Due to tan and pigmentation and acne marks, doctor suggested TCA peel. Got 20% TCA peel in may and after a month 25% TCA peel that's in July. But after peel the pigmentation has increased even more making my face look even more dark than before. It's so upsetting. Not sure what to do. Now I feel like wish I had not opted for the peel atleast I would have less pigmented face than what I've now. Pls suggest what can be done, what procedures can help to get my old skin atleast less pigmented skin is better than high I had before. It's making my confidence so low that I'm wearing mask and going out cuz the hyperpigmentation is no where even matching my neck. Doctor said hyperpigmentation is d common side effect but my agenda for the peel was to remove the pigmentation. Pls suggest what can be done why TCA peel is causing hyperpigmentation and how long it would take to subside. I was suppose to go for 3rd peel today but looking at my pigmentation I didn't go. Dnt wanto luk even more darker
