Enzyme Peeling (e.g., Papaya or Pumpkin Peel) Cost in Korea

Enzyme Peeling is a gentle yet effective exfoliating treatment widely offered in Korean aesthetic clinics. Utilizing natural fruit enzymes such as papaya (papain) or pumpkin, this treatment helps dissolve dead skin cells, unclog pores, and brighten dull complexions without harsh abrasives or downtime. Enzyme peels are especially favored in Korea for their ability to refresh sensitive or acne-prone skin, often paired with hydrating masks or LED light therapy to enhance post-peel glow and skin health.
