WHAT IS A TCA CHEMICAL PEEL
THE PROCEDURE
RECOVERY TIME

A TCA peel (Trichloroacetic Acid) is an exfoliating treatment designed to remove the superficial layers of the skin. This process not only eliminates dead and damaged skin cells but also stimulates cellular regeneration and collagen production, revealing a fresher, more youthful complexion.
The treatment lasts approximately 30 minutes and begins with cleansing and preparing the skin. The TCA solution is then carefully applied to the face and left on for a specific period. During the application, patients may feel a slight burning or tingling sensation. After the session, the skin may appear red and start to peel over the following days, revealing smoother, rejuvenated skin beneath.
Although post-procedure rest is not required, proper skin care is essential for optimal healing. This includes keeping the skin well moisturized and protected from sun exposure. Dr. Castaldo provides precise post-treatment instructions to ensure the best results.

HOW DOES IT WORK?

TCA peeling uses trichloroacetic acid to produce controlled exfoliation of the skin’s superficial layers. The treatment promotes cell renewal and stimulates collagen production, helping to improve skin texture, pigmentation, unevenness and fine lines. The concentration and depth of the peel are tailored to the patient’s skin characteristics and individual needs.

BENEFITS OF TCA PEELING

Reduction of Fine Lines and Wrinkles: TCA peeling smooths the skin, reducing the appearance of wrinkles and fine lines.

Improvement of Skin Discolouration: Effective in reducing dark spots caused by ageing and sun exposure.

Skin Regeneration: Stimulates the production of new skin cells and collagen, improving the skin’s elasticity and texture.

Suitable for All Skin Types: Safe and effective for different skin types, including acne-prone skin.

SPECIALIST CONSULTATION

Before undergoing a TCA peel, a specialist consultation with Dr Castaldo is essential. During the consultation, the patient’s skin type, skin condition and aesthetic goals will be assessed to determine the appropriate peel concentration and customise the treatment.

HOW DOES IT WORK?

TCA causes controlled exfoliation by removing the top layers of skin, which in turn triggers the natural regeneration process. This results in new, healthy skin with improved tone, texture, and elasticity.
