The Trifecta: Combining treatments for better results

October 23rd, 2026 | By:  Erin Olah, MD

The trifecta

Patients often ask us whether they can have more than one skin treatment during the same appointment. The answer depends on the treatments, your skin, and what you’re trying to address. But in many cases, thoughtfully combining treatments allows us to target different layers and concerns at the same time. 


That’s the idea behind one of our favorite combinations at Timeless Skin Solutions - The Trifecta. 


Rather than relying on one treatment to do everything, the Trifecta combines three complementary procedures in one appointment. Depending on your skin, your provider may recommend a combination designed to address discoloration, improve texture, exfoliate dull surface skin or support collagen production. 


And now, there are three ways to customize it. 


Three trifecta treatment combinations

DIAMONDGLOW + IPL + CHEMICAL PEEL

May help address brown spots, sun damage, uneven tone, and dull skin. 


This combination brings together exfoliation and resurfacing with IPL to address visible pigmentation and redness. 


DiamondGlow exfoliates the surface of the skin while extracting debris and infusing a condition-specific serum. IPL uses intense pulsed light to target concerns such as brown spots, sun damage, and redness. A customized Chemical Peel provides additional exfoliation to help improve overall tone and texture. 


For patients whose biggest concern is the visible evidence of sun exposure or uneven pigmentation, this combination allows us to approach the skin in several different ways during one treatment plan. 


DIAMONDGLOW + MICRONEEDLING + CHEMICAL PEEL 

May help address uneven texture, enlarged pores, acne scars, fine lines and dullness. 


When texture is the primary concern, your provider may recommend replacing IPL with Microneedling. 


Microneedling creates controlled microchannels in the skin that stimulate its natural collagen and elastin response. It can be particularly helpful for improving the appearance of enlarged pores, acne scars, fine lines, and uneven texture. 


Paired with DiamondGlow and a Chemical Peel, the combination addresses both the skin’s surface and the factors contributing to its texture, helping create smoother, brighter-looking skin. 


MICRONEEDLING + IPL + CHEMICAL PEEL 

May help address a combination of pigmentation and texture concerns. 


Sometimes the concern isn’t just brown spots or texture. It’s both. 


The newest Trifecta combination brings together Microneedling, IPL, and a Chemical Peel for patients who may benefit from addressing discoloration and uneven texture within the same overall treatment. 


IPL targets visible pigmentation and redness, while Microneedling supports collagen production and addresses concerns such as pores, fine lines, acne scars and uneven texture. A Chemical Peel rounds out the combination with customized exfoliation to refresh the skin’s surface. 


For the right patient, it provides a more comprehensive approach when several different skin concerns are contributing to the overall appearance of the skin. 


What each treatment brings to the trifecta 

  1. DiamondGlow®
    DiamondGlow combines exfoliation, extraction, and the infusion of condition-specific serums in one treatment. It removes dull surface skin and debris while delivering a serum selected for your skin’s needs.

  2. IPL® Photofacial
    IPL uses pulses of light to target pigmentation and redness below the skin’s surface. It is commonly used to improve the appearance of sun damage, brown spots, redness, and uneven skin tone. 

  3. Microneedling
    Also known as collagen induction therapy, Microneedling stimulates the skin’s natural collagen and elastin production. It can help improve fine lines, enlarged pores, acne scars, and uneven skin texture. 

  4. Chemical Peel
    Chemical Peels use customized exfoliating solutions to remove damaged surface cells and encourage healthier-looking skin. Because peels can vary in strength and formulation, your provider can select one based on your skin, your concerns and the other treatments included in your Trifecta. 


Which trifecta is right for you? 

There isn’t one combination that is right for everyone. 


Your skin may need more help with pigmentation. Texture may be your biggest concern. Or you may have several things you would like to address at once. 


That is why your Trifecta starts with your skin—not a predetermined package. 


A Timeless medical provider will evaluate your skin, talk with you about what you’re noticing and recommend the combination that makes sense for your goals. Your provider will also determine whether combining procedures in the same appointment is appropriate for your skin and discuss what to expect before and after treatment. 


The goal isn’t to do more simply for the sake of doing more. It’s to choose treatments that complement one another and create a skincare plan that makes sense for you. 


Schedule an appointment with Timeless Skin Solutions to talk with one of our medical providers about the right combination for your skin.
