#1. Please don't do any other treatments (ie dermaplaning, microderm, rolling...) prior to a tca peel. Always do just a single swipe across the area you are applying this peel to. Don't go back over and over at that point. One swipe and move onto the next area. You will ALWAYS wait 5 minutes in between each layer. Apply a single swipe over your entire area to treat ..... wait 5 minutes and then decide if you want to apply a 2nd layer once the peel has coagulated the skin's proteins. *You may only do a single layer in your peel. That is Perfect. There is no need to add more layers if you aren't ready for more flaking than a single layer is giving you. :)

[@All_about_relationships_tips]

thank you for the tip :o)

[@fireflieszx]

After the 4th layer do we rinse our face right away or wait 5 minutes to let it take effect?

[@PlatinumSkinCare]

@@fireflieszx Always wait 5 minutes after application. Then you can rinse well with cold water to soothe the skin.

[@deejay1216]

Hi, great video! I am interested in trying this peel. Do I need to have a license in order to buy the products?

[@PlatinumSkinCare]

@@All_about_relationships_tips Happy to help!

[@karapelletier2866]

BRAVE SOUL to do 4 layers of 20% TCA at once! I do my TCA one layer at a time, waiting 3-5 minutes in between each layer and use the hairdryer in between. That allows me to recover from the pain a bit and to see if I have frosting. I love TCA, LOVE IT, but it cannot be neutralized. TCA will stop on its own once it has completed its protein interaction with each layer (takes about 4-8 minutes). This also means that the more TCA liquid you put on the skin the more proteins in the skin it has to interact with. So if you wet your gauze a little more there is more acid and it tends to burn more. Could be why you felt more pain this time, perhaps you used a little more acid and your peel might have gone a little deeper. A few minutes after your final layer, you can splash cold water on your face until the burning stops, works great!

[@philfallacci4833]

Thank you for sharing your expertise!

[@missyl3119]

That's how it's meant to be done- light layers, and 5 min between layers

[@J.E.C.]

There is no reason to wait between the layers or use a hairdryer, why to torture yourself. I apply all layers at once and pain stops in less than a minute on its own.

[@fireflieszx]

After the 4th layer do we rinse our face right away or wait 5 minutes to let it take effect?

[@KS-wr4vv]

I usually just do 1 layer of 30% it’s on about 2 mins before I see splotches of face frosts and then I take it off. I have thick tough skin the the highest strength of retin a doesn’t phase me. I would only suggest this for similar skin types or seasoned peelers. But I’d rather have more intense pain for less time I think. I’m not sure if the 30 is more painful or not. I assume it would be . I know when see dra do it they wait till the skin is like opaque white everywhere. I haven’t been able to get such an even frost. I think when things start frosting I start to panic. I imagine I will get better and perhaps less fearful. But you do have to be careful this isn’t a joke. But man imagine paying 1,000 in office for this ?

[@lilmissunshine83]

Friendly warning: You should only apply one layer of TCA wait 3-5 minutes and possibly apply a second layer. You don’t want to swipe multiple times over an area that builds up the acid and penetrates deep into the skin.

[@TomScala-jk6tv]

Leah you are a blessing and I love listening to your videos!

[@seanmaher2987]

Well done - I'm on day 3 after my Platinum 20% TCA, so I know exactly how that feels!

[@robinmurray413]

Thank you for posting this. It gave me the courage to do 3-layer peel with nice frosting. (I've done TCA before, but it's been a while.) It does hurt, but the results are amazing, especially on hyperpigmentation spots. Blow dryer is a must!

[@michellecogdill6128]

Yes ma'am!! I have to have a blow-dryer also lol!! It burns like crazzzy 🥵😂 but worth every bit of it in the end!! God bless 😊❤️

[@ToniaNicole]

I love watching self care videos like this girl I just ordered mine today 13% 2oz ik it’s going to sizzle my neck but I’m going to use it on my face neck hands and arms

Great video! Love it

[@somechick941]

Hello! The peel seemed to have reduced nasolabial and marionette lines. Did the results last??

