Study to compare the efficacy of 50% glycolic acid with 65% trichloroacetic acid in the treatment of atrophic acne scar by CROSS technique
Improvement is best observed with 65% TCA. Adverse effects were noted more with 65% TCA, especially acneiform eruption which was lacking in the previous studies. GA can be a safer alternative to TCA with acceptable results. Our study opens the scientific window for future research on different concentrations of GA as a CROSS agent.
