Power Peel (TCA, Jessner)
What is TCA Peel?
TCA peel is a chemical procedure that exfoliates the skin. There is a range of exfoliation depth, and it varies from superficial to medium to deep, where superficial peels work only on the top layer of skin and deep and medium and deep peels penetrate the upper to mid dermis. The strength of TCA peel can be determined with your esthetician depending on the condition of your skin. When applied to the skin, TCA peel exfoliates over the course of several days after the treatment, making way for a smoother and younger new layer of skin.
