PCA Chemical Peels
Peels get a reputation for being intense, and some are. But most of what we do here is gentler than people expect. We carry four PCA peels, from one that's safe for reactive, rosacea-prone skin to a retinol peel that will genuinely flake for a few days — and the right one depends on your skin and how much downtime you can live with.
Living in the Treasure Valley means dry winters, strong summer sun, and wind that leaves skin tight most of the year. That changes what we'd recommend and when. We'll talk it through before we pick anything.
PCA SENSI PEEL
A gentle yet effective peel for sensitive or first-time clients. Lactic acid and trichloroacetic acid (TCA) work together to brighten, calm, and strengthen the skin barrier — leaving your complexion balanced, hydrated, and refreshed.
Perfect for: Redness, sensitivity, rosacea-prone, or reactive skin.
30 Min - $150
PCA PIGMENT CORRECT
This advanced treatment targets stubborn dark spots and uneven tone using innovative pigment-correcting acids. It brightens dull, uneven complexions and delivers a luminous, even glow.
Perfect for: Hyperpigmentation, melasma, or post-acne marks.
30 Min - $200
PCA RETINOL PEEL + DERMAPLANE
The ultimate corrective peel for advanced rejuvenation. This intensive retinol treatment dramatically refines texture, smooths fine lines, and boosts cell turnover for visibly firmer, younger-looking skin. Expect moderate peeling and radiant renewal in 5–7 days.
Perfect for: Aging, rough texture, deep pigment, or uneven tone.

F.A.Q.'s
When is the best time of year for a peel?
Fall and winter are ideal. Peeled skin is more sun-sensitive, and Idaho summers make that hard to manage — especially if you're on the water or outside with kids. We still do peels in summer, we just tend toward the gentler ones and we're strict about SPF. If you're set on a retinol peel, September through April is the typical window.
How do I know which peel is right for me?
Short version: you don't have to. Tell us what's bothering you and how much downtime you can live with, and we'll pick. If you want the long version — Sensi is where we start most first-timers and anyone with reactive or rosacea-prone skin. Ultra is for fine lines, dullness, and sun damage. Pigment Correct is for stubborn dark spots and melasma. Retinol + Dermaplane is the strongest and the one that actually flakes. You can always start gentler and go deeper next time.
Will I actually peel after a chemical peel?
Depends which one. Sensi and Ultra usually give you light flaking around the mouth and nose for a couple of days, if anything — most people go to work and nobody notices. Pigment Correct is a bit more. The Retinol Peel is the one to plan around: expect moderate peeling that starts around day three and finishes up by day five to seven. Not sheets of skin, but visible flaking that makeup won't fully cover.
Can I work through a peel?
For Sensi, Ultra, and Pigment Correct, yes — almost everyone does. For the Retinol Peel, you can, but you'll be flaky midweek and you may not love photos. If you've got something important coming up, tell us and we'll time it or pick something gentler.
How many peels will I need?
Most people see a difference after one. For real change in pigment, texture, or fine lines, plan on a series of three to six spaced 4-6 weeks apart. We won't promise you a number up front — your skin, your home care, and how fast you turn cells over all change the answer. What we will do is tell you honestly what we're seeing as we go.
What should I do before and after a peel?
Before: stop retinol about five days ahead, skip waxing or laser on the area for a week, and come in without makeup if that's easy. Let us know about any prescription acne medication — that changes what we'll use.
After: no picking, no scrubbing, no hot yoga or saunas for a few days, and SPF every single day whether it's sunny or not. Picking is what turns a good peel into a dark spot. We'll send you home knowing exactly what to use.
Peel, facial, or microchanneling — which should I book?
A peel is best for tone, pigment, and texture, and it's the fastest route to a visible change. A facial is better for maintenance, hydration, calming reactive skin, and an hour of actually relaxing. Microchanneling is what we recommend for acne scarring and deeper texture, because it works below the surface in a way peels can't. If you're not sure, book a skin consultation — the $50 goes toward whatever you book that day.
