[veevee]

Hi,
Can anyone provide the address for Cosmopolitan Clinic ? Is there a website also ? What's the url ? Thanks a lot !

[butterfly_kiss]

i have attached the weblink for cosmopolitan clinic below..
http://www.cosmopolitanclinic.com/

i did my PCA peel for my face at GJ medical clinic at jurong point.. he charges $80 per peel and the 6th peel is free.. he said 6 peel is enough to have clear skin and thereafter, do a maintenance every two or three months.. up to your own preference..

he told me to treat this like my facial.. it works for me thus far.. i love the smoothness of my face..

Veevee,

better call to check up the pricing before you go. i happen to have a print out o his old pricing - the one with 20% discount and it seems their pricing really jumped!

the prof chemical peel for body (back, front or arms) used to be $120 with the 20% opening special, $150 usual. it has now jumped to $250, $200 and $250 respectively.... BIG BIG difference....

You mean their usual price on the website is no longer valid?

[snowstar]

their usual price is on the website. but the "usual" price seems to have changed for some items.

the ppx hair removal unchanged. the pricing for chemical peel went up. others never compare.

butterfly_kiss & bamboo,

went to the pca website and wondering which peel are you girls raving about? after reading your raves, i'm sooo tempted!

PCA Professional™ Enhanced Jessner's Treatments
These innovative and proven light-to-medium depth peel formulas effectively exfoliate with blends of lactic, citric and salicylic acids and resorcinol, while bleaching and inhibiting pigment production with kojic acid and hydroquinone (where indicated). These peels help repair and reduce breakouts, control oil, soften lines and provide a more even, smoother skin texture.

or

PCA Professional™ TCA Peels
Trichloroacetic acid (TCA) peels are often thought of as very aggressive and producing substantial discomfort. PCA Professional™ TCA peels are very different from the standard. Our TCA solutions are blends formulated with many ingredients including lactic acid, ascorbic acid (vitamin C), plumping phytohormones and kojic and azelaic acids to produce dramatic results without the discomfort and downtime associated with traditional TCA peels

I noticed from the States website that they cannot deliver PCA products to Singapore.

Anyone knows whether we can continue using when pregnant.

Hello Bamboo, Dont anyhow use treatment..ANY treatment when you are pregnant. It could be harmful for your foetus! Unless the doctor says is okay.

Hi Hi..I did my facial peel there. I think the pricing for $120 is for face. For the body parts, it is more because it's such a HUGE area. Check with other places, I think they cost more. My friend told me she went to a skin clinic in Orchard. Peel on the back is about $5-600. Gosh! EX rite!

the peel is done by a doctor at a clinic.. it is chemical peel..

i'm allergic to glycolic acids.. if i am not wrong peel with PCA is using lactic & citric acid which is already in our milk and fruits intake.. so not as harsh as glycolic acid..

previously when i was using another brand with mainly AHA -glycolic acids, my skin turned raw.. itchy.. and ugly.. bleargh..

PCA peel works wonderfully for me.. maybe you can give this a try.. since this is a milder form of chem peel but works just as wonderfully if not better..

thought i was allergic to AHA too until i found out that there are many different types of AHA and i am only allergic to glycolic acid.. thank goodnees..

...LActic acid is milk acid, already present in our bodies. Glycolic acid is from Fruits. It's harsher. With prolonged use of glycolic acid, you'll get pigmentation easily when exposed to sun. Especially with aging...Glycolic will make it worse! Be careful. Too harsh.

i'm not sure if other places cost more or less. i am just saying that they raised their prices from before. at first, i thought the difference was the 20% opening promo, then i reaslied that the "usual" price has been raised. regretting.......

You can go to E-Medical to look for Dr John to buy the products. I dont think you need to pay for products consultation. His number is 92255503.

How old are you, bookworm? If you are still young, then prevention is good. I am not young not old, so I am very kiasu. I am a patient of Dr John and also at Cosmopolitan Clinic. I have always religiously use PCA vitamin C. I use on lines, marks - fantastic results for me! As for eye cream..hehe...I am quite a lazyworm. I have it too, but I hardly touch it. AIya, make sure whatever you buy, you must use it as what the doc tells you. Then you can see results. Talking about that, I beta start using NOW!!

hey bambi, thanks for yr ans. I'm in my early 20s but i got alot of freckles and very bad circles around my eyes. I just went to get the eye cream, praying for miracles. The vitamin c cream costs $120 and so I havn't buy yet! I'm debating between the vitamin c cream and the synergy serum bcos both promise to make yr skin 'glow'. I also currently having ppx treatment at cosmopolitan clinic. I really envy ple with flawless skin
