Why Choose PCA Peel Solutions?
Discover the transformative power of chemical peels with PCA at Fountain Medical Aesthetics.
PCA Skin professional peels are advanced, scientifically formulated treatments designed to improve skin tone, texture, and clarity. These medical-grade chemical peels use carefully balanced blends of exfoliating acids—such as lactic, salicylic, and trichloroacetic (TCA)—to remove the damaged outer layers of skin, revealing a smoother, more radiant complexion underneath.
Each PCA peel is uniquely formulated to target specific skin concerns including acne, hyperpigmentation, fine lines, and uneven texture. By stimulating cell turnover and encouraging collagen production, these peels help refine pores, even skin tone, and promote long-term skin health.
With a range of customizable solutions, PCA peels can be tailored to suit various skin types and sensitivities, offering visible results with minimal downtime. Whether you’re looking for a gentle glow or deeper resurfacing, PCA peels provide a safe and effective path to refreshed, rejuvenated skin.
The Fountain Experience:
1. Consultation & Skin Assessment
Your treatment begins with a personalized consultation. One of our licensed skincare professionals will assess your skin type, concerns, and goals to select the PCA peel formula that best suits your needs. We offer a range of solutions to address acne, hyperpigmentation, fine lines, and overall texture.
2. Skin Preparation
Your skin is thoroughly cleansed and prepped using PCA’s professional-grade prep solution. This removes oil and debris to allow for even penetration of the peel solution.
3. Application of the Peel
The selected PCA peel solution is applied in layers. Most clients feel a mild tingling or warmth, which is completely normal and typically fades quickly. Depending on the formula, the peel may include ingredients like lactic acid, salicylic acid, TCA, or retinoids, all of which work synergistically to exfoliate and stimulate skin renewal.
4. Treatment Customization
Some PCA peels are left on the skin and self-neutralize over time, while others are layered with calming serums or boosters to enhance your results. Your provider may apply a calming post-peel solution and SPF to protect your skin.
5. Post-Treatment Care & Results
There is little to no downtime with most PCA peels. You may experience light flaking or dryness for a few days as your skin naturally sheds the outer layers. You’ll be provided with post-care instructions and recommended products to hydrate, protect, and enhance your results. Most clients notice brighter, smoother skin within a few days, with full results developing over the following week.
PCA peels are safe for all skin types and can be done in a series for maximum benefits. Whether you’re preparing for an event or working on long-term skin goals, this professional-grade treatment delivers noticeable improvements with each session.
Is a Chemical Peel Right for You?
Chemical peels have a reputation that’s bigger than the reality — and for most people considering one, the mental image is more dramatic than what actually happens. Let’s clear that up.
A professional peel works by applying a carefully formulated solution that accelerates your skin’s natural renewal process. The outer layers — the ones carrying sun damage, uneven pigmentation, congestion, and dullness — shed to reveal fresher, healthier skin underneath. The depth of that process depends entirely on the formulation used, and at Fountain, every peel is customized to your skin and your goals.
Chemical peels tend to be a strong fit if you’re dealing with:
- Uneven skin tone or hyperpigmentation
- Acne or post-acne marks
- Fine lines and early signs of aging
- Dull, congested, or rough-textured skin
- Sun damage or age spots
About the peeling — what actually happens:
This is the question most people have and don’t always ask. With PCA peels, most clients experience light flaking or dryness in the days following treatment rather than dramatic sheets of peeling skin. Think of it as accelerated shedding — noticeable up close, manageable in public. Some formulations produce more visible peeling than others, and your provider will tell you exactly what to expect based on the specific peel selected for your skin.
Plan for about a week of skin that looks like it’s going through a transition. Most clients are comfortable going about their normal lives during this period with appropriate skincare and SPF. If you have a significant event coming up, book at least two weeks in advance to give your skin time to fully settle and reveal its results.
A note on skin tone and safety:
PCA peels are formulated to be effective across a range of skin types and tones, including deeper complexions where some peels carry a higher risk of post-inflammatory hyperpigmentation. Your provider will assess your skin carefully before selecting a formulation — this isn’t a one-size-fits-all treatment, and the customization is part of what makes it safe and effective for a broader range of patients.
Before & After
Frequently Asked Questions
Please reach us at info@fountaingh.com if you cannot find an answer to your question.
What skin concerns do PCA Peels treat?
PCA peels are effective for a wide range of concerns including acne and post-acne marks, hyperpigmentation and uneven skin tone, fine lines and early signs of aging, sun damage, dullness, and rough or congested texture. Because every peel at Fountain is customized to your specific skin and goals, the treatment can be dialed toward your primary concern rather than taking a generic approach.
Are PCA Peels safe for all skin types?
Yes — one of the distinguishing features of PCA formulations is that they’re designed to work safely across a range of skin types and tones. Deeper complexions require particular care with chemical peels because of the risk of post-inflammatory hyperpigmentation, and PCA’s approach to ingredient selection and concentration addresses that directly. Your provider will assess your skin before every treatment and select the appropriate formulation for you.
Will my skin peel after the treatment?
Most clients experience light flaking or dryness in the days following a PCA peel rather than dramatic, visible peeling. The degree varies depending on the formulation used and your individual skin. Your provider will give you a specific expectation before you leave — and post-treatment care instructions that support your skin through the process. Most clients are comfortable going about normal activity during the recovery period with appropriate skincare and SPF.
How many treatments are recommended?
A single peel delivers noticeable results, but most clients see the most significant improvement with a series of treatments spaced several weeks apart. The number depends on your skin concern and how your skin responds. Your provider will recommend a treatment plan at your consultation — whether that’s a single session before an event or an ongoing series for long-term skin health goals.
Are there any side effects?
Redness, mild sensitivity, and flaking in the days following treatment are normal and expected — they’re signs that the peel is working. More significant reactions are uncommon when treatment is performed by a trained provider using appropriate formulations for your skin type. Sun sensitivity is heightened after a peel, so SPF is non-negotiable during recovery. We’ll send you home with clear post-care instructions and product recommendations to support your skin through the process.
How is a professional peel different from an at-home peel?
The difference is concentration, formulation, and clinical oversight. At-home peels are formulated conservatively to minimize the risk of misuse — which means they’re limited in how much they can actually do. Professional PCA formulations work at a depth that consumer products can’t reach, targeting the layers where real change happens. The customization to your specific skin type and concern — and the clinical assessment before every treatment — is what makes professional peels meaningfully more effective and appropriately safe.
