How an acne facial helps
Clogged pores are where most breakouts start. Clearing out oil and debris, softening dead skin and calming inflammation gives your skin a cleaner slate to heal from.
Professional extractions are done carefully to avoid the marks and spreading that can come from picking at home. We finish with lightweight products suited to oily and breakout-prone skin, so you do not leave with a heavy layer on your face.
Acne care for teens and adults
Breakouts often start in the teen years and can carry well into adulthood. We can help teens and adults alike build a simple home routine that fits their age and skin.
For deeper cleaning, a Deluxe HydraFacial adds extended extractions and blue LED light for congestion, and chemical peels can help some acne-prone skin. If your acne is painful, cystic or widespread, we recommend seeing a dermatologist alongside your facials.

Acne Facial questions
Most people see the best progress with a series of facials spaced a few weeks apart rather than a single visit. We will suggest a schedule after your first appointment based on how your skin responds.
You may feel some pressure and brief discomfort, especially on tender spots. Our estheticians work gently and check in with you throughout. Any redness usually fades by the next day.
Teen skin often does well with regular professional cleansing paired with a simple routine at home. A first facial is also a good chance for teens to learn which products to use and which habits, like picking, to drop.
Keep your hands off your face, skip heavy makeup for the rest of the day and hold off on scrubs or strong exfoliants for a few days. Stick with a gentle cleanser, a light moisturizer and sunscreen.
No facial can promise to cure acne, since hormones, genetics and lifestyle all play a part. Regular acne facials can help keep pores clearer and breakouts more manageable. Individual results vary.
