Skin

Correction without the recovery.

Three Korean peels for three different skins: Clear Peel for congestion, V-GRAPE Pro for age renewal, and the green sea spicule algae peel for deeper resurfacing.

From £145

Meaningful skin correction without having to hide away while your skin peels and recovers.

Three professional Korean peels are offered, each created for a different kind of skin. The Clear Peel Clarifying Facial targets congestion, breakouts and excess oil. The V-GRAPE Pro Age Renewal Peel refines texture and restores luminosity to ageing or tired skin. The Green Sea Spicule Peel, also searched for as the algae peel, is a more intensive resurfacing programme for pigmentation, scarring and established changes in skin quality.

None of these treatments is about stripping the skin. Each combines controlled exfoliation with calming, barrier supporting ingredients, and your skin is always assessed first so we can decide together which peel is right for your concerns.

Clear Peel Clarifying Facial

Clear. Calm. Rebalance. A targeted Korean skin treatment for congested, blemish prone and unbalanced skin, built around the professional KRX Clear Peel: an advanced multi-acid formulation combining 10% mandelic acid, 15% malic acid and 2% salicylic acid.

These carefully selected acids work at different levels to exfoliate accumulated dead skin cells, help clear blocked pores and reduce excess oil. The formula also contains skin calming ingredients including Centella Asiatica, willow bark, Lactobacillus ferment, madecassoside, asiaticoside and green tea extracts, so we can target congestion while supporting calm, comfortable and resilient skin.

Importantly, there is no planned downtime, making Clear Peel an excellent option if you want meaningful skin correction without having to hide away while your skin peels and recovers.

Particularly suited to acne and breakout prone skin, blackheads and blocked pores, congestion, excess oil and sebum, uneven or rough texture, post blemish marks, redness and inflammation associated with breakouts, and some rosacea prone skins following individual skin assessment.

Single treatment £145, or the Clear Skin Programme of four treatments for £549, saving £31. Your skin is assessed throughout the programme so the treatment adapts as it begins to change. Every treatment includes a full skin consultation, the professional KRX Clear Peel, multi-acid exfoliation tailored to your skin, a soothing protocol and personalised aftercare and home skincare advice.

V-GRAPE Pro Age Renewal Peel

Renew. Refine. Revitalise. An advanced Korean no downtime treatment that works on multiple aspects of skin ageing at once, helping to refine texture, improve clarity, soften the appearance of early lines and restore healthy luminosity.

Lactic, glycolic and salicylic acids remove accumulated surface cells, refine pores and encourage controlled skin renewal without aggressive peeling or extended recovery. Grape derived polyphenols and resveratrol provide powerful antioxidant protection while supporting natural regeneration and collagen processes.

The treatment also incorporates CO2 activation technology. Through a process known as the Bohr effect, this encourages increased oxygen release within the skin tissue, helping tired, sluggish looking skin appear fresher and revitalised. Ceramides and microbiome support complexes then restore hydration and barrier resilience following exfoliation.

Particularly suited to ageing or prematurely aged skin, fine lines and early signs of ageing, dull or lacklustre skin, rough or uneven texture, enlarged pores, skin that has lost its natural radiance, mild uneven tone or superficial pigmentation, and sun exposed or environmentally stressed skin.

Single treatment £145, or the V-GRAPE Pro Age Renewal Programme of four treatments for £549, saving £31. If pigmentation is your primary concern, a more targeted treatment may be recommended at your assessment. Every treatment includes a full consultation, the professional V-GRAPE Pro protocol with CO2 activation, hydration and barrier restoration, and personalised aftercare advice.

Green Sea Spicule Advanced Resurfacing Programme

Resurface. Renew. Correct. Some skin concerns sit deeper than a brightening facial or gentle peel can realistically reach. The KRX Green Sea Peel, also widely searched as the algae peel, uses advanced sea derived spicule technology to create thousands of microscopic channels within the skin, stimulating the natural renewal response and supporting collagen production.

The treatment combines hydrolysed sea sponge and Durvillaea Antarctica extract with hyaluronic acid, beta glucan and allantoin, resurfacing and rejuvenating while supporting hydration and recovery. It is suited to moderate or more established pigmentation, sun damage, post inflammatory pigmentation, acne scarring, rough texture, more established signs of ageing and skin that has reached the limits of gentler treatments.

This is an intensive peel with real downtime. Visible, potentially intense peeling forms part of the recovery process, so it is offered only as a complete programme of four treatments for £950, including the specific pre and post treatment skincare you will need at home. Correct preparation and aftercare are essential, particularly when treating pigmentation, where inappropriate skincare, picking, sun exposure or poor aftercare can increase the risk of post inflammatory hyperpigmentation.

A consultation and a patch test 24 hours before your first treatment are both required. The peel contains sea derived ingredients and is not suitable for anyone with a seafood allergy. For the right skin and the right concern, it gives us an advanced option for deeper, progressive skin renewal with professional guidance at every stage.

Questions

Good to know.

Do I need a patch test before a chemical peel?+

Clear Peel and V-GRAPE Pro can be booked without a patch test. The exception is the green sea spicule peel, also known as the algae peel, which requires a consultation and a patch test 24 hours before your first treatment.

Will my skin peel?+

There is no planned downtime with Clear Peel or V-GRAPE Pro. The green sea spicule algae peel is deliberately very different: visible, potentially intense peeling forms part of the recovery process, and your programme includes the pre and post treatment skincare to manage it safely.

Which peel is right for me?+

Clear Peel suits congestion, breakouts and excess oil. V-GRAPE Pro suits ageing, dullness, texture and loss of radiance. The green sea spicule programme suits more established pigmentation, scarring and deeper rejuvenation. Your skin is assessed first so we can decide together.

Is the algae peel suitable for everyone?+

No. The green sea spicule peel contains sea derived ingredients and is not suitable for anyone with a seafood allergy. There is also a risk of post inflammatory hyperpigmentation with intensive resurfacing, which is why preparation, aftercare and suitability assessment are taken so seriously.

Is it suitable for rosacea prone skin?+

Clear Peel can be suitable for some rosacea prone skins following an individual skin assessment at consultation.

How many treatments will I need?+

Single treatments are available for Clear Peel and V-GRAPE Pro, with a course of four recommended for persistent concerns. The green sea spicule peel is offered only as a four treatment programme.
