Q&A Time: A Doctor Answers Questions About Aqua Peel in Yangcheon-gu

Yangcheon Aqua Peel

Hello.

I am Kim Jin-hyeon, Chief Director of the Mok-dong branch of UNNI Clinic.

Recently, due to various factors such as fine dust, frequent makeup, and irregular lifestyle habits, it seems that more and more people are experiencing clogged pores and thickened dead skin cells, leading to skin troubles.

One procedure that can help in situations like this is “Aqua Peel.”

Aqua Peel is a procedure that helps expel waste from within the pores and smooth out dead skin cells, helping to make the skin clearer and softer.

Its appeal is that it can be performed more gently than conventional chemical peels, which tend to be irritating.

However, for those who are not familiar with Aqua Peel, the word “peel” may bring up various concerns.

Today, I have prepared a time to personally answer the most frequently asked questions about Aqua Peel.

If you are curious about Aqua Peel, please take just 2 minutes to read on.

Can frequent Aqua Peel treatments make the skin thinner?

Many people hear the word “peel” and worry that removing dead skin cells might make the skin thinner.

Aqua Peel also partially uses the principle of exfoliation.

However, compared with general chemical peels, Aqua Peel is a relatively gentle procedure that combines a low-irritation solution with negative-pressure suction to smooth only the outer dead skin layer.

The reason people feel that their skin becomes thinner after a chemical peel is that the peeling agent penetrates into the dermis and causes damage.

The peeling solution used in Aqua Peel is usually a low concentration of AHA and BHA,

and because it removes sebum and waste from the pores with physical vacuum suction in a low-irritation way, there is no need to worry too much about your skin becoming thinner.

However, it should not be overused.

If you receive the procedure too frequently without considering your skin type, even a low-irritation peel can thin the epidermis and make the skin thinner and more sensitive, so caution is needed.

In general, it is recommended to have it once every 2 to 4 weeks, but it is best to first have your skin type diagnosed and then consult with medical staff to determine the appropriate interval based on that diagnosis. This is the proper way to help prevent damage to the skin barrier.

My skin feels oilier after Aqua Peel!

Sometimes, after undergoing the procedure a few times, people say their skin feels oilier than usual.

It is clearly a procedure that removes sebum, so why would it make the skin feel oilier?

In fact, right after the procedure, the sebaceous glands may be temporarily stimulated, or you may feel dryness, which can lead to excessive sebum secretion.

As Aqua Peel removes sebum and waste and slightly opens the pores, the skin may try to secrete a bit more oil than usual in order to protect itself.

However, this phenomenon usually subsides naturally within a few days after the procedure.

And to help prevent this symptom, sufficient hydration and soothing care should be provided.

Otherwise, the skin may instinctively secrete more oil as a self-defense response.

In conclusion, even if you feel that sebum production has increased slightly after one or two sessions, combining consistent Aqua Peel treatments with proper at-home care can gradually help balance oil and moisture over the long term and assist in controlling sebum production.

If I get Aqua Peel regularly, will it also remove blackheads?

Blackheads refer to sebum that has oxidized inside the pores and turned dark after coming into contact with air.

During an Aqua Peel treatment, the pores are vacuum-suctioned to efficiently remove waste and sebum, so you can also expect some improvement in blackheads.

However, blackheads can always reappear if sebum continues to be excessively secreted or if inadequate cleansing accumulates.

That is why ongoing pore care through regular Aqua Peel treatments and thorough cleansing is necessary to slow down recurrence.

How many sessions of Aqua Peel does it take before you can notice a difference?

Even after just one treatment, Aqua Peel can help tidy up sebum and dead skin cells within the pores, giving you the feeling that your skin is cooler and smoother.

Usually, after one session, the pores are cleaned on the same day, and you may notice changes such as makeup applying more smoothly or the skin texture improving more softly.

The duration of the effect varies from person to person, and for those whose skin condition tends to deteriorate easily, waste can build up again within just 1 to 2 weeks.

So if you want thorough pore care and continued skin improvement, we recommend receiving regular treatments.

When scheduling regular treatments, the interval should be set with consideration for the cycle of new dead skin cell formation and sebum buildup, and if treatments are too frequent, the skin may become more sensitive, so caution is needed.

If you steadily accumulate treatment sessions, it will help you maintain clean pore walls and a balanced skin condition over the long term.

Aqua Peel is a procedure that can help with sebum and waste removal inside the pores, while also helping with sebum control and dead skin cell care.

It is relatively 부담less and has the 특징 of allowing you to return to daily life immediately after the procedure,

but you should keep in mind that performing it too frequently or with excessive intensity can further irritate sensitive skin.

So I would like to emphasize that the key is to visit a dermatology clinic that can provide personalized diagnosis and treatment based on your skin’s characteristics.
