As the weather cools in autumn, people tend to neglect their skin care, and skin conditions tend to occur more frequently.

According to Dr. Lee Yu-seok, director of Gangnam View Women's Clinic, a Pyeongtaek dermatology clinic, on the 28th, while pigmented conditions such as melasma, freckles, and blemishes are problematic, adult acne is a concern for both men and women.

There are various causes of adult acne, but Demodex mites are often the cause. Demodex mites are a type of mite that lives in the skin, feeding on nutrients.

The more Demodex mites there are, the more various skin troubles can occur, including acne, as well as dry skin, wrinkles, and skin aging.

Many people unknowingly foster Demodex mites in their skin due to incorrect beliefs, such as thinking that acne is caused by not washing frequently enough, leading them to over-wash their faces.

However, this not only dries out the skin but also makes it alkaline, which can actually create an environment more favorable for Demodex mites to thrive.

So, how can Demodex mites, known as a major cause of adult acne, be resolved?

Demodex mites, which cause various skin troubles, can be effectively removed through Aqua Peel.

Aqua Peel is a cutting-edge treatment that is effective for removing sebum, waste products, blackheads, and whiteheads from pores, managing acne, and is also highly effective in removing Demodex mites.

Aqua Peel treats various skin conditions by allowing three special solutions that give the skin a "water glow" to penetrate into the pores. It also replenishes the skin with moisture and nutrients, which can lead to healthy and elastic skin.

The Aqua Peel treatment process involves using a clockwise rotating tip to infuse AHA (alpha hydroxy acid) into the pores to gently dissolve dead skin cells, sebum, and blackheads. Then, salicylic acid is infused to perform antioxidant and anti-inflammatory actions while removing dead skin cells, sebum, and blackheads, and cleaning the pores in the T-zone.

During this process, Demodex mites, a cause of acne, are also removed. The treatment concludes by supplying moisture and nutrients to the cleansed pores with a highly concentrated hydro essence.

Director Lee Yu-seok explained, "Aqua Peel is excellent for improving sebum, blackheads, whiteheads, dead skin cells, and oiliness, but it is also effective in removing Demodex mites, the main culprit of adult acne. This allows for fundamental acne improvement, and it is a new concept treatment method that can achieve significant results with just one session."

He also advised, "Although it is an effective treatment with almost no side effects, improving skin texture and elasticity, and making the skin glow as if it has a 'water glow,' Aqua Peel treatment requires dedicated solutions and medically approved medical devices. Therefore, it is important to receive accurate treatment only at registered clinics."
