PCA Ultra and 6% Pure Retinol Peels

Elements Medical provide the PCA Ultra Peel treatment at our clinic on Thorne Road, Doncaster, easily accessible from the town centre and surrounding areas. This particular type of chemical peels works its magic with secret ingredients designed to deeply exfoliate the surface layers of your skin.

You can achieve amazing results with the perfect peel. Some patients require multiple treatments but many only need one treatment to notice the difference.

Please note that before this treatment you will have a consultation where you will be given instructions and products to start preparing your skin for the treatment. Skincare will also be provided for after the treatment. These form part of the treatment and must be used to ensure you achieve the desired results.

Active Ingredients

• Lactic Acid (24%) – an alpha hydroxy acid (AHA) naturally found in milk and sugars. It breaks down the bonds between cells (desmosomes) to allow for easier exfoliation of dead surface cells, hydrates the skin, and inhibits melanogenesis by suppressing the formation of tyrosinase.


• Trichloroacetic Acid (TCA) (10%) – a superficial and medium-depth peeling agent that helps minimize the appearance of fine lines, wrinkles, and acne scarring.

Key Ingredients

• Alpha-Lipoic Acid (Thioctic Acid) – a natural compound with antioxidant and anti-inflammatory properties that interferes with the internal pathways of hyperpigmentation.


• Emblica – a botanical also known as Indian gooseberry or the Malacca tree. It contains a high concentration of tannins, which have been shown to reduce discoloration and the visible signs of aging.


• Silymarin – a powerful antioxidant that provides anti-inflammatory benefits and has a protective effect against UVA-induced oxidative stress. It suppresses UVB-induced skin edema and the formation of sunburn cells.
