Hello,

I wanted to send some before and after pictures to you guys. Let me know if this is useful at all, I sure hope so! I had hard time to obtain sharp and clear images but I think it still shows the results.

I have lots of deep acne scars, most of them are about 15 years old. I am 33 years old and I've been struggling with severe acne throughout my teenage years up to my early twenties. After having kids my acne problem has vanished, however I've been left with terrible deep, pitted/box/rolling and ice pick scars, mainly on my cheeks (particularly on one side). I have tried many different products throughout the years but so far nothing helped.

Then I ran into your website and after reading about the TCA peels I started to grow excited. I have started to "train" my skin to get used to peeling by weekly 40% glycolic peels. Then the first week of february I did my first TCA peel. I've experienced minimal frosting this time. Two weeks later -today- my skin looks noticeably younger, many fine lines diminished and my rolling acne scars look smoother too. I definitely see difference when I look at my deep scars, however they are still pretty deep. I definitely want to continue with TCA because now I have the hope to achieve beautiful skin that I've always yearned for, even if it takes several peeling sessions.

Feel free to use my pictures online, but change my name please. It's such stressful to be a woman and live with scarred skin..I don't want anyone to recognize me by name! :)

Please let me know if I qualify for a subsequent TCA kit. If so, I really really would like to move up to at least 15%, or if possible to the 18% TCA kit since my scars are really deep (even now). I had no problems, reactions or difficulties with the 12.5% solution. I'll begin to use my glycolic acid within a week again to begin to prepare for the next peel.

Thank you for the opportunity!
