STEP 1: Patch test
Before using LAPO Azelaic Acid Milk, we perform a patch test to ensure skin compatibility. The lightweight emulsion formula is designed to be skin-friendly while delivering a non-sticky texture. Avoid use if you have a known allergy to acids.
STEP 2: Double Cleansing
Begin with LAPO’s double cleansing ritual. Our Amino Acid Cleansing Mousse deeply cleanses with French oat amino acids and patented trehalose, leaving skin hydrated and refreshed.
STEP 3: Apply Azelaic Acid
The 19% high-purity Azelaic Acid targets stubborn acne, fades marks, and brightens skin without causing damage. Allow the product to absorb fully, ensuring effective treatment without irritation.
STEP 4: Manual Extractions
Followed by precise manual extractions to clear stubborn blackheads, congestion, and acne, preventing further inflammation and promoting clearer, healthier skin.
STEP 5: Cold Therapy
To calm and restore the skin post-extraction, we apply Olive Oil Calming Gel, enriched with Centella Asiatica. It is completed with an Ice Apparatus to support skin stability for a refreshed skin.
STEP 6: LED phototherapy
To enhance comfort and optimise results, a 20-minute LED light therapy session is added to help calm redness, reduce inflammation, and accelerate skin recovery.
STEP 7: End Of Ritual
Conclude the treatment with a back massage for deep relaxation. Finish with a complete skincare application - toner, lotion, moisturiser and sun protection to nourish and protect the skin.
Frequently Asked Questions

This peel is known for its ability to reduce the appearance of blemishes and clogged pores, improve skin tone by fading dark spots and redness, soothe inflammation, making it ideal for sensitive and acne-prone skin.
A: Depending on skin sensitivity, it can typically be used every 2 to 4 weeks. A professional consultation can help determine the best frequency for your skin.
- During: You may experience a mild tingling or warmth as the peel works.
- After: Some redness or slight peeling may occur in the days following treatment, but downtime is minimal. With the addition of LED light therapy, post-peel irritation is further minimized, leaving skin feeling soothed, balanced, and visibly brighter.
