Features and Differentiators of Aqua Peel

1. Sophisticated 5-Step Protocol

This Aqua Peel treatment goes beyond a simple three-step process, encompassing a total of five steps, from gently softening sebum to calming the skin.

2. Use of Undiluted Original Solutions

AHA, BHA, and soothing ingredients are used in their original, undiluted concentrations to help improve skin.

This is possible when an environment is created where treatments can be received without waiting.

4. Concluding with Jaungo Herbal Soothing Pack

Utilizing Jaungo, an herbal soothing ingredient, can help alleviate heat and irritation that may occur after the procedure, and aid in skin barrier recovery.

Differentiated Management Points of Aqua Peel

1. Systematic 5-Step Aqua Peel Protocol

Most Aqua Peel procedures are typically performed in 3 steps.

We perform a total of 5 steps, from the X-peel phase to the soothing pack, providing care that goes beyond simple sebum removal to comprehensively improve skin condition.

Step 1: X-peel (Sebum Softening) — Uses a mild acidic solution to loosen the bonds between dead skin cells and sebum.

Step 2: AHA Exfoliation — Uses lactic acid and glycolic acid to remove surface dead skin cells and smooth skin texture.

Step 3: BHA Sebum Dissolution — Salicylic acid penetrates into the sebaceous glands to help remove sebum and blackheads.

Step 4: Hydration and Soothing — Hydrates the skin and stabilizes the barrier with ingredients like hyaluronic acid, panthenol, and aloe.

Step 5: Jaungo Modeling Pack — Calms heat and irritation with herbal soothing ingredients and aids in anti-inflammatory care.

2. Original Solutions Used Undiluted

To effectively manage sebum and blackheads, the concentration of the solution plays a crucial role.

We use AHA, BHA, and soothing moisturizers in their original, undiluted concentrations.

By applying undiluted solutions tailored to your skin type, you can expect effective sebum removal and exfoliation.

3. Ensuring Sufficient Working Time at Each Stage — Carefully, without Haste

For an effective Aqua Peel, each step must be applied meticulously with sufficient time.

We allow ample time for the solutions to work at each stage, helping sebum and dead skin cells to be gently separated and dissolved.

This means that the treatment design should consider the reactions of each skin layer, not just simply cleaning the surface.

Such meticulous care is possible in places where waiting times are minimized through a reservation system.

4. Finishing with a Hanbang (Traditional Korean Medicine) Jaungo Modeling Pack

Conventional Aqua Peel treatments may have insufficient post-procedure soothing, which can lead to increased skin sensitivity.

In the final step, we apply a modeling pack containing Jaungo, a traditional Korean herbal ingredient.

This soothing pack can help comfort the skin barrier and quickly stabilize irritated skin.

This soothing care program is designed to be suitable even for sensitive or acne-prone skin, without causing burden.

Introduction to Aqua Peel

Aqua Peel is a peeling procedure that gently removes dead skin cells, sebum, and blackheads without physical irritation to the skin, using moisturizing and mildly acidic solutions.

It's best understood as a comprehensive skin treatment that minimizes skin burden while simultaneously cleansing, moisturizing, and soothing.

At home, when dead skin cells build up or there's excess sebum on the nose, people often try to extract it themselves or use exfoliants.

However, strong physical irritation can potentially damage the skin barrier.

Aqua Peel reduces these concerns by using mildly acidic solutions sprayed from a device combined with suction power to gently refine the skin, making it a comfortable treatment method.

How Aqua Peel Works

1. Dual Management with Solution Spray and Vacuum Suction

A specific solution is gently sprayed onto the skin, while powerful vacuum suction simultaneously removes impurities such as dead skin cells, excess sebum, and blackheads effectively.

It is designed to cleanse the skin thoroughly while minimizing irritation, without the need for manual scrubbing.

2. Deep Cleansing by Regulating Internal Sebaceous Gland Pressure

The sebaceous glands and pores of our skin naturally maintain their own unique internal pressure.

