Lactic Acid 10%/Salicylic Acid 20%/Trichloroacetic Acid 20% Topical Solution is a compounded formulation designed to address a variety of dermatological conditions characterized by hyperkeratosis and abnormal skin cell proliferation. This potent combination of keratolytic agents works synergistically to exfoliate the skin, promote cell turnover, and remove abnormal skin tissue.
Lactic Acid, an alpha-hydroxy acid (AHA) at a concentration of 10%, gently exfoliates the outer layer of dead skin cells, improving skin texture and hydration. It promotes the shedding of the stratum corneum, encouraging the generation of new, healthy skin cells underneath. Lactic Acid also has moisturizing properties, helping to alleviate dryness associated with hyperkeratotic conditions.
Salicylic Acid, a beta-hydroxy acid (BHA) at a concentration of 20%, penetrates deeply into the pores of the skin, dissolving sebum and debris that can lead to clogged pores and acne formation.
Trichloroacetic Acid (TCA) at 20% concentration is a powerful chemical agent used in medium-depth chemical peels. TCA facilitates the removal of damaged skin layers, promoting regeneration and repair of the skin.
The combination of these three agents in a topical solution provides a comprehensive approach to skin exfoliation and rejuvenation. This formulation can be used to treat conditions such as common warts, plantar warts, hyperkeratotic skin lesions, acne scars, and severe cases of psoriasis or dermatitis that require aggressive exfoliation to improve skin appearance and function.
For patients, it is important to use this medication exactly as prescribed by your healthcare provider. Apply the solution to the affected area as directed, avoiding contact with surrounding healthy skin to prevent irritation. You may experience mild burning, redness, or peeling at the application site, which is a normal response to treatment. If severe irritation occurs, discontinue use and consult your healthcare provider.
For prescribers, this compounded topical solution offers a potent treatment option for patients with resistant or severe dermatological conditions requiring enhanced exfoliation and removal of hyperkeratotic tissue. Monitor your patients for signs of excessive irritation or adverse reactions, and adjust the treatment regimen as necessary.

This topical solution, containing Lactic Acid 10%, Salicylic Acid 20%, and Trichloroacetic Acid 20%, is designed for external application to the skin. It is formulated to treat various dermatological conditions by providing exfoliation, keratolytic action, and chemical peeling effects.
Patients and prescribers should be cautious when using this formulation in conjunction with other topical medications. The use of additional keratolytic agents, such as benzoyl peroxide or other salicylic acid-containing products, may increase the risk of excessive skin irritation or peeling. It is advisable to avoid concurrent use unless specifically directed by a healthcare professional.
When using this topical solution, it is important to consider the potential interaction with systemic medications. Although the absorption of these acids through the skin is minimal, patients using systemic retinoids, such as isotretinoin, should exercise caution. The combination of retinoids and this topical solution may lead to increased skin sensitivity and irritation. Patients should consult their healthcare provider before using these treatments together.
Additionally, patients using photosensitizing medications, such as certain antibiotics (e.g., tetracyclines) or diuretics, should be aware that this formulation may enhance photosensitivity. It is recommended to use sun protection measures, such as sunscreen and protective clothing, to minimize the risk of sunburn or skin damage.
For patients with a history of allergic reactions to any of the components in this formulation, it is crucial to perform a patch test before full application. If any signs of an allergic reaction occur, such as redness, itching, or swelling, discontinue use immediately and consult a healthcare professional.
Patients with pre-existing skin conditions, such as eczema or psoriasis, should use this formulation with caution, as it may exacerbate these conditions. It is important to discuss with a healthcare provider to determine the appropriateness of this treatment for individual skin conditions.
Patients and prescribers should be vigilant about concurrent use with other topical or systemic medications and take appropriate precautions to ensure appropriate treatment. If you have any questions or concerns about using this formulation, please reach out to us for further guidance.
The Lactic Acid 10%/Salicylic Acid 20%/Trichloroacetic Acid 20% Topical Solution is a specialized liquid formulation designed for external application to the skin. This formulation combines three potent active ingredients, each contributing unique properties to address various dermatological conditions effectively. The solution is crafted to provide targeted treatment, making it a versatile option for patients and prescribers seeking to manage specific skin issues.
Lactic acid, a naturally occurring alpha hydroxy acid (AHA), is included at a concentration of 10%. It functions primarily as an exfoliant, promoting the shedding of dead skin cells from the surface of the skin. This action helps to improve skin texture, reduce the appearance of fine lines, and enhance overall skin radiance. Additionally, lactic acid has moisturizing properties, which can help maintain skin hydration and support the skin's natural barrier function.
Salicylic acid, present at a 20% concentration, is a beta hydroxy acid (BHA) known for its ability to penetrate and exfoliate within the pores. Salicylic acid also possesses anti-inflammatory properties, which can help soothe irritated skin and reduce redness associated with acne and other inflammatory skin conditions.
Trichloroacetic acid (TCA) is included at a 20% concentration, offering a deeper exfoliating effect. TCA is commonly used in chemical peels to treat a variety of skin concerns, including hyperpigmentation, fine lines, and uneven skin tone. By promoting the removal of the outermost layers of the skin, TCA encourages the regeneration of new, healthier skin cells, leading to a more even and rejuvenated complexion.
When combined, these three acids work synergistically to provide a comprehensive exfoliating and rejuvenating effect. The formulation is particularly beneficial for conditions such as acne, hyperpigmentation, and signs of aging. By facilitating the removal of dead skin cells and promoting cell turnover, the solution helps to unclog pores, reduce the appearance of blemishes, and improve overall skin texture and tone.
For patients and prescribers considering this formulation, it is important to follow the recommended application guidelines to achieve optimal results while minimizing potential irritation. The solution should be applied to clean, dry skin, and it is advisable to start with a patch test to assess individual skin sensitivity. As with any topical treatment, the use of sunscreen is recommended to protect the skin from increased sensitivity to UV radiation following exfoliation.
