Mandelic Acid Peel Cost in Korea
The Mandelic Acid Peel is a gentle alpha hydroxy acid (AHA) chemical peel derived from bitter almonds, known for its anti-bacterial and exfoliating properties. It's ideal for sensitive skin, acne-prone conditions, and pigmentation issues without causing excessive irritation. In Korea, this peel is popular among patients with rosacea, acne, and dull skin due to its minimal downtime and compatibility with Korean skincare regimens. Many dermatology and aesthetic clinics offer it as a standalone or combined treatment for smoother, brighter skin.
