Are you suffering from any of these skin problems: acne, fine lines and wrinkles, psoriasis, and hyperpigmentation (dark spots)?
You will soon enjoy one of the best treatments for your skin.
A skincare pioneer which remains one of the most trusted brands when it comes to non-prescription and clinically researched skincare products and treatments in the US and 60 other countries will soon be launched in the Philippines.
PCA SKIN has been partnering with dermatologists for nearly two decades in providing healthy and beautiful skin at the cellular level. It sets the bar high when it comes to innovative and professional daily care products. On July 23, it will officially be introduced to the Philippine market by its chief scientist, Dr. Jennifer Linder, who will fly in from Arizona just for the event.
Check out the expert skincare solutions that PCA Skin has to offer after the jump.
An industry leader in clinical and professional skin care, PCA continues to combine science and beauty and remains committed to the innovation of highly-effective formulations with ingredients that are of the highest quality for dermatologists to treat their patients’ skin with.
PCA Professional Products and PCA Skin Clinical Care Products incorporate the latest in medically and scientifically researched ingredients, such as alpha and beta hydroxyl acids, retinol, and active botanicals, among others, to deliver optimal results. The home care products nourish, hydrate, and rejuvenate your skin, delivering results without irritation since they are free of color additives, synthetic fragrances, harsh alcohols, comedogenic oils, and other known sensitizers.
The company is recognized as one of the top international producers of chemical peels, now the second most popular non-surgical cosmetic procedure performed by plastic surgeons and cosmetic dermatologists. The combined effects of their products’ ingredients provides corrective and nutritive benefits to your skin, while exfoliating the surface to rid it of dead cells, prevent pore clogging, lighten dark spots, help minimize fine lines and wrinkles, and give you an even skin tone. PCA Skin offers professional treatments that gently stimulate, firm up, and lighten skin, through a variety of formulations that cover a wide range of skin types and skin problems.
The brand’s easy to use and skin-friendly professional treatments are separated into five distinct categories. Often dubbed as “designer peels,†PCA Peels are customized for each patient, using different combinations of peels and serums. Peels may be layered and left on until the following day for best results.
The five different types of peels for different skin concerns are on the next page.

Hi Maria, yes, you would really have to ask your dermatologist about their products. She’ll be in the best position to recommend the product that’s best for you and apply it expertly. Let’s watch out also for the concept of their boutiques that they said would open very soon, from which we could avail of the products.

Chin,
Try to ask your dermatologist about “Acnetrex”. Its an oral medication for acne & you take it for around 6-7 months depending on your derma’s prescription. 98% of those who take it never has any acne again. Including me! I’ve been suffering for many years w/ it and I’m sooo happy to say that for 6 months now (after I last took it) my skin is smooth and acne free. It truly is a wonder product. Its a bit costly, but then you only take it for the few months and never again, compared to changing & buying products for many years for acne.

Hi Chin, the Professional Products are the ones that need to be administered by a dermatologist and can actually only be availed through dermatologists (check if your derma has these products). PCA Skin, however, also offers a home care kit, which contains products you can use at home to maintain your skin. I believe these products will be available once the PCA Skin boutiques open in certain areas in the metro.

Can you plaese send me an email alert so as for me to know when and where to go for the lanching of the PCA poducts.. i really need a skin solution…salamat po

@foxy_chick
does acnetrex have side effects? i’m afraid that it might be similar to accutane which is harmful for the body.
is the pca skin line recommended only for those who already underwent a previous professional skin peeling?

PCA Skin is already available in Ageless Center 4th Flr. Festival Mall in Alabang. A dermatologist will do the peel after a nice and relaxxing facial. Different peels and serums will be placed on your face depending on the condition of your skin. We are also having great results with this peel on dark underarms and “singit”. A smoothing body peel can be done on any body part for chicken skin or uneven skin tone. You can call 7710851 for more info.
