What Makes Our Aquapeel Different?

1. Aquapeel Treatment Segmented into 5 Steps

Most Aquapeel treatments are often simplified to 3 steps.

However, our treatment consists of a total of 5 steps, from X-peel to the soothing pack, aiming for a peeling process that goes beyond simple sebum removal to delicately manage overall skin condition.

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

Step 2: AHA Exfoliation – Gently removes dead skin cells from the skin surface and refines skin texture using lactic acid and glycolic acid.

Step 3: BHA Sebum Dissolution – Salicylic acid works deep within the sebaceous glands to help manage sebum and blackheads.

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

Step 5: Jaungo Modeling Pack – Uses a traditional Korean herbal soothing pack to alleviate heat and irritation, and can contribute to managing inflammatory responses.

2. Ingredients Used Undiluted, in Their Original Form

The concentration of the solution is a crucial factor in managing sebum and blackheads.

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

By applying ingredients at their original concentrations, considering your skin type, you can expect better results for sebum and dead skin cell management.

3. Ensuring Ample Action Time for Each Step

To enhance the effectiveness of Aquapeel, it is crucial to proceed with each step slowly and precisely.

We ensure sufficient solution action time at each step, allowing sebum and dead skin cells to be gently separated and dissolved.

It's not just a surface-cleansing treatment; delicate application, considering the reactions of each skin layer, is key.

This meticulous process is made possible in a relaxed operating environment.

4. Finishing with a Traditional Korean Medicine-Based Jaungo Modeling Pack

With typical Aquapeel treatments, the post-procedure soothing process can be insufficient, sometimes leading to temporary skin sensitivity.

At the final stage of our treatment, we apply Jaungo, a traditional Korean herbal soothing ingredient, in the form of a modeling pack to the skin,

which strengthens the skin barrier and comforts skin that may have been irritated by the procedure.

This soothing treatment is designed to be relatively comfortable even for those with sensitive or acne-prone skin.

What is Aquapeel?

Aquapeel is a peeling treatment that manages skin waste such as dead skin cells, sebum, and blackheads, using moisturizing solutions and mild acidic solutions without causing physical scrubbing or excessive irritation to the skin.

It's best understood as a comprehensive treatment that doesn't put significant stress on the skin, offering cleansing, moisturizing, and soothing care simultaneously.

When you typically have a lot of dead skin cells or noticeable sebum around your nose, you might try to extract them yourself at home or use exfoliating products.

However, excessive physical stimulation can potentially damage the skin barrier.

Aquapeel is a low-stress treatment that alleviates these concerns by using a mild acidic solution sprayed from a machine along with suction to gently refine the skin.

Principles of Aquapeel

1. Solution spray and vacuum suction work together.

A special solution is gently sprayed onto the skin, and at the same time, vacuum suction effectively removes waste products such as dead skin cells, sebum, and blackheads.

This method allows for clean removal of waste products without significant skin irritation, even without manual rubbing.

2. Manages deep sebum by utilizing the pressure difference in sebaceous glands.

Sebaceous glands and the inside of pores have their own internal pressure.

Aqua peel uses negative pressure, or vacuum suction, to extract sebum from deep within the pores.

As the internal pressure of the pores decreases, the likelihood of inflammation may also be reduced.

This can help improve the skin environment prone to acne.

3. Three main ingredients work in stages.

AHA (water-soluble) gently dissolves old dead skin cells on the skin's surface, helping to refine skin texture.

Excessive buildup of dead skin cells can make skin tone appear dull or reduce makeup adherence.

BHA (oil-soluble) is an ingredient that dissolves sebum inside pores, gently managing blackheads and whiteheads.

Salicylic acid can penetrate deep into the pores, helping to purify them.

Moisturizing and soothing ingredients such as hyaluronic acid, aloe, and panthenol supply essential moisture to the skin and comfort irritated skin.

These ingredients play a crucial role in preventing the skin from becoming dry or sensitive after treatment.

4. A step-by-step process that sequentially refines the skin.

This treatment consists of a total of five steps: softening sebum, dissolving dead skin cells, removing sebum, and then providing moisturizing and soothing.

This sequential process can stably induce skin response, reduce irritation, and help maintain treatment effects.

5. Peeling management focused on skin barrier recovery.

While typical peeling treatments focus on exfoliating the skin's surface,

Aqua peel is a soothing-focused treatment that minimizes skin irritation while helping to restore the skin barrier.

Therefore, this peel cleanses and refines the skin while simultaneously providing moisturizing and soothing care.

When to Consider Aqua Peel Treatment

1. Skin concerned with sebum, blackheads, and whiteheads

Recommended for individuals with visibly clogged pores in the nose, chin, and forehead areas.

Those who wish to manage sebum without extraction procedures may consider this.

2. Individuals whose makeup flakes or whose skin texture feels rough

This can help skin conditions where dead skin cells easily flake off or foundation does not adhere evenly.

Suitable for those who desire smoother skin texture and better makeup adherence.

3. Oily skin or excessive oiliness in the T-zone area

There are individuals who experience increased oiliness or severe skin shine, especially during summer.

This can be useful for oily and combination skin types where pores easily enlarge or sebum secretion is active.

4. Comedonal skin in the pre-acne stage

Skin condition where whiteheads or blackheads frequently appear, before progressing to inflammatory breakouts.

For those who want to manage early comedones and soothe the skin before the breakout worsens into full-blown troubles.

5. Individuals with thin and sensitive skin who feel burdened by laser procedures.

For those whose skin reacts easily to minor stimuli, making lasers or high-output treatments unsuitable.

For those who want gentle yet stable management for their skin.

6. When pre-treatment care is deemed necessary before laser procedures or skin booster injections.

When aiming to improve the skin's absorption rate of subsequent treatment ingredients by tidying up old dead skin cells and excessive sebum.

It can also be used as a preparatory step to enhance the effectiveness of existing treatments.

7. For those who want to improve their overall skin condition through a regular skincare routine.

Recommended for individuals who experience increased dead skin cells due to seasonal changes or wish to regularly manage their skin texture and tone.

It can also be helpful when skin tone is uneven or skin texture feels rough.

Recommended Aqua Peel Treatment Frequency

1. Oily skin with excessive sebum and frequent comedonal acne.

The recommended frequency is every 2 weeks.

For skin with active sebum secretion and a tendency to develop comedones like whiteheads or blackheads, regular management can be important to reduce the burden on the sebaceous glands.

It helps to intensively manage from the early stages to balance sebum and prevent acne from worsening.

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

The recommended frequency is every 2 to 3 weeks.

Consistently removing sebum before it accumulates in pores and leads to breakouts is key.

By effectively removing sebum from within the pores, you can expect gradually cleaner and tightened pores.

3. Sensitive or dry skin requiring exfoliation along with soothing care.

The recommended frequency is every 3 to 4 weeks.

For those with a weak skin barrier, it's important to reduce irritation while enhancing moisturizing and soothing effects.

It helps protect the skin barrier and maintain a hydrated skin texture.

4. Normal skin for overall improvement of skin texture and tone.

The recommended frequency is every 4 weeks.

It is suitable for those who desire smooth skin texture and an even tone, even if they don't have prominent skin issues.

The goal is to maintain the positive effects of the treatment through consistent skincare routine management.

5. Pre-preparation for other treatments such as skin boosters or lasers.

The recommended timing is 3 to 5 days before the main treatment.

By tidying up dead skin cells and sebum beforehand, the absorption rate of active ingredients from subsequent treatments can be increased, and treatment response can be improved.

The purpose is to enhance the absorption rate of treatment ingredients to better achieve the overall treatment effects.
