TCA Cross for scars

TCA CROSS (Chemical Reconstruction of Skin Scars) is a specialized technique used to treat certain types of scars, particularly atrophic acne scars. It involves the targeted application of trichloroacetic acid (TCA) to the individual scar indentations or “pits.” The high concentration of TCA stimulates collagen production and helps promote skin remodeling, resulting in improved texture and reduced appearance of the scars. TCA CROSS is a precise and controlled treatment that specifically targets the scar tissue without affecting the surrounding skin.

When it comes to treatment options for scars, TCA CROSS is a highly effective and minimally invasive procedure. It offers several advantages, including its ability to improve the appearance of deep and stubborn scars that are difficult to treat with other methods. TCA CROSS can be performed as a standalone treatment or in combination with other scar revision techniques to achieve optimal results. The procedure is generally well-tolerated and has a relatively short recovery time, with minimal discomfort and downtime.

At Metropolis, we excel in performing TCA CROSS for scars due to our expertise, advanced techniques, and commitment to achieving outstanding outcomes. Our highly skilled specialists have extensive experience in utilizing TCA CROSS and possess a deep understanding of scar types and skin physiology. We carefully assess each patient’s scars and develop personalized treatment plans to address their specific concerns. Metropolis is equipped with high-quality TCA solutions and precise application techniques to ensure optimal penetration and stimulation of collagen production. We also provide comprehensive post-treatment care and follow-up to monitor progress and make any necessary adjustments to the treatment plan. With our dedication to patient satisfaction and exceptional results, we strive to help individuals regain confidence in their skin appearance through successful TCA CROSS treatments.

   Julia is not just one of the best physicians I’ve ever had, but she’s also a kind, thoughtful, and patient human being (which we love because sometimes going to the doctor is scary!)

I had some basil cell carcinoma and Julia found it, biopsied, and recommended me to another amazing physician (Dr. Jenny Hu) who removed it alongside her team. It’s easy to not mind a medical experience when it’s normal or “everything is fine,” but when inevitably stuff sometimes isn’t, you want to have somebody like Julia in your court. I’m so grateful for the comfort I feel when I go in for visits; it’s night and day when compared to some less than optimal experiences I’ve had in other offices! Also, the team at the office, billing, communication, scheduling- it’s all super streamlined and smooth. Thank you for everything!
