Possible Risks & Complications
The Herbal Extract Chemical Peel is generally safe and well-tolerated, but minor temporary effects may include:

- Peeling or flaking as the skin naturally exfoliates.
- Temporary dryness or tightness, which can be managed with moisturizing products.

Korean clinics reduce risks by performing personalized skin assessments, selecting the appropriate peel solution, and using soothing herbal-based post-peel treatments.
Techniques Used
The treatment follows a carefully structured multi-step process:
- Deep Cleansing – Removes makeup, oils, and impurities to prepare the skin for treatment.
- Herbal Extract Chemical Peel Application – A professional-grade peel solution enriched with botanical extracts is applied to exfoliate dead skin cells and stimulate regeneration.
- Neutralization & Rinse – The peel is neutralized and removed after the appropriate duration to prevent over-exfoliation.
- Herbal Serum Infusion – Nutrient-rich serums containing vitamin C, hyaluronic acid, peptides, and herbal extracts are applied to soothe and nourish the skin.
- Soothing Mask – A calming herbal mask replenishes moisture, reduces irritation, and enhances the peel’s effects.
- Moisturizer & Sunscreen – Final step protects the skin and supports recovery.
Sessions typically last 45–60 minutes, offering deep rejuvenation with gentle care.
Recovery & Aftercare
Recovery from the Herbal Extract Chemical Peel is minimal, with most patients able to resume daily activities immediately. Recommended aftercare includes:
- Using gentle cleansers and hydrating skincare products.
- Avoiding direct sun exposure, harsh exfoliants, or retinoids for at least 48 hours.
- Applying broad-spectrum sunscreen to protect newly treated skin.
- Avoiding picking or scratching peeling skin to prevent irritation or scarring.
Mild peeling or redness is normal and indicates active skin renewal.

Results are often noticeable after the first session:
- Brighter, smoother, and more radiant skin.
- Reduction in pigmentation and dark spots, with improved skin tone.
- Improved elasticity and firmness, giving a youthful appearance.
- Enhanced skin hydration and texture, creating a soft and supple feel.
