Aladdin Peel Micro-Spicule Resurfacing

Biological micro-spicule resurfacing peel utilizing purified freshwater sponge spicules to accelerate basal epidermal turnover for stubborn acne marks and rough skin texture.

Treatment Overview & Clinical Mechanism

Aladdin Peel Micro-Spicule Resurfacing is a biological skin renewal treatment offered in our Acne, Scar & Redness Treatment program to address chronic comedones, post-inflammatory acne marks, and keratosis pilaris. Rather than relying solely on acid pH dissolution, Aladdin Peel uses microscopic mineral silica spicules derived from natural freshwater sponges alongside mineral-rich marine extracts.

When massaged into the skin, these uniform micro-spicules lodge temporarily within the epidermis for 36 to 48 hours, creating micro-channels that stimulate basal keratinocyte division and microcirculation. As the basal layer regenerates from within, dull surface corneocytes, trapped sebum plugs, and superficial pigmented acne marks shed naturally. At ReYeonK Clinic, Dr. Lee Doochan, Dr. Kim Hyunsu, and Dr. Choi Hyunho adjust rubbing intensity and treatment zones for safe facial and body resurfacing.

Step-by-Step Procedure Process

1:1 Physician Consultation: Assessment of skin thickness, acne mark distribution, and target anatomical area (face, back, or chest).
Deep Cleansing & Preparation: Removal of surface oils and gentle preparation of the treatment zone.
Micro-Spicule Massage Infusion: Controlled manual infusion of the Aladdin Peel micro-spicule mixture adjusted to regional skin tolerance.
Calming & Barrier Protection: Application of cooling soothing gel and post-peel protective hydration.

Post-Treatment Care & Clinical Safety Notice

Expect a mild prickling sensation when touching the treated area for 1 to 2 days while micro-spicules remain active.
Keep the skin well-hydrated with regenerative cream and strict daily sunscreen (SPF 30+) during the exfoliation phase.
Never pick or pull shedding skin sheets prematurely, as doing so can trigger post-inflammatory hyperpigmentation.

Individual results vary depending on skin phototype, barrier sensitivity, and anatomical factors. Potential temporary side effects include localized erythema (redness), mild swelling, bruising, transient dryness or flaking, pigmentary shifts, or rare infection/vascular complications, which require proper post-treatment care and physician guidance.

Frequently Asked Questions

Q. Why does my skin feel slightly prickly the day after Aladdin Peel?

The microscopic freshwater sponge spicules remain embedded in the upper epidermis for 36 to 48 hours to stimulate cellular turnover before naturally shedding with dead skin cells.

Q. What if I prefer a gentler peel without visible shedding?

For sensitive skin or pre-event care without visible flaking, we recommend LHALA Peel 4th-Generation Barrier Renewal or Black Peel Medical Acne Resurfacing. Reach out via Contact Us for a personalized consultation.
