If you’re looking for brighter, smoother, more youthful-looking skin — pairing microdermabrasion with a PCA chemical peel may be the ultimate treatment duo. Both are powerful on their own, but when stacked strategically, the results are amplified, giving you a more radiant complexion in far less time.
At Amethyst Wellness, we love this combination because it addresses multiple layers of skin health at once — exfoliating the surface, encouraging cell turnover, improving texture, and stimulating long-term renewal.
Here’s why this duo works so beautifully.
Step 1 — Microdermabrasion Prepares the Skin
Microdermabrasion gently sands away the outermost layer of dead, dull skin cells using a fine diamond-tip wand. This process:
✨ Removes buildup that blocks product penetration
✨ Softens texture, rough patches, and fine lines
✨ Brightens tone and reduces surface discoloration
✨ Allows the peel to work deeper and more effectively
Think of it as resurfacing the canvas before applying fresh paint — microdermabrasion clears the way so the PCA peel can truly shine.
Step 2 — PCA Chemical Peels Transform at a Cellular Level
Once the skin is exfoliated, a PCA chemical peel is applied to stimulate deeper renewal. PCA peels are known for being effective yet gentle, making them excellent for many skin types.
Benefits include:
💧 Smoother, more hydrated skin
🍊 A brighter, more even complexion
🧬 Improved collagen production
🫧 Reduced appearance of fine lines and wrinkles
🌿 Fewer breakouts and congestion
🎯 Lightening of sun damage, melasma, and acne scars
Because the dull surface layer has already been removed through microdermabrasion, the peel can penetrate more evenly and with greater impact — meaning better results with less downtime.
The Power Is in the Pairing
When these two treatments are combined, you experience:
| Benefit | Result |
|---|---|
| Deeper exfoliation | Skin feels ultra smooth and polished |
| Better peel absorption | More dramatic brightening and clarity |
| Faster visible results | Glow appears quickly — often within days |
| Longer lasting improvements | Continued cell turnover = sustained radiance |
Clients often notice:
- ✔ A visible glow
- ✔ Softer, smoother touch
- ✔ Smaller-looking pores
- ✔ Healthier, more youthful-looking skin
This is a favorite before events, photos, or anytime your skin needs a refresh.

This combination is beneficial for most skin types, especially those looking to improve:
