Professional Exfoliation Moves into Daily Homecare 

Church Pharmacy has expanded its PCA SKIN® portfolio with the launch of Triple Exfoliation Peel Pads, a professional-grade homecare treatment developed to support visible skin renewal between clinic visits. 

The new pads bring together physical, chemical and enzymatic exfoliation in a single step. A textured woven pad provides surface exfoliation, while a blend of AHAs, BHAs and PHAs supports cellular turnover and skin clarity. Prickly pear extract supplies the enzymatic element, with niacinamide and liquorice root extract included to support hydration, radiance and the appearance of visible redness. 

It is a considered addition to PCA SKIN®’s established Peel + Correct approach, translating the brand’s professional peel expertise into a format that can be incorporated into a practitioner-led homecare plan. 

Why the Launch Matters Now 

Clients are more informed about active skincare than ever, but greater access does not always lead to better routines. Over-exfoliation, poorly matched actives and inconsistent product use remain familiar challenges for practitioners managing skin health. 

Triple Exfoliation Peel Pads offer clinics a more structured way to recommend at-home exfoliation. Rather than positioning resurfacing as a standalone retail purchase, practitioners can place the product within a wider treatment plan based on the client’s skin, professional procedures and tolerance. 

The emphasis is on controlled exfoliation that supports the skin barrier, rather than pursuing intensity for its own sake. That balance makes the launch particularly relevant as clients increasingly expect visible results without compromising hydration or everyday skin comfort. 

Extending the Treatment Journey 

In practice, the pads sit between professional treatments and conventional daily skincare. They may be recommended to help maintain texture, clarity and radiance following a clinic-led programme, or introduced as part of a longer-term corrective homecare routine. 

They are not intended to replace professional peels. Their value lies in helping clinics connect appointments more effectively, giving clients a clear maintenance step while keeping product selection under professional guidance. 

A Commercially Relevant Retail Addition

For PCA SKIN® stockists, the launch creates a practical new conversation around treatment maintenance and repeat purchasing. The pad format is easy for clients to understand and can be integrated into post-treatment recommendations, skin programmes or homecare reviews without requiring an extensive routine change. 

It also gives clinics an opportunity to reinforce their role beyond the treatment room. When homecare is professionally selected and linked to a clear treatment objective, retail becomes part of the clinical journey rather than an add-on at reception.
