PRX is a professional biorevitalization treatment that stimulates collagen and elastin production deep in the dermis — without surface peeling, without needles, and without downtime. Real skin renewal from the inside out, with results you can see immediately and that continue building over weeks.
PRX is a patented professional biorevitalization formula developed in Italy that delivers trichloroacetic acid (TCA) into the skin in a way that produces collagen and elastin stimulation without causing surface damage. Traditional TCA peels damage the epidermis to force regeneration. PRX bypasses that damage — reaching the dermis directly while hydrogen peroxide neutralizes the surface reaction, protecting the outer skin layer entirely.
The result is a treatment that achieves what usually requires either a peel with days of downtime or a series of needle-based injections — but with neither. Immediate luminosity from the first session, with structural collagen improvements that build progressively over the weeks following treatment.
At Desert Sands, PRX is one of our most versatile skin renewal tools — used standalone as a maintenance treatment, paired with AquaGold for deeper immediate results, or layered into a comprehensive skincare program for lasting skin quality improvements.
PRX works at the dermal level, producing a broad range of improvements to skin quality, tone, and structure — without touching the surface.
PRX triggers a wound-healing response in the dermis without actually wounding the surface — stimulating fibroblasts to produce new collagen and elastin that firms and tightens the skin progressively over weeks following treatment.
The collagen and elastin stimulation produced by PRX visibly tightens loose or crepey skin — on the face, neck, décolletage, and hands — with improvements building across a series of treatments.
Kojic acid in the PRX formula inhibits melanin production, progressively brightening dull, uneven, or hyperpigmented skin while the biorevitalization process restores overall luminosity and clarity.
As new collagen fills the dermis and skin hydration improves, fine surface lines soften and skin texture becomes measurably smoother and more refined — results that deepen with each session in a series.
The collagen-stimulating mechanism of PRX makes it effective for improving the appearance of stretch marks and superficial scarring — particularly useful on the abdomen, thighs, and décolletage.
Unlike treatments whose results take weeks to appear, PRX produces visible luminosity and skin quality improvement immediately after the first session — making it a popular pre-event treatment as well as a maintenance staple.
Traditional chemical peels use acid to damage the outer epidermis — forcing the skin to regenerate and producing peeling, redness, and several days of downtime in the process. PRX works differently. Its patented formula combines trichloroacetic acid with hydrogen peroxide in a ratio that allows TCA to penetrate directly to the dermis, where it stimulates fibroblasts to produce new collagen and elastin.
The hydrogen peroxide in the formula creates an oxidative neutralization reaction at the epidermal level — protecting the surface layer from the acid's effects while allowing the deeper stimulation to occur. The skin's outer layer remains intact, which is why there is no peeling, no significant redness, and no recovery period.
Kojic acid — the third component — simultaneously inhibits tyrosinase activity in melanocytes, reducing melanin production and progressively brightening pigmentation and uneven tone over a series of treatments.
Penetrates to the dermis and triggers fibroblast activity — stimulating collagen and elastin production without surface ablation.
Neutralizes the acid reaction at the epidermis, protecting the surface and eliminating peeling and downtime.
Inhibits melanin production, brightening pigmentation and uneven tone over the course of treatment.
The PRX solution is applied and massaged into the skin in multiple passes. There is no occlusion, no waiting period, and no neutralization required. The treatment ends with a hydrating finish mask.
Most patients feel mild warmth or tingling during application. There is no significant discomfort and no topical anesthetic required. The experience is typically relaxing.
The skin may appear slightly flushed for a few hours. There is no peeling, no visible recovery period, and no restrictions on normal activity. Mineral sunscreen is applied before you leave.
Skin looks brighter and more luminous immediately after the first session. Collagen and elastin improvements develop progressively over three to four weeks. A series of three to five sessions spaced one to two weeks apart produces the deepest structural results.
PRX works beneath the surface — stimulating collagen and elastin deep in the dermis. AquaGold works at the surface — microinfusing hyaluronic acid, vitamins, and peptides directly into the skin's top layer. The two treatments target different depths and different mechanisms, which is precisely why they work so well together.
When performed in the same session or on sequential visits, PRX and AquaGold produce compounded results: deeper structural improvement from PRX's collagen stimulation, combined with immediate hydration and nutrient delivery from AquaGold's microinfusion. Patients consistently describe this combination as producing the most complete skin renewal experience available at Desert Sands.
