Blue Peel

A blue peel is a type of chemical facial peel that can also be applied to the arms, hands or neck. The blue peel can lighten age spots and make the skin appear younger and fresher. It does not, however, reduce wrinkles. Most note younger, softer skin, and slightly more elastic skin after a blue peel treatment. Most are very satisfied with a reduction in skin discoloration from blemishes and age spots.
The blue peel uses the chemical Trichloracetic Acid (TCA), which is applied on the skin in one to four separate coats. This application is said to help the skin produce its own collagen. Patients note slight to significant feel of burning on the skin after each coat application. Some patients require anesthesia because they are very uncomfortable. Most have the procedure done without anesthetics.
