What is the Catara Bio Rejuvenation Peel at Catara Med Spa in Algonquin, IL?

It is the PRX-T33 protocol, a needle-free peel your provider applies in office in about 30 minutes. The solution contains TCA (trichloroacetic acid) and hydrogen peroxide, and the visit is usually one of a short series rather than a one off appointment.

Who is a good candidate for the Catara Bio Rejuvenation Peel at Catara Med Spa?

That is what the consultation is for. Your provider looks at your skin, asks what you are hoping to change, and tells you whether the Catara Bio Rejuvenation Peel is an appropriate service for you before anything is scheduled. If it is not the right fit, we will say so and explain what is.

What results can I expect from the Catara Bio Rejuvenation Peel?

What this treatment can do for your own skin is something your provider goes over with you at consultation, and it depends on your skin and on how many visits you have. Results may vary from person to person.

Is the Catara Bio Rejuvenation Peel a good fit for sensitive or reactive skin?

That is a consultation question rather than something we can answer in advance. The solution contains TCA and hydrogen peroxide, so tell your provider about your skin’s history, including any reaction you have had to an exfoliating or acid based treatment before, and they will tell you whether this is an appropriate service for you. If it is not, we will say so and explain what is.

What should I expect during and after a Catara Bio Rejuvenation Peel?

You may feel mild tingling or warmth while the solution is on your skin. No recovery time is required, so you can return to your regular activities from your appointment, and some clients still notice mild redness and flaking for a few days afterward. Plan for sun protection during that time.

How is the Catara Bio Rejuvenation Peel different from a chemical peel at Catara Med Spa?

Catara books them as separate services at our Algonquin, IL location, and each is booked under its own name. What is specific to this one is the protocol: it is the PRX-T33 peel, it is needle-free, and the solution contains TCA and hydrogen peroxide. Which one suits you is a consultation question, and your provider will tell you if a chemical peel is the better match for what you want to change.

Can the Catara Bio Rejuvenation Peel be combined with other treatments at Catara Med Spa?

Yes. It can be paired with a facial, dermaplaning, or LED light therapy at our Algonquin, IL location. Your provider will tell you which pairings make sense for you and how to sequence them around your series.

Before You Book

Tell your provider about any medication you take and about any prescription skincare you use.

The solution used in this treatment contains TCA and hydrogen peroxide, so tell your provider about any reaction you have had to an exfoliating or acid based treatment before. Recent sun exposure, and any deep exfoliation or facial hair removal in the two weeks before your visit, are worth mentioning too, so your provider can plan around them.

The Catara Bio Rejuvenation Peel Compared with a Chemical Peel

Catara books three services at our Algonquin, IL location that a client could reasonably confuse with one another: chemical peels, the Skin Perfecting Facial, and the Catara Bio Rejuvenation Peel. Each is booked under its own name. What is specific to this one is the protocol: it is the PRX-T33 peel, it is needle-free, and the solution contains TCA (trichloroacetic acid) and hydrogen peroxide. Whether one of the three is a better match for what you want to change is a consultation question, and your provider will tell you which.

It is also different in kind from the Catara services that use needles, such as the injectables and the microneedling treatments, because the solution is applied to the surface of the skin and no needle is involved. It sits alongside other services rather than replacing them: it can be paired with a facial, dermaplaning, or LED light therapy at our Algonquin, IL location, and your provider will tell you which pairings make sense for you and how to sequence them around your series.
