What it is

An algae peel is a plant-based peel in which fine natural particles from algae or sponges, also known as spicules, are massaged into the skin. This encourages the skin’s natural renewal without the use of chemical acids. You will feel a tingling sensation during and after the treatment, and your skin may flake lightly in the days that follow.

We adjust the intensity of the treatment to your skin and your wishes [TODO: describe your product and the intensities you offer]. On your first visit we always begin with a consultation and skin analysis, so you know exactly what to expect.

Who it’s for

  • skin that looks dull or uneven
  • anyone looking for a renewing treatment without chemical acids
  • visible unevenness or a coarser skin texture
  • anyone who would like to refresh the look of their skin

Results you can expect

  • a fresher, more radiant complexion
  • skin texture that feels smoother
  • many clients notice a more even tone once flaking has settled
  • skin that may absorb nourishing products more readily afterwards

What happens during the session

  1. We talk about your skin and your wishes and check the treatment is right for you.
  2. Your skin is thoroughly cleansed and prepared.
  3. We massage the algae peel into the skin; you will feel a tingling or prickling sensation.
  4. After the working time the product is removed or partly left on the skin, depending on the protocol [TODO: your method].
  5. We finish with soothing care and sun protection.

Frequently asked questions

Which product do you use?

We work with [TODO: name and type of your algae peel]. During your consultation we are happy to explain what is in it and how it works.

What does the treatment feel like?

Most clients feel a tingling or light prickling, sometimes for a while after the treatment as well. This is part of how the peel works.

Will I visibly flake?

It varies by skin and by intensity. Some clients barely flake, others visibly for a few days. It is best not to plan important occasions in the days afterwards.