[@Syynn6]

Though not as risky as phenol- you can get an arythmia or go into shock as a reaction to pain. I’m going to do this but one area at a time.. people can have strokes from peels/tattoos/sunburn bc the body goes into fight or flight and can start pumping adrenaline. My friend had intense microneedling done and ended up in the ER bc of her heart. She was ok but they told her the reaction to pain on the face which is sensitive and it was such a large area including her neck she could have had a stroke

[@carolpowell2199]

Wow! I was cringing watching you. Think I might start on my hands first. There is another channel I follow: It Hurts To Be Beautiful, reminds of this TCA peel! Love ur channel💕

[@ambercallaway9459]

Oh babe this is exactly what I look like doing a peel except I don't forget how bad it is lol. They are my least favourite DIY procedure but they do produce fantastic results.

[@LenaMMcKee]

I did the exact same thing in the exact same area for the exact same reason now I still have a little bit of hyperpigmentation there where it's more sensitive and tends to tan darker little small patch around the jar

[@All_about_relationships_tips]

Yes, My spots were darker after the peel and then went away after two months ;O)

[@MariRodriUK]

I totally use numbing cream first!! You did great though! Nice frost!!!

[@Nelle_LaLa]

Hi! What kind of numbing cream di you use??

[@savannahstevens1325]

Following this . I have a high pain tolerance, however I have never done a chemical peel , so I don’t know what to expect as far as pain goes.

[@Jolenedream84]

This was my question for peels, do you start the timer as soon as you start applying it? Or do you start the time once it’s on?

[@laurabennett9865]

Did you have sheeting exfoliation at any time after the peel?

[@Sunrisecan]

Great video!! And you’re so beautiful ☺️

[@All_about_relationships_tips]

thank you!!!

[@ofelialepe5252]

When you cut yourself peel it of last piece how long it took you to heal

Best way to cool face in my area: stick a fan in the window facing/blowing in and run to it after each pass over skin to let cold/frigid Canadian winter air cool the stinging down right away! Works the best!!

[@kayladawn9486]

Amazing video! Where can i find the active skin repair spray?

[@wildlifepk]

Should I do tca on hyperpigmentation areas on my face I'm afraid it will make pigmentation more darker

[@blondeballer19]

I just did mine and I didn't even last a minute, I rinsed it off immediately not only that but I also frosted immediately.

[@Aacuna24]

Did you numb the area first at all?

[@gennimae3710]

Damn, I don't think I've ever seen a frost like that 😳

[@denisenj7648]

You do not need a neutralizer with TCA. It stops working automatically after about 5 minutes. Then you can do another layer or rinse with cold water.

[@Jolenedream84]

Did you get fillers or anything else for your nosalobial folds? Or is that just from the peel? Sorry I watched this video many months ago and just scrolled through again so I can’t remember if it was stated in the video

[@erikareed3098]

Can you numb with topical lidocaine first?

Dang girl you were suppose to layer each application and leave on for 2 minutes before the next application. You were lucky your skin was able to handle it. Lol

[@user_noway]

my skin doesn't peel its 4th day. idk why... :(

Using a cold towel is what I might do

I did not buy the neutralizer. What can I use instead of a neutralizer?

[@jenniferreynoso8231]

Baking soda and water

[@okav.7364]

I use for first time tcl 20%, the day after U have spots, is it normal?

[@All_about_relationships_tips]

hyperpigmentation can happen on dark spots after a peel. Should calm down over time. Tretinoin is great for evening skin tone. reliablerx.com has it for super cheap

[@J.E.C.]

yes, peel "pulls out" pigment excess from a deeper skin layer to skin surface.

[@tanyaflynn4908]

Great video! I want to microblade in the A.M. then do 15% TCA before bed. TCA really does feel like 🔥 The results are worth the pain and ugly skin for a week. Lol.

Definitely worth it!

[@arabrablynn]

do you have to use a neutralizer ?

[@All_about_relationships_tips]

yes

[@PlatinumSkinCare]

Water only. TCA is self-neutralizing

[@michellecogdill6128]

Save your money and just mix baking soda and water if you need the burning to stop real fast and don't wanna wait until it neutralizes itself in like 5 minutes or so on its own. 😊

TCA is sel-neutralizing. There is no neutralizer needed. Just wash off skin with COLD water to soothe. Then apply your after care products. @@cheekymonkeygirl3378

[@heatherhiatt6141]

i don't believe you need to neutralize tca peels. Also, you did multiple layers (3-4) without waiting. You are lucky that you didn't scar!

I thought these peels are self-neutralising.

Try the Ordanry red peel use twice a week look online for the ordinary

You can’t even compare these two peels… The Ordinary does like… nothing… but it’s definitely safer for the beginner.

