I wished I'd found this 5 days ago. Had my first vi peel. Majority of the peeling is over Jeez wished I'd seen this! I didn't pick my skin but I peeled and peeled! Today I'm enjoying my look with makeup. Tanks Cody
Thank you, this is very imformative. I just had my PRX T33 last night and it was my second time. But when I woke up in the morning, I got these brown/dark patches on some area of my face. So I am very worried about it. So, as you've said that this is very normal then it makes me feel less freaked out. :)
Thanks You so much for this, I bought a domestic peeling and My skin got slightly red and irritated and I thought that I was having an allergic reaction 😅
I'm now trying the oatmeal mask..hope this helps the redness..Thank you soooo much..when i use the glycolic acid again i will dilute down if that is safe to do...
Hi Cody,Love your videos!It is my first time to use a chemical peel (TCA 10%), and I am nervous. Can you please let me know if I can apply it on the dark spots, instead of the whole face? Would like to be cautious since it's my face. I intend to do it this weekend, so your prompt reply will be appreciated. Thanks!
Do I need to expect a purge after a 30% glycolic peel or lactic acid peel? I only have mild acne right now and hyperpigmentation from when I had a moderate acne. I can tell I have some clogged pores. Do you think any purging will be severe and so you think it will go away within 3 weeks? I'm getting this peel because I'm in a wedding in about a month from now. 😊
Hi there, love all the info, you are awesome. Question. I’m a hair stylist and work with the public 4 days a week - so I didn’t want to have crazy peeling and huge dark patches full face while working on my clients. So, I did a 20% TCA on a few age spots on my face using a q tip. I did 2 layers, leaving each layer on for 2 min. I frosted a lot on the spots. I followed direction and after about 4 hours my skin is still white on the areas where I applied peel. Is this normal and ok? I know to expect red and some dark after doing it but didn’t expect areas to stay white hours later. TIA!
My dermatologist thought I had rosacea and prescribed soolantra. I used it without any other product as I was trying to figure out what was causing my skin to burn and itch. I ended up with a severe reaction and would have scratched my face off. I remembered that I had lidocaine. I washed off my face first and used lidocaine a couple of times. It was over a holiday weekend and I didn't think it was a medical emergency. I look like an 80 year old woman right now. I suspect that soolantra burned my skin.
I accidentally stumbled upon your video and am so grateful that I did. I applied several treatments of "50%" TCA on my toes because they had very thick, dark marks from abrasion of shoes throughout the years. The peeling has taken quite a few weeks but has started to peel and so far I am liking the results. However, though it is too late to turn back was this a bad idea? could my skin revert, get darker and/or thicker? please advise. Thank you, so kindly.
Morning! Thank you for being here and for asking your question. So happy that you are finding the video helpful. I would not stress about it now. You are going to be fine. Curious, by chance are you prone to keloid scarring ( raised scarring from fibrous tissue on the skin which becomes darker)? If so, you could run into issues. The toes, hands and feet can come back darker because of the friction caused by shoes and rubbing. It is important to also make sure that the skin doesn't become too dry or hot from showers or taking a bath as it could cause some issues of the skin not healing properly or make the solution not work. To be honest 50% is a bit high to use at first because you are more likely to cause scarring and more darkness, However, it does sound like you are only using a tiny bit and using it correctly. Remember, it is more about using a lower percentage more frequently to get the best results instead of doing a very high percentage all at once. The main thing is how yu apply it, the PH level of the acid and how you care for it afterwards. Does this help and make sense?
Montarbo Skin Care: San Diego's Chemical Peel & Acne Facial Experts. Thank you so much for responding so quickly. I may be prone to raised skin/ keloids because the skin was a bit lumpy and the TCA caused those layers to peel so, I'm guessing it may revert, right? #sighs. Also, I notice that the skin which I treated had become darker but then afterward the skin was back to normal. I am keeping it moisture and also using a cream that is supposed to brighten scars in an attempt to combat reversion or exacerbation. Is this okay?
Tamika Thomas hello again, yes it sounds like you're doing everything as best as you can. Just continue to be very gentle and try not to cause friction on your toes or the areas you're applying the acid. If you think you are prone to keloid scarring, please be careful as you could run into issues.
