Is SPF 50+ necessary after an algae peel treatment?

Absolutely. The peel unveils a delicate, highly sensitive new layer of skin. Daily application of a broad-spectrum SPF50+ is essential to shield your skin from UVA and UVB rays and to maintain your radiant glow.

Will my skin peel post-algae-peel treatment?

Not necessarily. Peeling varies according to individual skin sensitivity. Even without visible peeling, the algae spicules are elegantly initiating a deep renewal process.

Are parabens used in Aurah's algae peel products?

No. All products incorporated into this luxurious treatment are completely paraben-free.

Is the algae peel procedure suitable in summer?

Yes, an algae peel is suitable for all seasons. However, post-treatment, it’s advisable to minimise direct sun exposure. Your skin will be especially receptive, so consistent SPF50+ application is vital to preserve your luminous, renewed skin.

Is it normal to experience stinging after the procedure?

Yes, a mild stinging or prickling sensation for 3-5 days post-treatment is common, reflecting the depth of the renewal process.

Will my skin become thinner or more sensitive?

On the contrary, your skin will be revitalised and strengthened. While protective measures are essential, this treatment ultimately boosts your skin’s resilience, firmness, and vitality through enhanced metabolism and collagen synthesis.

Is an algae peel uncomfortable?

Most clients experience a gentle tingling during the massage phase. Discomfort is minimal and varies according to skin sensitivity.

What is the downtime after an algae peel?

Reactions are individualised; however, most clients notice peeling commencing around day three and completing by day five. While you may leave the house as usual, we recommend scheduling your treatment midweek if you wish to enjoy the peeling phase over the weekend.

How does AN AURAH bioactive algae peel work?

Departing from traditional superficial treatments, our Bioactive Algae Peel operates on a profound biological level. Infused with delicate algae spicules, this treatment penetrates beneath the surface to:

Stimulate deep cell renewal

Accelerate your skin’s innate regeneration cycle, transforming months of renewal into mere days.

Enhance microcirculation

Boost blood flow, delivering vital oxygen and nutrients to revitalise your skin from within.

Activate natural exfoliation

Initiate an elegant, internal renewal process that reveals a radiant, refreshed complexion within days.

Working with your skin’s natural barrier, this treatment offers a refined alternative to conventional methods, awakening your skin’s true vitality.

IS AN algae peel worth it?

The Aurah algae peel is formulated with pure marine botanicals, offering an effective, natural treatment alternative to chemical peels. It's an effective remedy for people seeking to address issues with acne, oily skin, pigmentation issues, ageing skin, rosacea, and scarring.

An algae peel utilises manual application rather than synthetic acids, effectively engaging the skin’s intrinsic renewal processes. Although the treatment may induce a degree of discomfort during application, similar to that of a vigorous exfoliating scrub, the benefits are substantial, with noticeable results typically achieved after just one session.

WHAT ARE THE BENEFITS OF AN ALGAE PEEL?

Designed to address diverse skin concerns, this luxurious treatment activates your skin’s innate resilience.

An Aurah Algae Peel can help you achieve:

Luminous, even skin tone

Correcting hyperpigmentation, dark spots, and uneven pigmentation for a vibrant, sophisticated glow.

Refinement of acne scars and blemishes

Targeting bacteria, regulating excess oils, and reducing the appearance of scars with grace.

Anti-ageing AND LOOSE SKIN POST-RAPID-WEIGHT-LOSS renewal

Softening fine lines and wrinkles by invigorating fibroblasts to naturally enhance collagen and elastin production.

Enhanced skin vitality

Restoring optimal skin thickness, reducing inflammation, and reinforcing your skin’s immune defences.

A luminous glow

An incomparable radiance emanates from boosted microcirculation, leaving your skin appearing healthy and radiant.
