The Green Sea Peel - A Natural Path to Radiant Skin
Lately, I’ve been diving deep into Korean skincare treatments, and I’ve completely fallen in love with the Green Sea Peel. This unique treatment delivers incredible results, is budget-friendly, and, best of all, provides advanced skin rejuvenation that’s safe for pregnant and nursing women. I’m so excited to bring this natural, results-driven peel to SKINCRVFT!
If you're looking for a skin resurfacing treatment that delivers powerful results without the use of harsh chemicals, the Green Sea Peel is your answer. This all-natural, herbal-based peel harnesses the power of marine botanicals and spicules to rejuvenate the skin, improve texture, and promote a youthful glow—all without the downtime associated with traditional chemical peels.
What is the Green Sea Peel?
The Green Sea Peel is a non-invasive, herbal-based resurfacing treatment that utilizes the potency of sea-derived ingredients, including spicules, to accelerate skin renewal. Spicules are microscopic needle-like structures extracted from marine sponges or corals. When tapped into the skin, they create a microchanneling effect, allowing for enhanced absorption of nutrients and stimulating collagen production. Unlike conventional chemical peels that rely on acids, this peel works by triggering the skin’s natural regenerative processes. The treatment deeply exfoliates dead skin cells, boosts circulation, and enhances overall skin health, leaving your complexion smoother, brighter, and more even-toned.
The Power of Spicules in Skin Rejuvenation
Spicules have been used for centuries in traditional Eastern European and Asian skin therapies. Their sharp, microscopic structure allows them to penetrate the epidermis, acting as a transepidermal delivery system for a variety of beneficial nutrients. As they dissolve, they release a polypharmacy of vitamins, minerals, and natural steroids like Vitamin D, helping to stimulate collagen, normalize melanocyte activity, and improve cellular health.
Spicules also create a histamine response, increasing blood flow and oxygenating the skin. This is particularly beneficial for treating acne, as it disrupts the anaerobic environment where acne-causing bacteria thrive. Additionally, spicules help to loosen sebum plugs, making them an excellent treatment for congestion and maturation arrest acne.
Key Ingredients & Their Benefits
Zinc – Essential for collagen synthesis, wound healing, and maintaining healthy skin tissue.
Linoleic Acid – An Omega-6 fatty acid that strengthens the skin barrier and helps retain moisture.
Calcium – Supports cell turnover and helps maintain the skin's natural barrier function.
Vitamin D – Acts as an antimicrobial agent and supports overall skin health.
Amino Acid Complex – Provides essential building blocks for collagen, elastin, and keratin.
Copper – Stimulates fibroblast activity, promotes wound healing, and fights oxidative stress.

What to Expect During & After Treatment
During the treatment, the herbal peel is gently tapped into the skin, allowing the spicules to penetrate and stimulate the renewal process. A prickling sensation is normal and may last up to 48 hours. Redness typically peaks within the first 24 hours, followed by light peeling or flaking around days 3-5 as the skin sheds dead cells to reveal a fresh, revitalized complexion.
Pre & Post Care Instructions
Pre-Treatment Guidelines
Avoid heavy moisturizers and hydrating masks for at least 48 hours before your treatment to ensure optimal peeling results.
Do not exfoliate manually or chemically for at least 72 hours before treatment.
Discontinue use of all active topicals (such as retinoids, acids, and prescription skincare) at least 7 days prior to treatment.
I highly recommend starting with a Bioherb50 treatment in the studio before doing the Green Sea Peel. Bioherb50 is a light spicule resurfacing treatment (90,000 ppm) that provides gentle exfoliation, making it an excellent introduction to the sensation of spicules. It’s a great way to prepare your skin for the deeper intensity of the Green Sea Peel and is gentle enough for home use.
Post-Treatment Care
First 24 Hours: Avoid cleansing, applying moisturizer, or using SPF.
Avoid Excessive Heat & Exercise: For 72 hours, avoid saunas, hot showers, and strenuous workouts to prevent overheating the skin.
Do Not Exfoliate: Refrain from exfoliating the skin for at least 7 days post-peel.
Do Not Pick or Peel: Allow the skin to shed naturally to prevent post-inflammatory hyperpigmentation (PIH).
Protect & Hydrate: Stay out of direct sunlight and protect your skin by applying a moisturizer approved by your esthetician along with daily SPF.
Treatments can be done every 4-6 weeks depending on your skin type, concerns, and how well your skin has recovered from the previous treatment.
Contraindications
The Green Sea Peel is not suitable for individuals with:
- Shellfish allergies (as a precaution)
