PCA Chemical Peels & Facials for Templepatrick and County Antrim
If you are looking into PCA chemical peel around Templepatrick, the first thing worth knowing is that NUA is a private nurse-led studio rather than a salon or a high street chain.
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.
Appointments run from a private home studio in Carryduff. Templepatrick clients often book alongside neighbours from Straid and Donegore, and parking is straightforward.
A nurse-led approach
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. Templepatrick clients see the same practitioner at every appointment.
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
What Templepatrick clients want to know about PCA chemical peel
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.
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.
Do peels help with acne?
Yes. They help control active breakouts by clearing congestion and regulating oil, and improve the marking left behind. For established scarring, microneedling is usually the stronger option.
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.
Where exactly is the clinic if I am travelling from Templepatrick?
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.
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.
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.
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.
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 Templepatrick clients.
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 Templepatrick clients see the same practitioner from consultation through to review.
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.
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.
