Hello and Welcome to ‘Ask A Doctor’ service. I have reviewed your query and here is my advice.
TCA is a medium depth chemical peel. You seem to have developed depigmentation which is a complication of a deep peel like TCA. Most of the time it recovers on its own, however, I suggest you to apply tacrolimus 0.03-0.1% ointment, twice daily for a few weeks. It is a prescription ointment.
Hope I have answered your query. Let me know if I can assist you further.