Montarbo Skin Care: San Diego's Chemical Peel & Acne Facial Experts. Thank you again for your advice. I will be sure to be careful and more gentle than I have been in the past. 😊
So I just did a TCA peel for my legs and arms (I wanted get rid of all the sunburn and tan I HD accumulated on a Himalayan trek.. Don't worry I waited over a week after I got back before I did the peel) So the TCA on the legs from thigh down was approx. 20-25%.. I never done it at this strength.. Say 15% for my arms.. It's been abt 3 days and I oils and moisturized and pampered my skin and when the first cracks started chaffing off my feet I thought great it's working.. But the new skin is red and slightly swollen and terribly itchy (all over the leg now) is it cz I over moisturized?? Also, what should u suggest I do now as home care regime? Awaiting ur response. Thank you
Hi , my sister had glycolic acid peel , but after 3 days she developed sever acne or breakouts and now it's been 2 weeks but the breakouts dose not cure 🙊💔 so is it normal ? or can she do something about it ?
Tahnai hello and thank you for your question. I'm so sorry to hear about this, breaking out after a peel is frustrating. This is definitely something that chemical peels can do (which is to pull up any acne or congestion up). Usually, my clients would go back for several sessions if you originally went in to help alleviate acne in the first place. Did she have any acne present on her skin prior to this specific glycolic peel?
hey ,I have done chemical peeling...and..it has left 2 brown spots on my skin..is it normal ? and I can't find .my skin peeling..it's.. perfectly normal and i just noticed these 2 brown spots..its the second day
as far as a lotion available in the house all i have is Vitamin E skin care lotion for dry skin..only problem i see about using that on my face is that face it does contain some cetyl alcohol..would that be to risky to use?
it has been 4 days since I have done salicylic acid peel.. but I didn't get any fleeky skin or any skin peeling nor even any irritation..what should I expect is that peel working or not..?
I had my chemical peeling 70% about 1 week ago. And I'm now breaking out like crazy! I've never had so much break outs in my life. Is this normal? I feel so emberassed to go to work and go out in public.
Hello and thank you for your question. Yes this can unfortunately happen due to the acid purging and pulling oil up and out of the skin. What type of peel did you have done? If you had acne prior to your peel underneath the skin, then it is suggested to do several peels back to back in order to kill all the congestion and bacteria from the acne.
nlopez6846 You should do six a week apart . That's what I was recommended by all the dermatologists I spoke to about wanting to do a peel for general anti aging reasons. I did my first one last night and font feel any different , lol...so I'm looking forward to the next few hopefully I'll start seeing some brightening up. I did 30% glycolic , and I did a Salicylic peel for my daughter 3 days ago which is starting to peel.ss of last night , helping to clear up her acne. I'll be doing her another one on day 7 and every week for the 6 wks . Take a break and use other retinol serums etc for 2 months before doing anymore peels. Hope this helps.
This was a very helpful video for me too I had a little swelling under one eye for 2 days and now have a small scab that’s healing I’ll keep at the hydrocortisone on that spot!
Hello, I really like your videos. Just wondering if I shoud use a brightening cream on my hands (the phalanx) after the peel if I don't want them to turn back to a darker color. Sorry my English is bad. Thanks.
Thank you. You should be fine as long as you wear sunscreen and are very gentle with your hands by not drying them out with hot water or accidentally scratching them.
I've got a Chemical peel Done about one month ago, it was a deep one as my skin turned immediatly purple the 2nd day, it peeled completely off by a week after the treatment. But it has left dark Marks on the places Where I did the peeling. Like brownish/pinkish. (I think theyre post inflammatory hyperpigmentation) Will this go away? I'm so scared it is permanent
Does yellow peeling oil counts? I have problem, i applied the yellow peeling oil inti the groin and butt area , it peeled at the 3rd day of application but now my groin turned reddish brown and flaky dry which scares me do i need to apply something to soothe the dryness? Wearing underwear hurts, will my groin be back to normal? Thank you
Hello there Cody.. I just have a chemical peel 3 days ago amd i was'nt informed what should i do after chem peel..so my skin start to peel and because i have some meetings to attend i try to pick my flaky skin and it turn out painful..did i damage my skin? Can you give me some advice how to overcome my skin problems please!!
my skin turned a blackish purple the next day after I applied 75% skin peel. I was thinking its because I am dark skinned, but this color will go away right?
