What Is AquaPeel?

AquaPeel (also called Aqua Peel or Hydro Dermabrasion) is a non-invasive skincare treatment that cleanses, exfoliates, and hydrates the skin in one session. It uses a water-based vacuum system plus gentle exfoliation to remove dead skin, impurities, and congestion while infusing nourishing serums.

It’s popular in Seoul for its quick results, minimal downtime, and suitability for most skin types.

How It Works

AquaPeel combines:

✔ Gentle exfoliation — loosens dead skin cells
✔ Suction — extracts blackheads, whiteheads, and debris
✔ Hydration infusion — delivers moisturizing and brightening serums

The device glides over the skin, simultaneously exfoliating and infusing active solutions to improve texture and clarity.

What It Treats

AquaPeel is great for:

✅ Oiliness and congested pores
✅ Blackheads and whiteheads
✅ Dull, uneven texture
✅ Mild pigmentation and surface discoloration
✅ Roughness and dry flaky skin
✅ Mild acne or breakouts
✅ Dehydrated skin needing hydration

While it doesn’t reach deep scarring or severe acne, it’s excellent as a refreshing, brightening maintenance treatment.

Typical Treatment Process

Before:
• Consultation to choose the right solution mix

During:
• Cleanse
• AquaPeel handpiece passes over the face
• Exfoliation + extraction + serum infusion

Duration:
• Usually 20–40 minutes
• No needles or lasers

After:
• Immediate glow and smoother feel

Sessions are gentle and comfortable, with most people returning to daily life right after.

What to Expect After

✔ Instantly smoother, brighter skin
✔ Reduced congestion and cleaner pores
✔ Hydrated, plump feel
✔ Mild redness or warmth may appear but fades quickly

Often called a “wet facial,” AquaPeel doesn’t usually involve peeling or extended downtime.

Aftercare Tips

✔ Use broad-spectrum SPF daily (very important)
✔ Avoid heavy exfoliants or strong acids for 24–48 hours
✔ Keep skin hydrated with gentle creams or serums
✔ Avoid excessive sun or intense heat soon after treatment

Good aftercare helps maintain the fresh, glowing result.

Typical Frequency

✔ Many people start with monthly sessions
✔ Some follow up more frequently for targeted concerns
✔ Maintenance every few weeks can keep skin clear and bright

Your provider will tailor the frequency based on skin needs.
