Real Glass Skin. No Downtime. No Needles.

This is a machine-based aqua peel treatment built around the same vortex extraction technology used in professional clinical settings, customized with a Korean clinical serum protocol and closed with PDRN, the same active ingredient used in Korean dermatology clinics for cellular repair and deep hydration. The result is glass skin clarity you can see the moment you leave the table. Clean pores, even tone, genuine hydration, and no downtime.

It is not a standard facial. The mechanism is different. Controlled vortex suction stretches the follicle opening and pulls out compacted debris while water-based serums loosen and lift what is inside the pore at the same time. Active ingredients are then delivered during the window immediately after, when the skin is at its highest point of absorption. That is how this treatment produces results.

How This Treatment Works

Most facials work on top of the skin. The Korean Hydra Glass Facial works differently because of the way the machine functions.

The vortex tip seals against the skin and creates a controlled negative pressure environment. That suction physically stretches the follicle opening wider than its resting state, pulling the pore canal open from above. At the same moment, a water based serum solution is delivered into the canal, loosening and emulsifying whatever is compacted inside, sebum, oxidized debris, dead cell buildup, bacteria. The waste is drawn up and out through the same tip.

The clinical significance of this is timing. The moment the pore is dilated by suction and the contents have been cleared, the skin is at its highest point of permeability. Active ingredients applied in that window penetrate significantly deeper than anything applied to untreated skin. This is why the Korean active infusion applied after the machine step produces results that topical skincare alone cannot replicate.

Peer reviewed research published in the Journal of Cosmetic Dermatology confirmed this mechanism directly. In a controlled study, skin treated with hydra-dermabrasion demonstrated significantly increased epidermal thickness, papillary dermal thickness, fibroblast density, and antioxidant levels compared to skin that received the same active serum applied manually. The machine is not just a delivery vehicle. The mechanism itself is the treatment.

What Is Included

Every session includes the following:

Cleanse and Prep The skin is double cleansed and prepped with a professional-grade serum containing lactic acid, urea, glucosamine, and yeast extract delivered through the vortex handpiece to begin softening surface debris and priming the follicle for extraction.

Exfoliation and Pore Clearing A salicylic acid-based serum with niacinamide, turmeric, ginger, and honey extract is delivered through the vortex system to dissolve oil and debris inside the pore while suction lifts it out simultaneously. A glycolic and salicylic acid professional peel is then applied, allowed to process, and removed.

Manual and Device Extractions Extractions are performed using both hands-on technique and vortex suction to clear congestion thoroughly without trauma.

Skin Type Customized Infusion Following extractions, an antioxidant-rich infusion of hyaluronic acid, green tea, resveratrol, seaweed, arnica, retinyl palmitate, and vitamin E is delivered through the vortex handpiece. For acne-prone skin, a brightening infusion with arbutin, stable vitamin C, bearberry extract, licorice, and glycolic acid is substituted to address discoloration and active congestion. For acne clients, an anti-inflammatory chlorophyllin therapy is applied under blue LED at this stage.

Mask and Massage A treatment mask is applied while a relaxing facial massage is performed, including neck and decollete.

LED Therapy Blue light (415nm) for acne and congested skin. Red light (630nm) for sensitive, redness-prone, and mature skin.

Professional Hydration Booster A professional-grade hydration booster with hyaluronic acid and barrier-replenishing actives is infused through the vortex handpiece to lock in moisture and complete the treatment cycle..

Who Is This Treatment For

Korean dermatology clinics and professional skin care rooms consistently position aqua peel technology for:

Congested pores and blackheads. The suction and salicylic phase work together to clear compacted sebum and oxidized debris that manual extraction cannot reach without trauma. Pores appear visibly smaller and cleaner immediately following treatment.

Dullness and uneven skin tone. The combination of surface exfoliation and deep infusion produces an immediate clarity and evenness. Regular sessions support progressive improvement in overall tone.

Dehydrated and depleted skin. The infusion phase delivers hyaluronic acid and antioxidants at a depth that topical application alone cannot achieve. Skin feels genuinely plump rather than superficially moisturized.

Oily and acne prone skin. The salicylic phase regulates sebum at the source. Korean clinical sources note consistent improvement in congestion and breakout frequency with regular aqua peel sessions.

Sensitive and redness prone skin. Because this treatment uses no abrasive crystals and no aggressive acid concentrations, it is appropriate for reactive skin types that cannot tolerate traditional exfoliation methods. The water based mechanism minimizes trauma to the barrier.

Pre-event skin. Korean clients schedule aqua peel treatments before significant events specifically for the immediate glass skin result. There is no redness, no peeling, and no downtime. Skin is camera ready the same day.

All skin tones. The water based mechanism involves no pH manipulation or protein denaturation, which means there is no risk of post-inflammatory hyperpigmentation. This treatment is appropriate for all Fitzpatrick skin types.

How Often to Book

Single session: $130 Recommended every two to four weeks for skin maintenance. Results are immediate and cumulative. Each session builds on the last as pore health, hydration, and skin clarity improve progressively.

As a focused series For clients targeting specific concerns such as persistent congestion, chronic dehydration, or uneven texture, a series of three sessions spaced two to three weeks apart accelerates results. Improvement is typically most noticeable between sessions two and three.

A $26 deposit is collected at booking and applied toward your session total. The remaining balance is collected at the time of your appointment.
