The recent pandemic has changed the way patients and aesthetic physicians interact. Currently, some practices remain closed and others are in the process of re-opening, creating a backlog of patients waiting for treatments. PCA SKIN® (Scottsdale, Ariz.) has stepped in to fill the void and keep patients and doctors connected with the Micro Peel At-Home Kit.
PCA SKIN has been an innovator and leader in professional skincare treatments for over 30 years. Their innovative Micro Peel At-Home Kit offers a solution for patients who want to maintain healthy skin as they wait for an in-office visit, while physicians have the opportunity to introduce their patients to the results that professional-grade treatments can provide.

Suneel Chilukuri, MD, of Refresh Dermatology (Houston, Texas) sees the benefits for both his practice and his patients. “This kit is a great option for our patients who are visiting less due to social distancing, who live far away, or simply are not able to get in for an appointment as soon as they would like. Not only does it help patients maintain their results in between office visits, but is a great way to introduce patients to peels who have been too shy to try a professional grade peel in the past. This treatment helps ease them into the idea of a peel and gives them a glimpse into the real results they can achieve.”
The Micro Peel At-Home Kit offers a professional treatment protocol that patients can safely do from the comfort of home. Currently only available through PCA SKIN’s network of licensed professionals, the kit features PCA SKIN’s signature Enzymatic Treatment formulation that includes a combination of enzymes and alpha hydroxy acids (AHAs) to exfoliate the skin as it improves the appearance of aging, blemishes and discoloration.
Dr. Chilukuri explained the product lineup. “A gentle facial wash is included for cleansing, followed by a hydrating toner and then the Detoxifying Mask to prepare the skin for the professional grade Enzymatic Treatment. Next, the client will apply the enzyme treatment with the included pro-series brush and massage it into the skin. This step helps remove dead skin cells and provides an immediate glow, and over the following week there is improvement of fine lines and discoloration. Included in the kit is PCA SKIN’s Rejuvenating Serum and ReBalance, for continued improvement of skin texture and a hydrating sunscreen for outdoor use.”
While the pandemic has been challenging, PCA SKIN’s innovative kit provides a solution for patients of all skin types to receive a professional-grade skincare experience at home. And since this product is only available to consumers through professionals, it is the perfect kit to help professionals promote or continue their business in the current environment.
“In my opinion, the Micro Peel At-Home Kit comes at the perfect time, when COVID-19 has either shut down practices, or created a backlog of patients waiting to get in to see their skincare professional,” Dr. Chilukuri added. “Unlike most over the counter products, the Micro Peel At-Home Kit provides professional grade treatment to revitalize the skin and reveal an immediate brightening result, and delivers everything a patient needs for a true at-home skincare experience.”
