and after the peel
Discuss retinoids, exfoliating acids, hair removal, isotretinoin history, cold sores, scarring, and any planned sun exposure. Do not apply a peel at home or combine it with unapproved products.
After treatment, follow the exact cleansing and moisturising plan. Peeling, tightness, redness, and sensitivity may develop; do not pull flaking skin. Use broad sun protection, avoid heat and friction, and wait for the clinician’s clearance before restarting active skincare.
When to seek care
Contact the clinic promptly for severe pain, extensive blistering, rapidly worsening redness, pus, fever, facial swelling, or eye symptoms. Seek review for pigment changes or delayed healing that continue to worsen rather than gradually settle.
Questions for your doctor
What depth and formulation suit my skin and concern, what recovery should I plan for, and how will you reduce the risk of pigment change? Which products must I stop and restart?

Questions people ask
Can a TCA peel treat every dark mark?
No. The cause of pigmentation matters, and inflammation from a peel can worsen some pigment conditions.
Can I peel the skin off after treatment?
No. Let flaking skin shed naturally and follow the recommended cleansing and moisturising routine.