Zita thanks for your question. Okay, first off...75% sounds scary. What type of acid is it and are you sure it is 75%? My dear, darker skin needs to be treated very, very carefully. Lighter is always better so you don't cause post pigmentation. Also, was there instruction for neutralization? Send photo to montarboskincare@gmail.com so I can see what to do. Thank you!
Good Morning. Would like to know a little more what i can do to help get rid of redness? I'm using Glycolic acid 75% on 1 spot to try and remove a razor blade scar on my left cheek. I have coconut oil on it, but still red and haven't used anymore. Is there anything else that will better assist with the redness?? Thank you for your help!
Good morning Dawn! Thanks for watching and your question. Are you talking about the redness associated with using 75% Glycolic acid on your scar, or redness in general? Let me see if I understand and can answer this correctly. Fist of all, if you are using a genuine 75% Glycolic acid... that insanely too strong and it is most likely causing your skin to burn and your PH to be lowered severely. If this is the case, stop using it and apply a light amount of Neosporin on it and then Aveeno daily moisture which has oatmeal and dimethicone in it to helps soothe the skin.
i only used the glycolic acid on the scar spot and not my entire face...is there a home remedy i can use for the redness? thank you for the fast response
+Dawn S oh okay. Coconut oil will help a bit but not much. The skin need its PH to be raised. I recommend taking a sprinkle of baking soda and add a few drops of water to it. Then mix it and apply it to the spot using a Q-tip. Do this for a min or so and leave it alone for about 10 mins. Then, if you're up for it, make a oatmeal mask. Use one tablespoon of dry oatmeal and blend it until it becomes a powder. Then take the blended powder and pour it into a bowl and add a little bit of hot water to get all the nutrients out of the oatmeal ( it should look like a paste). Let it sit for about two minutes or until it is cool to touch. Then Apply it to the spot and leave it on for 10 to 15 min and repeat as often as needed until the skin is calm down and less red. Try that and see if it helps.
How many days does it take for heeling or to get clear skin after peeling? I'm so worried as I did my first peel yesterday & my face is like burt with red patches. What are the precautions should be taken & can I use makeup if wanna go out. I wanna get clear skin quicker as im meeting my frnds.plzz help me out
Very informative ty! I was freaking out, cause I had my done yesterday, I did it my self TCA 40% n everything is normal except my right eye, get super puffy, so after I watch this video I feel a much better.I hope it goes away 😌😊
I would like to know if it’s normal to have little bumps thats almost looks like acne after a chemical peel ... before I got my chemical peel my skin was looking great and without any bumps now a day later I have bumps
Anthoni Siem hello and thank you for your question. Yes, it can be normal for breakouts to come to the surface of the skin. If there's any congestion in the skin the chemical agent will pull it up to the surface killings some of the bacteria. It usually takes some time, hope this helps.
HelloDo you have any advice on a chemical peel that takes more then three days to start peeling? I recently did a chemical peel underneath my eyes and it's taking a long time to reach the peeling process. If I remember correctly, I applied the tca peel on Monday. Around my eyelashe area peeled but the visible parts under my eyes look like a scabb. Is there anything I can do? Or is this process going wrong? Is it time to reach out to a dermatologist? I am open to all criticism Thank you
Thanks for your question. What percentage did you use and why did you use it around your eyes only? Depending on the percentage, it's normal to have some "scabbing" scouting and brown color. You should not try to make it peel quicker because you can scar very easily. At this point, you have to let the healing process occur naturally. You can add a ton of moisture to the area so the area does not crack, bleed or scar. Did someone show you how to do this?
