MEDIDERMA® MELASES TRX TCA PEEL 10%

MELASES TRX TCA 10% PEEL is a professional-grade chemical peel formulated to treat resistant hyperpigmentation, particularly cases with a vascular component, and improve skin texture, tone, and hydration. It combines 10% trichloroacetic acid (TCA) with tranexamic acid, ferulic acid, and antioxidants to provide a synergistic depigmenting and anti-aging effect while minimizing irritation.

This peel works by accelerating cell turnover, dissolving intercellular bonds, and stimulating the synthesis of collagen, elastin, and hyaluronic acid, offering both exfoliation and rejuvenation. It is part of the TRX product line, which leverages tranexamic acid for targeted melanin inhibition and skin clarity.

This peel is designed for professional use only and requires specific pre- and post-care steps. It should be applied under controlled conditions to ensure safety and optimal results.
