PCA Skin Triple Exfoliation Peel Pads

PCA Skin Triple Exfoliation Peel Pads are an innovative, multi-corrective exfoliating treatment designed to renew the skin's surface while maintaining hydration and supporting the skin barrier. Powered by PCA Skin's patent-pending Triple Exfoliation Technology, these convenient pre-soaked pads combine physical, chemical, and enzymatic exfoliation for controlled resurfacing without the harshness often associated with traditional exfoliating treatments.

Each dual-sided pad features a textured surface for enhanced exfoliation and a smoother surface for delicate areas. A blend of alpha hydroxy acids (AHAs), beta hydroxy acid (BHA), and polyhydroxy acids (PHAs) works alongside prickly pear extract to remove dull surface cells, improve the appearance of pores, and promote more even skin texture.

The formula also incorporates niacinamide, licorice root extract, and palmitoyl tetrapeptide-7 to help improve visible redness, uneven tone, and signs of aging while supporting skin hydration and barrier health.

Designed for use after cleansing and toning, these pads prepare the skin for subsequent serums and moisturizers. They are suitable for all skin types and may be used daily as tolerated.

Key Benefits

• Triple Exfoliation Technology: Combines physical, chemical, and enzymatic exfoliation for controlled skin renewal.
• Pore Refinement: Helps minimize the appearance of enlarged pores and reduce surface congestion.
• Smoother Texture: Improves roughness, dullness, and uneven skin texture.
• Skin Barrier Support: Promotes exfoliation while helping maintain hydration and barrier health.
• Visible Rejuvenation: Helps improve fine lines, wrinkles, uneven tone, and redness.
• Convenient Application: Soft, pre-soaked pads deliver an easy, consistent exfoliating step.

After cleansing and toning, use the enclosed tweezers to remove one pre-soaked pad from the jar.

Gently sweep across the face and neck, avoiding the eye area. Use the textured side for areas requiring additional exfoliation, such as the T-zone, and the smoother side for more delicate areas.

Follow with PCA Skin treatment serums and broad-spectrum sunscreen during the day, or moisturizer in the evening.

Frequency: May be used daily as tolerated. Begin 2–3 times weekly if introducing exfoliating acids, then increase according to skin tolerance.

Dr. Bomer's Application Tip: These pads can also be incorporated into a routine for the chest and other areas of the body that benefit from gentle exfoliation. Adjust frequency according to skin sensitivity.

Precautions: Avoid broken or irritated skin. Use caution when combining with retinoids or other exfoliating treatments. Daily broad-spectrum sunscreen is essential when using exfoliating acids.

Triple Exfoliation Technology

PCA Skin's patent-pending system combines three complementary methods of exfoliation:

• Physical Exfoliation: A dual-sided woven pad gently removes surface debris and dead skin cells. The textured side provides more exfoliation, while the smooth side is designed for delicate areas.
• Chemical Exfoliation: A blend of AHAs, BHA, and PHAs promotes controlled resurfacing, pore refinement, and smoother skin texture.
• Enzymatic Exfoliation: Prickly pear extract supports the skin's natural exfoliation processes.

Lactic Acid, Glycolic Acid & Mandelic Acid (AHAs) – Exfoliate surface cells to improve dullness, uneven texture, and the appearance of fine lines.

Salicylic Acid (BHA) – Oil-soluble exfoliant that helps clear pore congestion and refine the appearance of enlarged pores.

Gluconolactone & Lactobionic Acid (PHAs) – Provide gentle surface exfoliation with hydration-supporting properties.

Niacinamide – Supports the skin's moisture barrier, helps calm visible redness, and improves uneven skin tone.

Licorice Root Extract – Botanical ingredient that helps brighten the appearance of discoloration and promote a more even complexion.

Palmitoyl Tetrapeptide-7 – Peptide that supports the appearance of firmer, smoother skin and helps reduce visible signs of aging.

What are PCA Skin Triple Exfoliation Peel Pads?

PCA Skin Triple Exfoliation Peel Pads are pre-soaked exfoliating treatment pads that combine physical, chemical, and enzymatic exfoliation. They help improve skin texture, radiance, pore appearance, and visible signs of aging while supporting skin hydration and barrier health.

Can PCA Skin Triple Exfoliation Peel Pads be used every day?

Yes. PCA Skin designed these pads for daily use as tolerated. Individuals new to exfoliating acids may prefer starting two to three times weekly and increasing gradually according to skin tolerance.

Are these peel pads suitable for sensitive skin?

PCA Skin identifies the product as suitable for all skin types, including sensitive skin. However, sensitivity to exfoliating acids varies. Begin with less frequent application and monitor for dryness, stinging, or irritation.

Do these peel pads help with clogged pores and congestion?

Yes. The exfoliating acid blend includes salicylic acid, which helps loosen buildup within pores, while the other exfoliating components remove dull surface cells. With consistent use, skin may appear clearer and smoother.

Can I use these pads with retinol?

These pads contain multiple exfoliating acids. Although they may be incorporated into routines that include retinoids, alternating application nights is a sensible starting approach to reduce the risk of over-exfoliation.

Should I use these pads before or after my serums?

Use the pads after cleansing and toning, before applying treatment serums and moisturizers. During the day, finish with broad-spectrum sunscreen.

Can I use PCA Skin Triple Exfoliation Peel Pads on my neck and chest?

Yes, provided the skin tolerates exfoliation. The neck and chest may be more sensitive than the face, so begin conservatively and avoid irritated areas.

Are the pads fragranced?

Dr. Bomer describes the pads as unscented in her personal experience. Fragrance-free status should be confirmed against the manufacturer's complete ingredient list.

What makes Triple Exfoliation Peel Pads different from ordinary toner pads?

Unlike basic toner pads, this treatment combines a textured pad, exfoliating acids, and prickly pear extract for three complementary methods of exfoliation. The formula also includes ingredients that support hydration, skin tone, and barrier health.
