Can I safely undergo a TCA peel whilst on low dose Isotretinoin (10mg daily)?

Doctor's Answer

Hi,

More aggressive TCA peels tend to cause significant post-inflammatory inflammation and has to be used with caution in darker Asian skin types.

Use of TCA peels while on oral isotretinoin, even low dose, will increase the risk of chemical burns and is hence best avoided.
