What Are PCA Chemical Peels?
PCA chemical peels, also known as phenol croton oil peels, are a type of chemical peel that uses a combination of phenol and croton oil to deeply exfoliate and rejuvenate the skin. These peels are typically used to treat deep wrinkles, acne scarring, and sun damage, and can be performed on the face, neck, and hands.
The PCA peel is a deep penetrating peel that is applied in layers. The first layer is applied to the skin, and as the skin begins to peel, additional layers are applied until the desired depth of penetration is achieved. The peel is left on the skin for a specific amount of time, depending on the individual’s skin type and the desired results.
Before the treatment, the skin is thoroughly cleansed and a pre-treatment solution is applied to prepare the skin for the peel. A neutralizing solution is also applied after the peel to stop the chemical reaction and soothe the skin.
The downtime for PCA chemical peel is usually around one week, during which time the skin will be red, swollen and peeling. Sun protection is a must during the healing process.
