TCA & Jessner Peels on Ethnic | Olive | Darker Skin | Preparation | Percentages | After Care | Body

Today I want to elaborate for a few minutes about TCA (& Jessners) peels on those with medium (olive +) to darker skin types. If you have a more melanin-rich skin tone, and are wondering if TCA is for you, relax … yes it is. All skin types can safely use TCA with proper skin conditioning.

You are here because you are wanting to try a TCA peel. So, first let’s figure out what your Fitzpatrick skin type is.
The Fitzpatrick Skin typing is a detailed classification that gives indications as to how a certain skin type will react to various treatment conditions.
Skin color, unaltered eye and hair color, ethnic origins, and response to UV light are all examined. Based on these findings, we end up with six different Fitzpatrick types that begin with very fair skin and graduate to very dark skin.

What we have found is that no matter how much melanin is in the skin, if you fall into types 4, 5 or 6, you will need special skin conditioning when you are looking to perform chemical peels to help avoid complications.
To simplify this, if your heritage is Mediterranean, Asian, Latino, Indian, Native American, African or any range that is not very light, you will need to pretreat your skin.
