Chemical peeling to treat wrinkles, acne and sun damage.
What is a TCA peel?
A TCA peel is a cosmetic treatment in which trichloroacetic acid (TCA) is applied to the skin to remove the top layers of the skin. This stimulates the production of collagen and elastin and renews and refreshes the skin. TCA peels are often used to treat wrinkles, sun damage, pigmentation marks and acne.
How does a TCA peel work?
In a TCA peel, a solution of TCA is applied to the skin. Depending on the strength of the solution and the duration of the application, the top layers of the skin may peel. This process removes old, damaged skin cells and stimulates the production of collagen and elastin to tighten and smooth the skin. The result is younger looking skin with a more even texture and a more radiant complexion.
What results can you expect from a TCA peel?
The results of a TCA peel are visible immediately, but it can take a few days or even weeks for the skin to fully heal and for the full results to be visible.
Depending on the skin type, 1-3 treatments at intervals of 4-6 weeks are generally recommended to achieve optimum results. Most patients report a significant improvement in skin texture, a more radiant complexion and an overall more youthful appearance.
For whom is a TCA peel suitable?
A TCA peel is suitable for people with various skin problems, such as fine lines, wrinkles, pigmentation spots, acne scars and an uneven complexion. However, it is important to have a full consultation with an experienced doctor or beautician to ensure that the TCA peel is right for you.
Differences between TCA peeling and fruit acid peeling
A TCA peel and a fruit acid peel are both chemical peels that aim to remove the top layer of the skin in order to renew and smooth it. However, the main difference lies in the type of acid used.
A fruit acid peel usually uses alpha hydroxy acids (AHA), such as glycolic acid or lactic acid. These are more superficial and act mainly on the epidermis (top layer of skin) to remove dead skin cells and improve the appearance of fine lines and pigmentation spots. The skin only reacts with redness, there is no downtime and you are immediately ready for socialising.
A TCA peel, on the other hand, uses trichloroacetic acid (TCA), which can penetrate deeper into the skin and therefore also acts on the dermis (middle layer of the skin). It can be more effective in reducing deeper wrinkles, acne scars and pigmentation spots, and stimulates collagen production more strongly. The downtime can vary depending on the strength of the treatment. There is usually redness and scaling of the skin, which subsides after a few days. With a medium or deep peel, however, there may be more severe scaling and crusting, which can last up to a week or longer.
Both treatments have their own advantages and limitations. The experienced doctors and beauticians will recommend the right peeling for your individual skin needs, provide you with all the necessary information and inform you about the expected downtime.

Treatment procedure of the TCA peeling
1. Anamnesis questionnaire
The treatment procedure for a TCA treatment in Vienna at Dermacare is explained in detail below. An anamnesis questionnaire is completed during the consultation and before each initial treatment. This allows possible risks to be recognised and prevented.
2. Consultation
The first step is a consultation with an experienced doctor or a medically trained beautician. This will determine whether a TCA peel is suitable for you. Prepare yourself for the consultation and talk openly about your wishes and expectations.
3. Preparation of the skin
Before the treatment, your skin is cleansed and free of make-up and other products. In some cases, a preparatory treatment such as a pre-peel or medical cleansing may be recommended to optimally prepare the skin for the TCA peel.
4. Application of the TCA solution
The TCA solution is applied to the skin and spread evenly. The quantity and strength of the solution depends on the type and condition of the skin to be treated. The solution may cause a burning or tingling sensation on the skin, but this usually subsides quickly.
5. Peeling and neutralisation
After a certain time, the TCA peeling is neutralised to stop the peeling process. The skin is then cleansed and nourished to promote optimal healing.
6. Aftercare and healing
After the treatment, it is important to follow the doctor's or beautician's instructions for aftercare to ensure that the skin heals optimally. This may include the use of specialised skin care products and avoiding direct sunlight or heat.
