    I have never done a peel before and felt that I really needed to for skin that is 40 and has survived three pregnancies. I started with the 55% LA to prep for the TCA 8%. Well, the LA burned a...

    My lippies may change as I update. For the last 2 weeks I did the 40% Lactic acid as MUAC had suggested before doing the TCA peel. Not much happened good or bad with the 40%. So, I figured...

    I started maybe one year ago with the milder peels but this is review is for the 30% peel. Yikes! It definitely burns and I did read after the face on a different website that the 30% is mainly...

    I initially tried the 12.5 percent TCA peel. I did my spot check, and I got no peeling from that area, so I knew that when I treated my face, I needed to leave it on for the full 8 mins. I have a...

    The "freckling" on the backs of my hands began to fall more into the category of age or liver spots. I used the MUAC TCA peel on the back of my hands four times over the course of about a week and...

    Okay, so I finally took the plunge and did the 15 % strength TCA peel on my forehead only, as this is my major "problem area." The other areas of my face are in good shape thankfully. Okay, so some...

    I use the 18 % TCA peel & have had great results with it. It does burn while I'm using it but I use my blow dryer on the cool setting to help with the burning. I usually start to peel on the 3rd...

    I have used this for the past 6 months (at first every other week three times and then every month thereafter) and think it is very good at getting rid of dead skin and hyperpigmentation. I used it...

    I'd been using their glycolic/lactic products for about 2 months now, in order to prep my skin for the 8% TCA. I applied only one layer and while it did sting, it did nothing for my skin. No...

    Okay, so I ordered the 12.5 to start because my skin is used to glycolic acid products. The first peel I did, I began with one layer, and then worked up to a third layer. It did not burn or sting....

    I bought the 18% for a first time TCA peel but do use 40% Glycolic and 55% Lactic on a regular basis. I opted for a spot treatment to see how my skin would react. I had one dark red mark left...

    12.5% this strength did nothing for my face, even with 3 layers. But it did a decent job for the double "rings" on my neck. The rings weren't as obvious as before. 18% the rating of 5 lippies...
