PCCA R&D

PCCA’s Research and Development Department formulates and manufactures its own bases and cosmeceutical products. PCCA maintains our stringent Quality Control/Quality Assurance process on all of these products. In addition to quality testing of the manufactured bases and cosmeceuticals, the lab performs daily microbiological testing on the purified water used during production.

PCCA offers more than 50 high-quality proprietary bases, ranging from hormone replacement therapy to skin rejuvenation to veterinary applications. We carry the widest selection of bases and cosmeceuticals available! All are designed to save compounders valuable time in the compounding lab and provide patients with the quality they deserve.

Formulated and manufactured at PCCA, we have taken the quality and preparation of these bases and cosmeceuticals very seriously, investing in some of the best formulator minds in the profession, as well as state-of-the-art processing machines which are designed to produce superior emulsions.

In 2004, we traveled to Germany to purchase a 500-liter vessel which allows products to be made in a temperature- and pressure-controlled environment, and has the ability to circulate the emulsion through an in-line high shear homogenizer. The result is a shiny emulsion with very small micelle size. The “MP-500” is a tremendous asset to PCCA, allowing us to provide members with consistent products and also broadening our talented in-house Research and Development Team’s ability to create more innovative bases for our members!
