FAQS

Is PCA Skin Body Therapy the best body lotion for keratosis pilaris? +

PCA Skin Body Therapy is widely regarded as one of the most effective body treatments for keratosis pilaris (KP). The 12% lactic acid gently exfoliates the build-up of keratin that causes those rough, bumpy patches, whilst the hydrating formula soothes and softens the skin. Many users report significant improvement in their KP after 4–6 weeks of consistent use, with some seeing near-complete clearance after several months.

How often should I use PCA Skin Body Therapy? +

For best results, apply Body Therapy daily after bathing or showering. It can be used both morning and evening for superior moisture retention and smoothing benefits. Applying to slightly damp skin helps lock in extra hydration. Always follow with a broad spectrum SPF on exposed areas during the day, as the lactic acid can increase sun sensitivity.

Will this body cream feel greasy or sticky on my skin? +

No. PCA Skin Body Therapy has a velvety, lightweight texture that absorbs quickly and completely into the skin. Despite being deeply hydrating, it leaves no greasy or sticky residue. The formula is designed to feel luxurious and comfortable so you can get dressed straight after application without any transfer onto clothing.

Can I use this as a daily body moisturiser for dry skin? +

Absolutely. PCA Skin Body Therapy is formulated for daily use and works beautifully as a therapeutic daily moisturiser. The combination of 12% lactic acid, shea butter, glycerin, and sodium hyaluronate provides both immediate and long-lasting hydration. Advanced ingredients help lock in moisture for up to 10 hours, making it ideal for chronically dry or dehydrated body skin.

Does PCA Skin Body Therapy help with dark spots and uneven skin tone on the body? +

Yes. The 12% lactic acid in this formula works as a gentle exfoliant that promotes cell turnover, which helps to fade dark spots and even out skin tone over time. Phytic acid and gluconolactone provide additional brightening and tone-correcting benefits. With regular use, many users notice a more radiant, even complexion across the body.

What skin types is PCA Skin Body Therapy suitable for? +

Body Therapy is suitable for all skin types including dry, combination, and normal skin. It is particularly beneficial for those with rough, bumpy, or uneven-textured skin. If you have very sensitive skin, it's worth patch testing first, as the 12% lactic acid is an active exfoliating ingredient. If you experience any irritation, reduce usage to every other day until your skin adjusts.

Do I need to wear sunscreen when using this body lotion? +

Yes. Because PCA Skin Body Therapy contains 12% lactic acid (an alpha hydroxy acid), it can increase your skin's sensitivity to the sun. PCA Skin recommends following with a broad spectrum SPF product on all exposed skin in the morning. This is essential to protect your skin from UV damage and to get the best results from the product.

How long does a tube of PCA Skin Body Therapy last? +

The 198g tube typically lasts 4–8 weeks depending on how liberally you apply it and whether you use it once or twice daily. Applying to the full body twice daily will use the product more quickly, whilst targeting specific areas such as upper arms or thighs will extend the tube's lifespan.

Can I use PCA Skin Body Therapy during pregnancy or breastfeeding? +

Lactic acid is generally considered one of the safer AHAs for use during pregnancy. However, PCA Skin Body Therapy contains 12% lactic acid which is applied over a large surface area of the body. Due to the higher concentration and extensive application area, we recommend consulting your healthcare provider, midwife, or dermatologist before using this product during pregnancy or breastfeeding to ensure it is appropriate for your individual circumstances.
