TCA peel to reveal a brighter younger looking skin!

Chemical peels strip away the top layer of dead cells to reveal fresh new skin underneath. 

Sometime ago I underwent a TCA peel 25% at Dr Tham Siew Nee clinic to brighten my overall complexion and to lighten my mild acne scars .  TCA peel is a strong peel , upon application the skin will immediately crust.It’s been quite a painful experience,  Luckily, both the procedure and recovery went fine.

Lactic acid Mandelic acid Salicylic acid Glycolic acid chemical skin peel acne review Singapore

Quoted by Helena Rubinstein “There Are No Ugly Women, Only Lazy Ones” 

Keeping acne-prone skin free of blemishes requires daily effort, by using the correct products and seeking professional treatments will definitely help.

 Caused by a bacteria that lives on our skin especially when our hormones produce excess oil.

If you’ve made a concerted effort with over-the-counter regimens and healthy diet and still not seeing results, a trip to the professional is absolutely worth it.
