What is an Aqua Peel?
Aqua Peel is a hydradermabrasion facial. A handpiece with a special tip gently exfoliates the skin while delivering cleansing and hydrating solutions and using suction to lift out dead cells, sebum and blackheads from the pores. Unlike a chemical peel, it does not cause visible peeling, so the skin usually looks fresher straight away rather than after a few days of recovery.
Because it is gentle, Aqua Peel works well as a regular maintenance facial and as preparation before other treatments, helping the skin absorb serums or boosters. It is often combined with soothing care, vitamin care or LED light, and it fits into wider plans such as glowing skin treatments or a medical facial.

Who is a good candidate for an Aqua Peel?
- Clogged pores and blackheads
- Oily or combination skin
- Dull or dehydrated skin
- Rough surface texture
- Anyone wanting a quick refresh before an event
Aqua Peel suits most skin types, but it is usually postponed with active infection, open wounds, a cold sore or a recent sunburn in the area. If you have very sensitive skin, rosacea or inflamed acne, tell us so the settings and solutions can be adjusted, or the doctor may suggest a calmer treatment first.
