PCA Skin at Pure Body
A professional peel is a treatment plan
Pure Body uses PCA Skin professional peel products. The exact product, preparation, treatment intensity and aftercare should be selected for the individual rather than generalized across every patient.

Treatment Comparison
Chemical peel or Procell Microchanneling?
Both can appear in searches for texture and skin rejuvenation, but they are different procedures. The better question is which approach fits the specific concern and skin.
| Decision point | Chemical Peel | Procell Microchanneling |
|---|---|---|
| Primary concept | Controlled chemical exfoliation/resurfacing using a selected professional peel. | Controlled microchanneling used as a collagen-induction approach. |
| Concerns that may overlap | Tone, pigmentation, acne-prone skin, dullness, selected texture. | Texture, enlarged-looking pores, fine lines, acne-related texture, collagen-focused goals. |
| How Pure Body chooses | By concern, skin type, candidacy, prior treatment, recovery tolerance and overall plan—not by declaring one universally better. | |
Recovery Planning
Peeling, downtime and sun exposure matter
Visible peeling and recovery can vary with the product, treatment intensity and individual response. Your expected aftercare—including product use, makeup, sun exposure and when to resume other treatments—should be reviewed for the specific peel selected.
Do not use a generic internet peel timeline as a substitute for the instructions provided for your actual treatment.
Common Questions
Before your chemical peel
Will my skin visibly peel?
Visible peeling varies by peel and individual response. Some treatments can produce more visible shedding than others, so expectations should be reviewed for the selected protocol.
Can I wear makeup afterward?
Timing depends on the peel and how your skin is recovering. Follow the specific aftercare instructions given for your treatment.
Can chemical peels help dark spots?
Selected peels may be considered for certain pigmentation concerns, but dark spots have different causes and not every pigment problem should be treated the same way.
Can I get a peel for acne?
Selected peels may be considered for acne-prone skin and post-acne discoloration depending on active inflammation and candidacy.
How many peels will I need?
There is no universal number. Treatment planning depends on the concern, peel selected, response and maintenance goals.
How much does a chemical peel cost?
Pricing depends on the selected treatment and plan. Current pricing is reviewed before treatment so there are no surprises.
