What Is Aqua Peel?
Aqua Peel (also known as hydrodermabrasion or water peeling) is a multi-step facial treatment that combines gentle exfoliation, vacuum-based extraction, and serum infusion. It effectively removes dead skin cells, excess sebum, and blackheads while delivering nourishing serums directly into the skin.
The standard Aqua Peel treatment includes:
- Cleansing & AHA exfoliation – Removes dead skin and smooths texture
- BHA extraction – Dissolves sebum and clears clogged pores
- Hydration infusion – Delivers moisturizing and soothing ingredients
- Optional calming or brightening mask
It’s suitable for treating:
- Blackheads and whiteheads
- Oily and acne-prone skin
- Dullness and rough texture
- Enlarged pores and mild pigmentation
- Dehydrated or sensitive skin
Who Is a Good Candidate?
Aqua Peel is safe and effective for:
- All skin types, including sensitive or acne-prone skin
- Individuals looking for gentle, regular skin maintenance
- Patients with clogged pores, uneven texture, or dry patches
- Those preparing for more intensive treatments (like lasers or microneedling)
- Anyone wanting a fresh, hydrated glow without downtime
It’s often chosen before events or as part of a monthly skincare routine.
How Is the Procedure Performed?
A typical Aqua Peel session includes:
- Initial cleansing of the skin
- Use of a multi-function device with spiral vacuum suction
- Sequential application of AHA, BHA, and hydrating serums
- Gentle exfoliation and extraction of impurities
- Finishing step with a soothing or brightening ampoule and mask
The full treatment takes 30 to 45 minutes, and there is no pain or recovery time required.
Is Aqua Peel Painful?
Not at all. Most patients describe the sensation as cool and refreshing—like a gentle suction massage. No needles, heat, or discomfort are involved.
Why Choose Aqua Peel Over Manual Facials or Scrubs?
- More effective than manual extraction for clearing blackheads
- No risk of scarring or redness like with aggressive extractions
- Infuses beneficial ingredients while cleansing
- Boosts hydration and glow instantly
- Safe for repeated use—even weekly
It’s a go-to treatment in Korean skincare clinics for clear, balanced, and glowing skin.
Can It Be Combined With Other Treatments?
Yes! Aqua Peel is commonly combined with:
- Laser toning or IPL for pigment correction
- Skin boosters or exosomes for post-peel hydration
- Microneedling or RF treatments to prep the skin
- LED light therapy for acne or redness
- Custom ampoules tailored to your skin type
It enhances the absorption and effectiveness of any follow-up skincare.
Are There Any Side Effects?
Aqua Peel is extremely gentle and low-risk. Possible temporary effects include:
- Mild redness (resolves within an hour)
- Slight dryness or tightness (can be relieved with moisturizer)
No scabbing, peeling, or irritation occurs, making it suitable for even the most delicate skin.
When Will I See Results and How Long Do They Last?
- Immediate glow and smoothness after a single session
- Clearer pores and balanced oil production over 3–5 sessions
- Results last 1–2 weeks depending on lifestyle and skin type
- Monthly sessions are recommended for long-term clarity and hydration
Many patients use Aqua Peel as part of a regular skin health maintenance plan.