Aqua Peel treatment utilizes the principle of negative pressure (vacuum suction) to gently draw out deeply embedded sebum from within the pores.

This process can lower the internal pressure within the pores, thereby reducing the potential for inflammation.

As a result, it can help improve the skin environment itself, making it less prone to acne.

3. Three Key Ingredients Acting Sequentially

AHA (Water-soluble): Gently dissolves the old dead skin cell layer accumulated on the skin's surface, contributing to a smoother skin texture.

Old dead skin cells can make the skin tone dull or cause makeup to lift.

BHA (Oil-soluble): Penetrates deep into the pores to dissolve sebum and gently remove blackheads and whiteheads.

Salicylic acid, in particular, can be effective in deep cleansing pores and keeping them clear.

Moisturizing & Soothing Ingredients: Hyaluronic acid, aloe, panthenol, etc., are ingredients that help provide sufficient moisture to the skin and alleviate external irritation.

These play an important role in reducing dryness or sensitivity of the skin after the treatment.

4. Systematic Step-by-Step Skin Care

The Aqua Peel treatment systematically proceeds in 5 steps: softening sebum, dissolving dead skin cells, cleansing sebum, followed by moisturizing and soothing processes.

This sequential process helps the skin respond stably and can contribute to maintaining the treatment's effects while minimizing unnecessary irritation.

5. Peeling that Considers Skin Barrier Protection

While most conventional peelings focus on physically removing the skin's surface,

Aqua Peel focuses on managing the skin by reducing irritation, protecting the skin barrier, and soothing it.

This is a peeling treatment that goes beyond simply cleansing the skin, focusing on maintaining healthy skin through moisturizing and soothing.

Skin that experiences increased oil secretion and excessive shine, especially during summer.

Oily and combination skin with enlarged pores or active sebum secretion.

4. Skin prone to frequent comedones before acne breakouts

Skin that frequently develops whiteheads or blackheads, at a stage before inflammation occurs

When considering early-stage comedone management before skin troubles worsen

When skin reacts sensitively to minor stimuli, making strong laser treatments hesitant

Those who wish to manage their skin comfortably without irritation

When skin tone feels dull or the skin surface is uneven

Recommended Aqua Peel Treatment Cycle

1. Oily skin, skin with high sebum production, or skin with comedonal acne

Suggested frequency: Approximately every 2 weeks

Reason: For skin with active sebum secretion and frequent comedone formation, consistently reducing the burden on the sebaceous glands can be beneficial.

Purpose: To balance sebum through initial management and prevent the worsening of acne.

2. Skin with many blackheads, whiteheads, and frequently clogged pores

Suggested frequency: Every 2-3 weeks

Reason: It is important to remove sebum at regular intervals before it accumulates and hardens within the pores.

Purpose: To thoroughly clear sebum from pores, helping them gradually contract.

3. Sensitive or dry skin (focusing on hydration and soothing rather than exfoliation)

Suggested frequency: Every 3-4 weeks

Reason: For those with a weak skin barrier, managing primarily with hydration and soothing while minimizing irritation can be beneficial for skin health.

Purpose: To protect the skin barrier and help maintain a moist and healthy skin texture.

4. Normal skin and those who wish to improve skin texture and tone

Suggested frequency: Every 4 weeks

Reason: Even without specific skin problems, it can help to smoothly refine overall skin texture and maintain a healthy glow.

Purpose: To continue a healthy skin care routine and consistently maintain the skin improvement effects from treatments.

5. Skin preparation before other treatments (skin boosters, laser treatments, etc.)

Suggested timing: 3-5 days before receiving treatment

Reason: When unnecessary dead skin cells and sebum are cleared, the absorption rate of subsequent treatment ingredients into the skin increases, allowing for better treatment responses.

Purpose: To increase the absorption rate of active ingredients, thereby contributing to higher satisfaction with the treatment.