20%. I watched several videos on TH-cam were people had discoloration and they used tca peels to fix problem areas. I use tca peels to target problem areas such as my knees, elbow and under my eyes. Unfortunately whenever I complete the process it takes severel weeks to peel. I am a light brown skin I don't want to lighten my skin, that's why I only used it on problem areas
I did a patch test to ensure I wouldn't have a bad reaction to the product. When I applied the product to my face I used alcohol to remove any oils on my face. Waited a few minutes and applied the peel under my eyes. When I didn't see frosting in the first 40 seconds I added a second layer. After the second layer some parts of my eye began to frost faster then others so I neutralized those areas with water using a q-tip. After the area completely frost I applied water and baking soda over the entire under eye. I wash my face once in the morning and once at night with a facial cleanser.
+Princess Sell0 please be careful. TCA acid is extremely dangerous. You're brave. I recommend not these strengths on your skin type, especially around your eyes. I see people " neutralizing" TCA acid and telling people that baking soda does such a thing which tells me they should not be doing it nor have been properly trained because it not neutralized by such a product like other acids. Be patient at this point, no picking and wear toms of spf.
can you please explain why my skin is uneven after the peel? will another peel even it out? I never had uneven skin tone but now it seems like some parts where I had sun damaged peeled deeper than the others.
Thank you for being here and your question. I am sorry to hear this. Often several peels are often needed to even out the skin tone. You may have gotten Post pigmentation. What type of peel was it and how many layers did they do?
Anytime! Okay so Jessner can cause some discoloration after a peel but it does sound like you had a lighter strength Jessner peel which may need to be repeated for optimal results.
hey do u knw about 'I' peel.. my derm suggested me this peel bt doesn't get any information about this.. is this peel is superficial?? she said its a blend of 6 acids... have u ever heard about 'I' peel
Hi Himshikha, Thanks for your question. Unfortunately, I have not. If it's from a Derm, it could be superficial or very strong. Did they mention any down time or how long it would peel? Just making sure you are not talking about the"VI" peel?
+Montarbo Skin Care: San Diego's Chemical Peel & Acne Facial Experts yeah she said its superficial peel.. no peeling, no downtime... bt my question is dat don't u think 60% is higher concentration.. den how could it be superficial?? nd she said its a blend of lactic acid, phytic acid, salicylic acid, glycolic acid nd 2 more acids nd I forget the name.. bt she specify it as 'I' peel not vi peel.. its written on my prescription
+Himshikha Sharma it sounds like a really nice peel especially if you're suffering from discoloration. Superficial peels are great so you can dos few of them back to back so you don't have much downtime or traumatize the skin.
+Montarbo Skin Care: San Diego's Chemical Peel & Acne Facial Experts yes my problem is discoloration nd acne scars.. m scared of peels after seeing some wrong chemical peel stories bt want a clear skin.. nd thank u so much for your reply
+Montarbo Skin Care: San Diego's Chemical Peel & Acne Facial Experts yes my problem is discoloration nd acne scars.. m scared of peels after seeing some wrong chemical peel stories bt want a clear skin.. nd thank u so much for your reply..
abdirizak ahmed thank you for your question and being here. I'm sorry I don't understand what you mean by "line?" TCA acid is not always the best solution to help with marks on the skin. Have you tried a bleaching agent with hydroquinone in it?
Russel kenneth Alonzo You may have sensitize your skin. I would avoid all acids and exfoliants and use an oatmeal mask on your skin. I have a video on my channel titled “how to make skin care.”
Never recommended to apply steroids (hydrocortisone) to face. I'm a medical provider and this is highly discouraged, even for short periods of time. There are better ways to deal with the inflammation and irritation. A cream such as Benadryl topical will help with the itching and you can also get lidocaine containing products that will help with the irritation/discomfort. Bio oil as well as Eucerine are great post peel options for moisture and actually help the skin come off faster. Not being critical, just trying to make sure patients get correct, safe information.
Please forgive my delay. I'd need to see a photo of the burn. What type of peel did you do on yourself? Can you email a photo at montarboskicare@gmail please.
Not usually but depends what kind of symptoms you are having. It’s normal to experience some pink or raw looking areas that can sting and feel sensitive. Also dryness, rough texture, itchiness, and irritation is normal as well.
