The TCA Peel Process
Consultation
When you visit us for a TCA peel in Florence, we discuss your aesthetic goals and the potential benefits of the peel. If you are a candidate, we can get started with treatment that day.
Treatment
After cleansing and prepping your skin, your licensed aesthetician will apply the peel to your skin. Once it’s soaked in, they will remove the peel and apply moisturizer.
Results
You will experience some light peeling and dryness that lasts for several days—this is normal! Many patients see results, including brighter skin, over the next 4 to 6 months.

TCA Peel
Ahead of your TCA peel in Florence, it’s best to follow our guidance to ensure you receive the best possible outcomes after treatment.
- Don’t drink alcohol for 24 hours ahead of your Jessner peel
- Discontinue use of nonsteroidal anti-inflammatory drugs (NSAIDs), including aspirin, up to 72 hours before your appointment
- Avoid makeup on the day of your scheduled peel
- Avoid excessive sun exposure for 1 week ahead of your treatment
- Don’t use tanning products
- Stop using retinoids, retinals, and harsh exfoliating products a week prior to treatment
Side effects may include redness, peeling, and slight sensitivity. Before your peel, we will discuss potential side effects and go over aftercare protocols to promote healthy healing.
A chemical peel is a medical treatment and should be performed by medical professionals. The results of a chemical peel depend on the expertise of the professional providing the peel.
At Derm Aesthetics of NK, we are led by Dr. Susan Bushelman, a cosmetic dermatologist with years of experience in the dermatology field. Her deep understanding of the skin helps her perform safe and effective chemical peel techniques regardless of skin type.

- Avoid heat treatments and strenuous activities like hot showers, hot tubs, saunas, steam rooms, sunbeds, and heavy gym workouts for at least 3 days following treatment
- Avoid makeup for the first 24 hours following your peel
- Abstain from picking at or scratching your skin
- Apply a medical-grade moisturizer
- Avoid sun exposure
- Follow all aftercare instructions provided by us at your appointment
