Clearing clogged pores first,
Acne Scaling
When dead skin, sebum, and blackheads clog the pores, acne and breakouts begin. Discover Mellow's Acne Scaling, which purifies the pores with a peel matched to your skin type and restores your skin's regeneration cycle to normal.
Why Scaling
When pores clog,
breakouts begin
Built-up dead skin and excess sebum clog the pores and create the perfect environment for bacteria to multiply. Scaling is the foundational care that empties this starting point and reduces acne at its root.

Concern 01
Built-up dead skin
When old dead skin builds up thickly, it blocks the pore openings and makes skin look dull and rough.

Concern 02
Excess sebum
When sebum is over-produced, it binds with dead skin to clog the pores, making it easy for acne bacteria to thrive.

Concern 03
Blackheads & whiteheads
When sebum trapped in clogged pores oxidizes and hardens, it turns into blackheads that can spread into inflammatory acne.

Concern 04
Enlarged pores & dullness
Pores stretch and become noticeable, the regeneration cycle breaks down, and makeup starts to sit unevenly.
What It Does
Empty, refine,
and awaken renewal
It doesn't just slough off dead skin — it purifies the pores and normalizes the skin's regeneration cycle to build a foundation where breakouts no longer recur.
Texture
Smoother texture
Clears away old dead skin to refine texture that is smooth and radiant.
Pore
Pore & sebum control
Empties clogged pores and balances excess sebum to keep pores in check.
Acne
Acne prevention
Reduces the environment where bacteria multiply, lowering the recurrence of acne and breakouts.
Renewal
Renewal & tone
Normalizes the regeneration cycle to lift dull tone and firmness together.
Peeling Solutions
Choosing the peel
to match your skin type
A stronger peel isn't necessarily better. Choosing the type of acid and the method to match your dead skin, sebum, and sensitivity is the key to results without irritation.

Expert Care
With peels, it's not the strength
but the ‘choice’ that matters
Dr. Kwon Hyung-il, Director · Board-certified dermatologist
Even with the same dead skin and sebum, skin thickness, sensitivity, and the degree of breakouts differ from person to person. A peel that is simply strong can instead leave redness, dryness, and barrier damage.
Matching the type of acid, its concentration, and the interval through an accurate skin diagnosis — that choice is what delivers results without irritation. We carefully design everything from the diagnosis to post-treatment soothing care.
★ Mellow Acne Scaling principles
- Peel type and concentration tailored to skin type and sensitivity
- Pore purification and a normalized regeneration cycle, without excess irritation
- A plan that covers post-treatment soothing, hydration, and sun care
Before & After Care
Before and after a peel, diagnosis and care
determine the results
A peel that doesn't suit your skin condition can leave irritation, temporary redness, dryness, or damage to the skin barrier. When you choose the right solution through a specialist's diagnosis beforehand, then focus on soothing and moisturizing afterward and use sunscreen consistently, you can minimize irritation and keep the results longer.