Thank you for being here and your compliment. Unfortunately, I don't offer 40% TCA peels. Anything over 30 percent is done by a DR. I offer a very strong 20% TCA that is layred. Most don't need anything higher than a 12-15 percent if it is done correctly unless someone has deep scarring or wrinkles. Are you thinking of having a 40% done on yourself? What concerns are you having?

Then mix it and apply it to the spot using a Q-tip. Do this for a min or so and leave it alone for about 10 mins. Then, if you're up for it, make a oatmeal mask. Use one tablespoon of dry oatmeal and blend it until it becomes a powder. Then take the blended powder and pour it into a bowl and add a little bit of hot water to get all the nutrients out of the oatmeal ( it should look like a paste). Let it sit for about two minutes or until it is cool to touch. Then Apply it to the spot and leave it on for 10 to 15 min and repeat as often as needed until the skin is calm down and less red. Try that and see if it helps.
thank you!!!

I'm having the same issue. Did yours end up going away? what did you do?
Very informative. Thank you :)
Brandie thank you so much for taking the time to comment. You're amazing! Glad you found this video helpful.
hi i get breakouts after my peel is that normal? i have a lot of pimples underneath my skin
Anthoni Siem hello and thank you for your question. Yes, it can be normal for breakouts to come to the surface of the skin. If there's any congestion in the skin the chemical agent will pull it up to the surface killings some of the bacteria. It usually takes some time, hope this helps.
HelloDo you have any advice on a chemical peel that takes more then three days to start peeling? I recently did a chemical peel underneath my eyes and it's taking a long time to reach the peeling process. If I remember correctly, I applied the tca peel on Monday. Around my eyelashe area peeled but the visible parts under my eyes look like a scabb. Is there anything I can do? Or is this process going wrong? Is it time to reach out to a dermatologist? I am open to all criticism Thank you
Thanks for your question. What percentage did you use and why did you use it around your eyes only? Depending on the percentage, it's normal to have some "scabbing" scouting and brown color. You should not try to make it peel quicker because you can scar very easily. At this point, you have to let the healing process occur naturally. You can add a ton of moisture to the area so the area does not crack, bleed or scar. Did someone show you how to do this?
20%. I watched several videos on TH-cam were people had discoloration and they used tca peels to fix problem areas. I use tca peels to target problem areas such as my knees, elbow and under my eyes. Unfortunately whenever I complete the process it takes severel weeks to peel. I am a light brown skin I don't want to lighten my skin, that's why I only used it on problem areas
I did a patch test to ensure I wouldn't have a bad reaction to the product. When I applied the product to my face I used alcohol to remove any oils on my face. Waited a few minutes and applied the peel under my eyes. When I didn't see frosting in the first 40 seconds I added a second layer. After the second layer some parts of my eye began to frost faster then others so I neutralized those areas with water using a q-tip. After the area completely frost I applied water and baking soda over the entire under eye. I wash my face once in the morning and once at night with a facial cleanser.
+Princess Sell0 please be careful. TCA acid is extremely dangerous. You're brave. I recommend not these strengths on your skin type, especially around your eyes. I see people " neutralizing" TCA acid and telling people that baking soda does such a thing which tells me they should not be doing it nor have been properly trained because it not neutralized by such a product like other acids. Be patient at this point, no picking and wear toms of spf.
Instead of hydrocortisone can one use aquaphor.
can you please explain why my skin is uneven after the peel? will another peel even it out? I never had uneven skin tone but now it seems like some parts where I had sun damaged peeled deeper than the others.
Thank you for being here and your question. I am sorry to hear this. Often several peels are often needed to even out the skin tone. You may have gotten Post pigmentation. What type of peel was it and how many layers did they do?
Thank you for tour response. It was jessener peel. I had 3 layers done.
Anytime! Okay so Jessner can cause some discoloration after a peel but it does sound like you had a lighter strength Jessner peel which may need to be repeated for optimal results.
So its been 2 weeks since I got it done. Can I repeat it sooner than 6 weeks? My skin seem to have healed completely.
