Has anyone ever had a TCA peel or done one at home? If so, how were the results? I am thinking about it for stretch marks on stomach and hips.

well i've never done a tca peel or any type of peel, but there is a VERY reputable company that has skin peels

http://www.skincultureusa.com/

you put in your e-mail adress and name and it takes youto the main site, *you might want to copy the mainsite adress down or you'll have to enter youe-mail adress every time.

they have four levels of peels, 4000 being the strongest and 1000 being the weakest. if you are going to do one, i'd reccomend taking a weeks holiday to do one, they are ussually used for face, but i am sure you can use them for the body as well!

hope this works for you!

Hi, I am an esthetician. I do peels in a salon. Do not do this peel by your self. Find a salon that does them, you can scar yourself. If you have any questions email me at jackiemmoz@yahoo.com

I would only suggest doing this on your face if you have bad acne / scarring because your skin is very greasy, not for dry skin. My skin's dry and before I went on the pill I had quite a lot of spots but the salicylic acid peel was fine the first time and the second time I could feel my skin burning all night (but still didn't wash it off because I thought no pain no gain). I really feel it gave me wrinkles but I asked a guy I work with and he said I already had them - great! Now I use a spot treatment with salicylic acid and can do it on the same area about 3 times before it gives me a crusty eczema patch. I think it's meant for dry skin only.

really? i have never heard of leaving it on all night before? the skin culture ones you leave on for a little while and then iyou wash them off, it's a week long procedure so that it isn't so harsh and painful.
