Crumlin, County Antrim
Nurse-led PCA chemical peel in Crumlin
People travel to NUA Aesthetic from Crumlin for PCA chemical peel because the clinic is deliberately small. One nurse, one room, and appointments that are not stacked back to back.
In short: professional PCA Skin peels and facials, custom-layered to your skin type for a healthy post-treatment glow without aggressive downtime. Lauren will tell you if it is not the right treatment for you, which happens more often than you might expect.
The studio is in Carryduff, County Down, and also sees clients from Parkgate, Stoneyford, Roughfort and the surrounding County Antrim area. The exact address is sent once your appointment is confirmed.
Why Crumlin clients choose NUA
Consultations are included, unhurried and honest. If PCA chemical peel is not the right treatment for your skin, or not the right treatment yet, you will be told so rather than sold something. Several Crumlin clients have left a first appointment with a skincare plan and no treatment booked.
What PCA Peels & Facials involves
Skin analysis
Lauren assesses your skin type, sensitivity and current condition, then selects the peel formulation and strength for that appointment.
Preparation
A thorough double cleanse and prep step, which is what allows the peel to work evenly rather than patchily.
Custom layering
The peel is applied in layers, with your skin's response monitored between each one. Layering is what keeps it controlled.
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
PCA Peels & Facials questions, answered for Crumlin
Can peels be combined with other treatments?
Yes, though not on the same day as microneedling or injectables. Lauren will sequence them so the skin has time to recover between treatments.
Where exactly is the clinic if I am travelling from Crumlin?
The studio is in Carryduff, County Down. It is a private home studio rather than a high street clinic, so the full address is sent on booking confirmation along with parking guidance.
Are PCA peels safe for sensitive skin?
Yes, and it is one of their strengths. Because each peel is custom-layered and the response monitored during application, the strength is matched to your skin rather than applied as a fixed protocol.
What are the appointment times like?
NUA runs by appointment only with flexible scheduling, including times outside standard working hours. That tends to suit clients travelling from Crumlin who would rather not take time off work.
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 Crumlin clients.
Will my skin visibly peel?
Usually not dramatically. PCA peels are designed to work progressively rather than aggressively, so most people experience mild tightness and perhaps light flaking rather than obvious shedding.
Is there parking available?
Yes, parking is straightforward at the studio, which is one of the practical advantages over a town centre clinic for anyone driving in from Crumlin.
Can I wear make-up afterwards?
It is best avoided for the rest of the day to let the skin settle. From the following morning, normal make-up is fine.
Do I need a consultation before PCA chemical peel?
Yes. Every treatment includes a consultation so Lauren can assess your skin and confirm the plan is right for you. It is included in the appointment rather than charged separately.
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.
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.