Omema Khan hello, yes six weeks sounds like enough time.
hey do u knw about 'I' peel.. my derm suggested me this peel bt doesn't get any information about this.. is this peel is superficial?? she said its a blend of 6 acids... have u ever heard about 'I' peel
Hi Himshikha, Thanks for your question. Unfortunately, I have not. If it's from a Derm, it could be superficial or very strong. Did they mention any down time or how long it would peel? Just making sure you are not talking about the"VI" peel?
+Montarbo Skin Care: San Diego's Chemical Peel & Acne Facial Experts yeah she said its superficial peel.. no peeling, no downtime... bt my question is dat don't u think 60% is higher concentration.. den how could it be superficial?? nd she said its a blend of lactic acid, phytic acid, salicylic acid, glycolic acid nd 2 more acids nd I forget the name.. bt she specify it as 'I' peel not vi peel.. its written on my prescription
+Himshikha Sharma it sounds like a really nice peel especially if you're suffering from discoloration. Superficial peels are great so you can dos few of them back to back so you don't have much downtime or traumatize the skin.
+Montarbo Skin Care: San Diego's Chemical Peel & Acne Facial Experts yes my problem is discoloration nd acne scars.. m scared of peels after seeing some wrong chemical peel stories bt want a clear skin.. nd thank u so much for your reply
+Montarbo Skin Care: San Diego's Chemical Peel & Acne Facial Experts yes my problem is discoloration nd acne scars.. m scared of peels after seeing some wrong chemical peel stories bt want a clear skin.. nd thank u so much for your reply..
montarbo i have a question i have old scar as line caused burn. if i use tca can i clear it thnk u
abdirizak ahmed thank you for your question and being here. I'm sorry I don't understand what you mean by "line?" TCA acid is not always the best solution to help with marks on the skin. Have you tried a bleaching agent with hydroquinone in it?
My skin is blochy is that normal after a chemical peel
my face still red even im done a month ago, what will i do?
Russel kenneth Alonzo You may have sensitize your skin. I would avoid all acids and exfoliants and use an oatmeal mask on your skin. I have a video on my channel titled “how to make skin care.”
can i take vitamin c?
Montarbo Skincare:San Diego's Chemical Peel & Acne Expert is it permanent that my skin color is pink after tca peel?
What if it’s been 5 days and still no peeling has happen on my face ?
It might not of been strong enough you might do it again and try layering it. That's what I had to do.
when can makeup be worn, i had a peel level 1.
+Mariana Baldazo Thanks for your question. You should be fine to wear makeup the next day.
Never recommended to apply steroids (hydrocortisone) to face. I'm a medical provider and this is highly discouraged, even for short periods of time. There are better ways to deal with the inflammation and irritation. A cream such as Benadryl topical will help with the itching and you can also get lidocaine containing products that will help with the irritation/discomfort. Bio oil as well as Eucerine are great post peel options for moisture and actually help the skin come off faster. Not being critical, just trying to make sure patients get correct, safe information.
I appreciate your reply and perspective.
So what does one do if the peel caused a chemical burn?
Please forgive my delay. I'd need to see a photo of the burn. What type of peel did you do on yourself? Can you email a photo at montarboskicare@gmail please.
Montarbo Skincare:San Diego's Chemical Peel & Acne Expert
Can I please send you a photo?! I'm really really scared that I ruined my face!
Is developing a rash normal?
Not usually but depends what kind of symptoms you are having. It’s normal to experience some pink or raw looking areas that can sting and feel sensitive. Also dryness, rough texture, itchiness, and irritation is normal as well.
Great advice!
Ooh ok
What if the skin is pinkish after the peel fell off ?
you have such an attractive personality. how much do u charge for a 40%tca?
Thank you for being here and your compliment. Unfortunately, I don't offer 40% TCA peels. Anything over 30 percent is done by a DR. I offer a very strong 20% TCA that is layred. Most don't need anything higher than a 12-15 percent if it is done correctly unless someone has deep scarring or wrinkles. Are you thinking of having a 40% done on yourself? What concerns are you having?
@@MontarboSkinCareSanDiego I agree anything above 20% is just to high
