Algae Peel
An algae peel is a natural, botanical resurfacing treatment that uses algae and herbs to speed up cell turnover from weeks to just a few days. Unlike chemical peels, this treatment works from the inside out to reduce acne, pigmentation, and aging signs while boosting collagen.
Indulge in the rejuvenating elegance of our peels treatment, a luxurious skin-renewal ritual designed to restore radiance and vitality. This advanced treatment harnesses the power of nutrient-rich marine algae, gently stimulating the skin’s natural renewal process while delivering a concentrated infusion of vitamins, minerals, and antioxidants. As the peel works to refine
texture and encourage cellular turnover, the complexion becomes smoother, brighter, and visibly revitalized. Ideal for those seeking a refined yet effective skin transformation, the peel reveals a luminous, youthful glow while leaving the skin feeling deeply refreshed, balanced, and beautifully renewed.
Skin Consultation for algae peel
Before the treatment, we will complete a consultation as well as assess your skin type and any concerns you may have. After this and if the treatment is right for you, we will proceed.
Cleansing & Preparation
The treatment will begin with a deep cleansing of the skin. Skin is degreased so the algae ingredients penetrate properly.
Application of the Peel
The peel is blended together and we then apply the algae mixture into the skin.
The algae contains tiny needle-like structures called spicules.
When massaged into the skin, they create micro-stimulation in the epidermis.
This triggers cell turnover, collagen stimulation, and exfoliation.
You might feel:
Prickling or tingling
Mild heat or tightness
The massage usually lasts 5–10 minutes, depending on strength.
Post-Treatment Products
After the peel:
A calming mask or serum is applied.
Products to hydrate and soothe the skin are used.
If required a Dermalux LED is used to further enhance results.
