Hello.

I’m Kim Jin-hyeon, chief director of the Mok-dong branch of You&I Clinic.

“Dead skin keeps building up on my face,

and I’m worried because blackheads seem really noticeable.”

“I scrub diligently,

but it feels like my skin is getting oilier instead!”

If you feel stressed by clogged pores, excess sebum, rough skin texture, and similar concerns, Aqua Peel may help.

Aqua Peel is a combined exfoliation and sebum-removal procedure that combines water, vacuum suction, and a low-irritation peeling solution.

It is characterized by the ability to perform relatively simple yet deep pore cleansing.

That is why it has spread by word of mouth and become known to many people.

However, it seems that there are still not many people who clearly understand in what situations it is helpful, so I prepared this post myself.

Today, let’s take a look at the procedure principle and features of Aqua Peel, as well as specific use cases!

What is Aqua Peel?

Aqua Peel is a procedure based on the principle of gently removing impurities and old dead skin cells from inside pores using water pressure + vacuum suction + a low-irritation peeling solution.

It is also called a water-glow peel.

Rather than simple water cleansing, it works through a combination of chemical peeling and mechanical suction, which helps manage the skin efficiently.

Let’s look at the procedure principle in more detail.

Moisture and peeling solution are sprayed onto the skin surface to gently soften the pores and dead skin cells.

At the same time, vacuum negative pressure is used to remove dissolved sebum, blackheads, dead skin debris, and more.

Because physical and chemical exfoliation happen at the same time, it is possible to focus treatment on the needed areas, which helps reduce skin damage.

Compared with the high-concentration chemical peels that were often used in the past, it tends to be less irritating, so post-procedure redness and stinging are usually mild.

It can also help protect the skin surface during vacuum suction, and the solution ingredients may also provide some moisture and nourishment.

However, it is best to avoid irritating self-peels and scrubs before and after the procedure, and on the day of treatment, it is recommended to refrain from excessive exercise or sauna use.

Also, afterward, thorough moisturizing and sun protection are necessary to help stabilize the stratum corneum and keep the skin cleaner and more hydrated for longer.

Why get Aqua Peel?

In conclusion, Aqua Peel is a procedure that helps solve pore blockage and dead skin problems at the same time while creating a clearer skin texture.

Oily skin with large pores and a lot of sebum is more likely to develop blackheads and whiteheads.

If impurities inside the pores are efficiently removed with Aqua Peel, the skin can become clearer, and makeup can sit better as well.

People with recurring breakouts can also benefit: if inflammatory acne is not severe, Aqua Peel can be combined to help cleanse the pores and prevent worsening.

People with dry or combination skin can also use Aqua Peel.

Even for these skin types, if sebum and old dead skin cells build up at the same time, breakouts can be triggered.

In such cases, high-concentration peels may be burdensome, so Aqua Peel, which can provide low irritation and hydration at the same time, allows gentle care while protecting the skin barrier.

Of course, Aqua Peel alone cannot improve deep scars or wrinkles, but after sebum and dead skin are removed, tissue regeneration becomes more active, which can help to some extent with fine wrinkles and pore improvement.

If other procedures such as lasers or skin boosters are performed afterward, doing them after Aqua Peel has cleaned the pores can make it easier for active ingredients to penetrate and may create synergy.

Procedures that go well with it

So, what procedures can create synergy?

  1. Laser toning

If pigmentation or mild redness is present, performing laser toning after Aqua Peel removes sebum from inside the pores can help the laser beam act more evenly and deeply in the skin.

When toning is done after Aqua Peel has thinned the dead skin layer, pigment improvement can be achieved more efficiently, which is why it is often used as a strategy to address multiple concerns at once.

  1. Skin booster

If the skin is dry and lacks elasticity, injecting a skin booster such as Rejuran after Aqua Peel may allow nutrients and moisture to be absorbed more efficiently once the dead skin debris has been removed.

As a result, hydration and elasticity can improve further, and it may also help compensate for the temporary dryness that can occur after Aqua Peel.

  1. Localized acne extraction

If it is not moderate inflammatory acne, Aqua Peel and acne extraction can be performed together to aim for both pore cleansing and the removal of concentrated comedones.

However, if inflammation is severe, the negative-pressure process of Aqua Peel may cause irritation, so it is recommended to first stabilize the skin with antibiotics or acne medication and then adjust the treatment schedule.

Aqua Peel can be seen as a relatively low-burden and efficient procedure for people who are concerned about mild sebum and dead skin issues.

Because there is almost no special recovery period, it is considered a suitable care method for busy modern people.

However, if acne is severe or inflamed, treatment may take priority over peeling.

If you want Aqua Peel, it is necessary to have the skin diagnosed by medical staff and coordinate the schedule so that it can be performed at the appropriate time.

Also, if Aqua Peel alone is not enough to address your skin concerns, you may expect more satisfying results by using procedures that go well with it in combination.

I would be glad if today’s information could serve as a good foundation for those of you trying to care for beautiful skin ^^

This has been Kim Jin-hyeon, chief director of You&I Clinic Mok-dong branch.

Thank you.
