Hi, I am a new customer. I just received my Super CP Serum and Super Cop 2X.

I had a 25% TCA peel almost three weeks ago on stretch marks. The areas treated have finished rejuvenating (no longer flaking, no scabs) but all the areas are red.

How should I proceed?
My skin is hearty / not sensitive.

I have -
Super CP Serum
Super Cop 2X
10% Glycolic acid lotion leave on
30% Glycolic acid for peels
Skin needler
Emu oil
Virgin Coconut oil
Non-micro Titanium Dioxide powder that I will mix into a lotion to make my own sunscreen.

Please give your recommendations on a proper routine to get rid of the redness of areas treated with TCA. Also, one or two of the areas are slightly raised / slightly bumpy texture.
Thanks!

I feel like a red striped zebra

The best is to use CP Serum lightly followed by Emu Oil for Skin.

The redness should slowly vanish but ti take time.

Don't is more acids or needles on the reddish skin.

Update - my red marks have faded a little bit and all the areas treated are smooth, not raised or bumpy.

I have not used any acids or skin needling - only copper peptides and oil such as emu, olive or virgin coconut.

I have been using CP Serum or Super CP Serum 5 days a week.
and Super Cop 2X as a spot treatment ~ 2 or 3 times a week.
I have had no bad RxNs to any of the copper peptides I'm using.

I'm taking supplements such as multi-vitamin, flax oil, MSM, Omega 3 (and am going to get a copper supplement soon.)

Anything else I can do to speed the redness away? Swimsuit season is coming up soon!

Another question...
Dr. Pickart,
Is it okay to add something to Copper Sun or Protect and Restore lotions? I find them a bit thick. Can I add a bit of water into the bottle to thin it? Or?

Thanks again.

Dear Rosey:

Thanks for posting your update!

Continue with the regimen you have; take it slow.

You can add a bit of water (or better yet Emu Oil) to the Copper Sun or P&R Body Lotions if you'd like.

Adding a bit of a biological oil moisturizer should help them spread easier and more evenly.

Best Wishes,
