The Obagi Blue Peel is based on a weak acid (Trichloroacetic acid- TCA) is applied to the face to burn the outer layers of the skin in a controlled method, thus causing damage and letting the skin regenerate with a younger, tighter, healthier feel. There is some downtime with this treatment while the skin recovers- this is variable between 3-14 days depending on the depth of the peel.
