Who are peels for?
Chemical peels are for everyone. Whether your skin is dry, oily, combination or even sensitive, there is a chemical peel treatment that will work for you.
What do peels improve?
Chemical peels are safe and effective in improving and preventing most skin conditions:
- Aging
- Acne
- Discoloration
- Sensitive skin/rosacea
Why do I need a peel?
Our skin naturally exfoliates, gently shedding dead skin cells so subtly that most of us don’t even notice. However, as we age, this process tends to slow, resulting in a dull complexion.
How do peels work?
Chemical peels speed up the exfoliation process, encouraging cell turnover that leaves the skin looking fresh and healthy. The result is exfoliation after a treatment, often seen in the form of flaking that lasts a couple days. Ingredients in the peel solution are also working to create new cells that function properly, not only visibly improving the skin, but correcting from
within.
The PCA SKIN peel difference
When do I get a peel?
Chemical peels are usually recommended once a month, paralleling the skin’s natural 28 day cell turnover process for the best results. Depending on your skin concern your aesthetician may recommend them more or less frequently. PCA SKIN chemical peels have little to no downtime, allowing for treatments that won’t disrupt your schedule.

Post – Procedure Skin Treatment Tips
For post- procedure
General Guidelines:
- After receiving a PCA Skin professional treatment, you should not necessarily expect to “peel”. However, light flaking in a few localized areas for several days is typical. Most patients who undergo these treatments have residual redness for approximately one to twelve hours post procedure.
- As with all peels and treatments, it is recommended that makeup not be applied the day of treatment, as it is ideal to allow the skin to stabilize and rest overnight; however makeup may be applied 15 minutes after the treatment if desired.
- To minimize side effects and maximize results use the post-procedure solution for 3 to 5 days or until flaking has resolved.
- If the skin feels tight, apply Rebalance for oily to normal skin types or silkcoat balm for drier skin types to moisturize as needed. For maximum hydration, you can apply hydrating serum under Rebalance or silkcoat balm.
- Moisturizer should be applied at least twice a day but can be applied more frequently for hydration and to decrease the appearance of flaking.
- It is recommended that other topical, over the counter medications or alpha hydroxy acid products not be applied to the skin seven days post procedure, as they may cause irritation.
- It is recommended to delay use of trentionoin, retin-A, Differin, Renova, Tazorac, Avage, EpiDup or Ziana five days post procedure. Consult your physician before temporarily discontinuing use of any prescription medications.
- Avoid direct sun exposure and excessive heat, Use hydrator plus SPF 25, protection hydrator SPF 25, perfecting face & body hydrator SPF 30 or Total Defense Calming Hydrator SPF 25 for broad spectrum UV protection.
- Do not go to a tanning bed for at least two weeks post procedure. This practice should be discontinued due to the increased risk of skin cancer and signs of aging.
- Do not pick or pull on any loosening or peeling skin. This could potentially cause hyperpigmentation.
- Do not have electrolysis, facial waxing and/or depilatories for approximately 5 days.
Do not have another treatment until your clinician advises you to do so.
Preparation for a peel treatment:
- You will be having a light peel treatment on the day of your appointment. Please follow the outline below to prepare.
- Use of PCA Skin daily care products prior to your peel will prepare the skin, allow for better treatment results and reduce the risk of complications. This is recommended but not mandatory. Please consult your physician or skin care clinician for appropriate recommendations for your skin type and condition.
It is recommended that you take the following consideration:
- For best results, it is recommended that you use PCA Skin daily care products 10 to 14 days prior to treatment.
- If you are lactating, pregnant or may be pregnant, only an oxygenating Trio or Detox Gel deep pore treatment is appropriate. Consult your OB/Gyn before receiving any treatment.
- Do not go a tanning bed two weeks prior to treatment( this practice should be discontinued due to the increase risk of skin cancer and signs of aging).
- It is recommended that extended sun exposure be avoided, especially in the 10 days prior to treatment.
- It is recommended to delay use of tretinoin, Retin- A, Renova, Differin, Tazorac, Avage, EpiDuo, Ziana and high-percentage AHA and BHA products for approximately five days prior to treatment, Consult your physician before temporally discontinuing of any prescription medications.
PCA Skin Superficial peels results in little to no downtime but create dramatic and visible results. Treatments may cause slight redness, tightness, peeling flaking or temporary dryness. Most patients find it unnecessary to apply makeup, as the skin will be smooth, dewy and radiant following your treatment. If you would like to apply makeup, allow approximately 15 minutes for the PH of the skin to stabilize before applying foundation.
All of our services stop 5 minutes prior to the end of each session.