Do you have to stop your retin a a few days before/after the peel?

Does the chemical peel kit come with the neutralizer because I don't see a link to get the neutralizer

[@All_about_relationships_tips]

no, you purchase it separately :o)

[@bonniefiona7943]

just baking soda dissolved in water will also neutralize just as good as anything if gets too painful and layer up please. Be remiss not mention moisturize moisturize after. and again vaseline or really Neosporin (what I do) after.Be careful to just pat the skin.

[@DeeDee-rr3sn]

Hey there. I'm considering doing one of these peels, but I was curious why you didn't use a numbing cream prior? I've seen several videos where some people/women numbed first. Also do you know much about this brand? I've done a little research and can't find much about the brunette that owns the company. She has a background in interior design and nothing in skin care, which kind of makes me leery.

[@All_about_relationships_tips]

I really should numb. I'm usually in a hurry and don't take the time to numb up :o)

[@bloodandfireministries2583]

I actually never use a numbing cream before because I want the acid to penetrate the skin and the numbing cream might provide an extra barrier the acid has to work through just my thoughts though

[@michellecogdill6128]

​@@bloodandfireministries2583 I don't numb either. I guess you get use to it lol. 😄

Q: why do you need the peel neutralizer?

[@All_about_relationships_tips]

otherwise it will keep burning the skin. I'm not sure if rinsing with water or face wash would stop it as quick

[@J.E.C.]

with TCA you don't need a neutralizer or face rinse, the peel is self-neutralizing.

[@michellecogdill6128]

​@@J.E.C. True but when it's burning bad and you want it to stop BEFORE it neutralizes itself you can use it to hurry up the process and it works great!

[@clawedbychristy6708]

TCA 30% is NOT recommended at all on the face…only the body…no one should really be doing that high percentage…always dilute…I been peeling 3 years and I STILL dilute the 30% to a 12% because #1 i think it hurts so bad (even a 15% hurts me so bad) and #2 I’m too nervous to screw up and scar myself badly somehow even though I know what I’m doing… And yea as they said do not keep going over the same spot multiple times like you did that might’ve made it hurt worse and faster too…I don’t know how you even did that OUCH…I use my air conditioner super cold a blow dryer is so not cold enough for me 😂

[@preman6870]

What to dilute it with?

[@ambermoon1401]

You don't need to do a neutralizer for tca, it doesn't work! Tca stops working on its own, that's why you're supposed to do it in layers if you want a deeper peel. Instead of going up in strength , if you want a deeper peel, before trying a higher strength, try doing 2 or 3 layers but definitely start out with 2 layers and then next time you can do 3 if you wish. You would just add another layer after 5 minutes of the first, you don't rinse or anything, just add the second layer on top of the first. This is also a warning that if you apply tca and it starts burning or something, you can't just rinse or add neutralizer , once it's on its on until it stops working

[@marieJennell]

Do they sell botox?

[@missl849]

No l thing will neutralize TCA, it eats till it’s full. Lol 😂

[@valerie1804]

FRIENDS! Do not do this method at home! As an esthetician I can honestly warn you that this could cause severe damage to someone doing a first time peel or on darker skin tones. The application had way too many passes and way too much pressure. Application should be light pressure without overlapping - single swipe. Then wait 5 minutes to look for frosting. If no frosting, you may proceed with a second layer. Doing a tca in the manner shown could seriously burn someone and cause scarring. I appear as a fitz 3 but I have Native heritage so my skin reacts more like a fitz 4 or 5. 15% tca burned my skin after one layer and I had PIH for months because the provider didn't apply it properly and was overlaying passes. I only burned on the overlaying part and had weird stripe burns after it blistered for several days. Please go watch the Platinum Skin Care tutorials before attempting any chemical peel on yourself.

[@TODOMATIO]

Another girl did 15% and only advices 2 passes. And you definitely did like 5-6 passes and at 20%. So I'm confused now

[@parisandhu552]

Simple thing dear...if u doing on face,don't risk urself see hw it goes with one,thn apply next time in future

[@michellecogdill6128]

She's done them before and her skin she said is tougher so if her skin does okay with 5-6 passes then it's okay. Everyone's different and you have to start with one pass then wait about 4-5 minutes and repeat if necessary. Wait in between passes is best. I've done it both ways and it works the same for me with same results at the end but that's just my skin. 😊

[@imawakemymindisalive13]
