Brighten and Firm
Without Visible Peeling
Your skin is constantly renewing itself, but collagen and elastin production naturally slow with age, sun exposure, and everyday stress. Collagen acts as your skin’s internal scaffolding and elastin as the springs that help it bounce back. As these building blocks decline, you may notice fine lines, dullness, uneven texture, enlarged pores, and a loss of firmness.
PRX is a family of innovative skin biorevitalization treatments that encourage your skin to repair itself without the visible peeling of a traditional chemical peel. Rather than stripping away the surface, they work beneath it to stimulate collagen while keeping the outer layer intact. With three formulas to choose from, we personalize every treatment to your skin.
PRX Treatments Treat:
- Fine lines and early signs of aging
- Dull, tired-looking skin
- Uneven skin tone
- Uneven skin texture
- Enlarged pores
- Mild skin laxity
- Sun damage and photoaging
- Dehydrated skin
- Loss of radiance
- Discoloration and melasma
- Rough skin
- Overall skin quality concerns
How PRX Treatments Work
Every PRX formula shares the same patented science. A TCA-based acid is paired with hydrogen peroxide, which controls how the acid interacts with your skin so it can reach the deeper layers and activate collagen production while leaving the surface intact. What sets the three formulas apart is the form of acid used and the actives paired with it.
Benefits of PRX Treatments:
- Stimulates natural collagen and elastin production
- Enhances skin hydration and radiance
- Helps reduce visible signs of aging
- Promotes a more even skin tone
- Three formulas to match your skin concerns
- Little to no visible peeling
- Minimal to no downtime
- Can be performed year-round
- Suitable for all skin types and tones
- Most normal activities can be resumed immediately
PRX Derm Perfexion
PRX Derm Perfexion, formerly known as PRX-T33, blends 33% TCA, hydrogen peroxide, and kojic acid. As the original formula, it is our go-to for rejuvenation and prevention, improving hydration, tone, and texture while softening early signs of aging.
PRX-PLUS
PRX-PLUS uses a modified form of TCA called ammonium trichloroacetate (ATCA) with homocysteic acid, which strengthens the skin’s repair response and helps it shed excess melanin. It suits mature, thicker, or photoaged skin and more stubborn concerns like deeper wrinkles and melasma.
PRX-C
PRX-C adds vitamin C and homocysteic acid to the TCA base, making it the most brightening option in the family. Vitamin C neutralizes free radicals and lifts dullness, so PRX-C is ideal for gray, tired, or environmentally stressed skin that needs an immediate glow.
FAQs
Which PRX Treatment is Right for Me?
That depends on your skin and your goals. PRX Derm Perfexion refreshes and prevents, PRX-PLUS targets more advanced aging and pigmentation, and PRX-C focuses on brightness. Your provider will recommend the best fit at your consultation.
Do PRX Treatments Make Your Skin Peel?
Usually not. PRX is often called the “peel that doesn’t peel” because it stimulates skin renewal without the noticeable flaking of a traditional chemical peel. Some people experience mild dryness or very light peeling, but most see smoother, brighter skin with little to no visible shedding.
What Happens During a PRX Treatment?
After your skin is cleansed, the PRX solution is gently massaged into the treatment area in several layers. Your provider then carefully removes the solution and applies nourishing skincare products. The entire appointment is typically completed in under an hour.
Is There Any Downtime?
One of the biggest advantages of PRX is its minimal downtime. Most patients return to work, social events, and other daily activities immediately, and makeup can usually be applied the same day unless your provider recommends otherwise.
How Many Treatments Will I Need?
While a single treatment can refresh your complexion, most patients achieve their best results with a series of four to five treatments scheduled about one to two weeks apart. During your consultation at Pink Opal, we’ll create a personalized treatment plan based on your goals.
How Long Do Results Last?
The results vary based on your skin, age, and skincare routine. Many patients choose maintenance every three to six months to help preserve their brighter complexion.
