Medicube Red Acne Body Peeling Shot

Medicube Red Acne Body Peeling Shot is an exfoliating treatment for body acne — the breakouts on the back, chest and shoulders that face products rarely reach.

It combines salicylic acid (BHA), which works inside the pore on the clogs that cause breakouts, with AHA, which loosens dead skin on the surface for smoother texture. Body skin is thicker than facial skin, so it tolerates this kind of exfoliation well.

How to use: apply to clean, dry skin on the affected areas. Leave on — do not rinse. Start every other day and build up. Avoid broken skin and use sunscreen on exposed areas.

Frequently asked questions

Why does body acne need its own product?
Body skin is thicker and the pores are larger, and it is covered by clothing that traps sweat. A stronger exfoliant is usually needed than on the face.

Can I use it on my face?
It is formulated for the body. Use a dedicated facial product on the face.

How long before I see results?
Rough texture improves within a couple of weeks. Breakouts take around 4–8 weeks of consistent use.
