PCA Chemical Peels & Facials, Antrim

PCA Peels & Facials clients from Antrim are seen at NUA's private studio in Carryduff. No waiting room, no rotating practitioners, and no pressure to book anything on the day.

Professional PCA Skin peels and facials, custom-layered to your skin type for a healthy post-treatment glow without aggressive downtime. Every plan starts with a proper assessment rather than a price list, because the right treatment depends entirely on what your skin is actually doing.

The studio is in Carryduff, County Down, and also sees clients from Craigarogan, Crumlin, Templepatrick and the surrounding County Antrim area. The exact address is sent once your appointment is confirmed.

Serving Antrim and the surrounding area

Lauren is a registered Children's Nurse who graduated with First Class Honours from Northumbria University, and holds CIDESCO and ITEC qualifications in beauty therapy. That combination is unusual, and it is why PCA chemical peel here is treated as a clinical decision first and a cosmetic one second. Antrim clients see the same practitioner at every appointment.

What PCA Peels & Facials involves

  1. Skin analysis

    Lauren assesses your skin type, sensitivity and current condition, then selects the peel formulation and strength for that appointment.

  2. Preparation

    A thorough double cleanse and prep step, which is what allows the peel to work evenly rather than patchily.

  3. Custom layering

    The peel is applied in layers, with your skin's response monitored between each one. Layering is what keeps it controlled.

  4. Finish and protect

    Neutralising, calming and protective products are applied, and you leave with clear aftercare and SPF guidance.

Who it suits

  • Dark spots and hyperpigmentation
  • Acne and congestion
  • Rosacea and persistent redness
  • Dry or dehydrated skin
  • Dull, uneven tone and rough texture
  • Sensitive skin types that react badly to harsher resurfacing

What Antrim clients want to know about PCA chemical peel

How soon can I have a peel before an event?

Allow at least a week for a medical peel. A PCA facial is much more forgiving and is often booked two or three days before an event specifically for the glow.

What is the difference between a PCA facial and a PCA medical peel?

The facial is a gentler treatment focused on immediate glow, hydration and maintenance. The medical peel uses stronger formulations to target specific concerns such as pigmentation, acne or texture, and is custom-layered with more active ingredients.

Is there anything I should avoid beforehand?

Stop retinoids and exfoliating acids five to seven days before, avoid sun exposure and fake tan, and do not book within two weeks of any waxing on the treatment area.

Is there any downtime?

Very little. Mild tightness, occasionally light flaking. Aftercare guidance is given at the appointment, and Lauren is contactable afterwards if anything concerns you.

How long do the results last?

The glow from a single treatment lasts a few weeks. Structural improvements in pigmentation and texture from a series are longer lasting, and are maintained through daily skincare and SPF.

How long do results last?

A series is recommended, with results maintained by ongoing skincare. Maintenance is discussed at your review so you can plan around it.

Can I combine PCA chemical peel with other treatments?

Yes. PCA Peels & Facials sequences well with several other treatments, and Lauren will plan the order so each one has room to work rather than doing everything at once.

How much does PCA chemical peel cost?

Pricing is listed openly on this page and is the same for all clients regardless of where they travel from. There is no separate charge for the consultation and no call-out or travel fee for Antrim clients.

Will a peel help with pigmentation?

Yes, pigmentation is one of the concerns peels handle best. Improvement is gradual and requires diligent daily SPF, since sun exposure will undo the result.

Who will carry out my treatment?

Lauren, every time. She is an NMC registered nurse and CIDESCO qualified skin specialist. There is no rotating team, so Antrim clients see the same practitioner from consultation through to review.
