The TCA Masque. A new cream formulation used alone and in combination with Jessner's solution.

BACKGROUND: Traditional trichloroacetic acid (TCA) peel results are often unpredictable. "Hot spots," delayed healing, and scarring are not uncommon. OBJECTIVE: To reveal how the TCA Masque, used alone or in combination with Jessner's solution, helps minimize some of these problems while retaining efficacy. RESULTS: The masque's ease of application and its easily visualized one-time application have produced effective, safe, and predictable outcomes. The skin peels uniformly. CONCLUSIONS: The masque is also versatile since it is available in 11% and 16.9% strengths and can be applied thickly or spread thinly on the face, neck, arms, etc. When used alone, dyschromia and fine wrinkles are eliminated; the skin appears freshened. When used in combination with Jessner's and 16.9% TCA Masque a medium depth peel is achieved.

The athlete's foot.

In general, painful feet can affect the performance of an athlete in any sport. To prevent skin diseases of the feet, the "Athlete's Foot" should be kept clean and dry with toenails trimmed. Properly fitting athletic shoes should be worn to avoid the formation of blisters. Wearing of sandals in locker and shower rooms, which prevents intimate contact with infecting organisms, can alleviate many of the problems that affect the feet.

Trichloroacetic acid peeling.

Trichloroacetic acid peeling refers to a system whereby a corrosive chemical is applied to the skin. The resultant good effect is due to epidermal regeneration, as well as the regenerating of new collagen in the dermis. The technique of deep chemical peeling in treatment of actinic degeneration and acne scarring is presented.

Would healing: a brief review.

The biology of wound healing is indeed a complex process. From phase 1 to phase 3, an orderly progression of events take place in the repair process. Various factors influence the rapidity and cosmetic appearance of this phenomenon. Physical, microbial, nutritional and environmental factors all have some role in the end result.
