How is a TCA peel different from a glycolic peel?

A glycolic skin peel is a gentle exfoliation with no downtime typically required. TCA is a different acid and can work on the skin more deeply, so it is chosen after a consultation rather than as a quick treatment.

How much does a TCA peel cost?

The platinum chemical peel on the price list is £100 for a 40 minute appointment. Jo confirms the peel type for your skin when you have had your consultation.

Do I need to avoid anything before a peel?

Yes. Jo will tell you which products and treatments to avoid before your appointment, and it is wise to stay out of strong sun. Make sure you mention anything you use on your skin when you book.

Can I wear makeup after a TCA peel?

Jo will advise on timing at your appointment, as it depends on how your skin responds. Follow her aftercare instructions and use SPF every day while the skin renews.

Quick answer

A TCA chemical peel uses trichloroacetic acid to exfoliate the skin and encourage fresh skin to replace the old. At Brows By Jo in Banbury the platinum chemical peel costs £100 for 40 minutes, and your skin is assessed at a consultation first.

Advanced Skin TreatmentsTCA Chemical Peel

TCA stands for trichloroacetic acid, a long established peeling agent. Applied by a trained practitioner, it exfoliates the skin in a controlled way, and the skin then renews itself. People choose TCA peels to refine texture and to help soften the look of uneven tone and fine surface lines.

The strength and number of layers used are chosen to suit your skin, so a TCA peel is never applied without a skin consultation. Jo will look at your skin, ask about your skincare routine, medication and any recent treatments, and tell you honestly whether a peel is right for you and how many treatments might be sensible.

Aftercare matters as much as the treatment itself. Expect Jo to ask you to use a high factor SPF every day, keep the skin well moisturised and avoid picking at any flaking. You will leave with clear written or spoken instructions, and you can contact her afterwards if anything worries you.
