Algae Peel Treatment
Natural Skin Renewal Facial
An algae peel is an advanced natural skin resurfacing treatment designed to renew the skin from within—without the use of harsh acids or chemicals.
Unlike traditional chemical peels, this treatment works by stimulating your skin’s natural regeneration process, helping to improve acne, pigmentation, scarring, and overall skin quality in a controlled and clinically safe way.
At Este Medical Group, this treatment is performed by trained practitioners using clinically proven techniques tailored to your skin type and concerns.
