The Power of TCA Peels for Acne, Anti-Aging, and Hyperpigmentation

Writer's picture: Dawn AmadorDawn Amador

When it comes to achieving smoother, clearer, and more youthful skin, few treatments are as effective as Trichloroacetic Acid (TCA) peels. This powerful chemical exfoliation treatment has been a staple in skincare for decades, offering transformative results for those struggling with acne, signs of aging, and stubborn hyperpigmentation. At Dawn Amador Advanced Skin Therapy, we specialize in advanced skincare treatments, including TCA peels, to help our clients reveal their most radiant complexion.


What is a TCA Peel?

A TCA peel is a type of chemical peel that utilizes trichloroacetic acid to remove the outer layers of dead skin, promoting cell turnover and collagen production. The strength of a TCA peel can vary, making it customizable to target specific skin concerns and achieve optimal results.


TCA Peels for Acne and Acne Scarring

Acne is one of the most common skin conditions, often leaving behind scars and uneven texture. TCA peels work by penetrating deep into the skin to:


  • Reduce active acne by unclogging pores and eliminating acne-causing bacteria.

  • Diminish acne scars by accelerating skin regeneration and stimulating collagen production.

  • Control oil production, which helps prevent future breakouts.

For those with post-inflammatory hyperpigmentation (PIH) caused by acne, a TCA peel can also help fade dark spots left behind after breakouts.

TCA Peels for Anti-Aging


As we age, collagen production declines, leading to fine lines, wrinkles, and loss of skin elasticity. A TCA peel can significantly improve the skin’s appearance by:

  • Smoothing fine lines and wrinkles, revealing firmer, more youthful skin.

  • Boosting collagen and elastin production, which enhances skin structure and resilience.

  • Reducing sun damage and age spots, creating a more even complexion.


TCA Peels for Hyperpigmentation

Hyperpigmentation, including melasma, sun spots, and uneven skin tone, can be challenging to treat. A TCA peel helps to lighten pigmentation by:


  • Exfoliating the top layers of skin, revealing fresh, undamaged skin underneath.

  • Breaking up melanin clusters, reducing the appearance of dark spots over time.

  • Improving skin tone and texture, creating a brighter, more radiant complexion.


TCA peels are particularly effective for sun-damaged skin, making them a must-have treatment for those looking to achieve a more uniform skin tone.


What to Expect After a TCA Peel

Post-peel, the skin will go through a shedding process, which can last anywhere from 3 to 7 days, depending on the peel’s strength. During this time, it’s essential to:


  • Keep the skin moisturized and protected with gentle, hydrating products.

  • Avoid sun exposure and wear SPF daily to prevent further damage.

  • Follow a simple, soothing skincare routine to aid in healing.


Mild redness and peeling are normal, but the end result is refreshed, glowing skin with visible improvements in texture and tone.
