Discover the DÉCAAR Algae Peel at Bare & Glow Skin in Ripon, North Yorkshire. Your consultation helps us assess your skin concerns and plan your facial treatments and home skincare.

What is a DÉCAAR Algae Peel and how does it work?

The DÉCAAR Biological Algae Peel combines algae, herbs and perfluorodecalin. Its fine microfibres exfoliate the skin and support skin renewal. At Bare & Glow Skin in Ripon, we tailor your treatment plan to your skin’s needs.

What kind of results can I expect?

The treatment aims to improve the appearance of blemishes, uneven pigmentation and skin texture, helping skin look smoother and brighter. Results vary depending on your skin concerns, treatment course and aftercare.

How long does the treatment take?

Your DÉCAAR Algae Peel facial takes approximately 60 minutes, including preparation and aftercare advice.

Will the peel hurt or sting?

You may experience tingling or a moderate stinging sensation during treatment. Your skin may also feel sensitive afterwards. We will explain what to expect during your consultation.

Can it make my skin worse before it gets better?

Your skin may temporarily look red or feel dry and sensitive. Peeling or flaking can develop in the days following treatment, although the amount varies from person to person.

Do I need to prepare my skin before the treatment?

You will receive personalised preparation advice before your appointment at Bare & Glow Skin. This includes guidance on pausing exfoliants and retinol and avoiding sun exposure before your peel.

How long does it take for my skin to recover?

Recovery generally takes 3–7 days, although this varies. Allow time for your skin to settle when booking your facial before a wedding or special occasion.

How often can I have an algae peel?

The DÉCAAR protocol allows treatments every 7–10 days within a course of 3–6 peels, subject to suitability and skin recovery. A four-week break is recommended before starting a second course. We will discuss the right schedule for you during your consultation.

How long do the results last?

Results may last several weeks or months. Consistent skincare, sun protection and suitable maintenance treatments can help maintain improvements.

Can I combine this treatment with other facials or skincare products?

We can plan your algae peel alongside suitable skincare and other facial treatments at Bare & Glow Skin in Ripon. The combination and timing will depend on your skin concerns and recovery.

Can I wear makeup after the treatment?

It is best to avoid makeup immediately after your peel. Follow the aftercare guidance provided at your appointment before reintroducing makeup.

How soon can I go back to my regular activities?

Many everyday activities can be resumed within 24–48 hours. Sweating, intense exercise, heat and sun exposure should be avoided for the period specified in your aftercare instructions.

Should I avoid certain skincare products after the peel?

Avoid exfoliants, retinol and potentially irritating products until your skin has recovered and you have been advised to restart them. We will explain which skincare products and sun protection to use during recovery.
