About This Treatment
KrX Green Sea Peel
An acid-free resurfacing peel that uses marine spicules, tiny natural micro-needles from sea sponge, to wake up your skin's renewal. Great for texture, acne and clogged pores, dark spots and post-breakout marks, and fine lines. It's also great for skin that doesn't love acids or retinoids.
What's in it: southern bull kelp (amino acids, minerals, antioxidants), hydrolyzed sea sponge spicules, and algae extract for hydration and barrier support. An activator with hyaluronic acid and allantoin keeps recovery smoother.
Before your peel: for 5 to 7 days before, stop retinoids, exfoliating acids, scrubs, benzoyl peroxide, and heavy creams. If you're prone to dark marks, I may have you prep with a brightener for about 6 weeks.
Spacing: You can repeat it 10 to 14 days after peeling finishes. Keep peels, microneedling, and laser 3 to 4 weeks apart from this treatment.
