Acne Clarifying Facial Treatment
Effective, targeted treatment to reduce acne and improve skin clarity
What is Acne Clarifying Facial?
An Acne Clarifying Facial is a specialised treatment designed to target congested pores, reduce inflammation, and manage breakouts. This facial combines cleansing, exfoliation, extraction, and therapeutic serums to restore the skin's natural balance and promote a clearer, healthier complexion.

Gentle cleansing to remove dirt, oil, and makeup.
Exfoliation using chemical or mechanical methods to remove dead skin cells.
Extraction of blackheads and whiteheads if necessary.
Application of acne-fighting serums rich in salicylic acid, niacinamide, or other active ingredients.
Soothing mask to calm inflammation and hydrate skin.
Moisturiser and SPF to protect post-treatment skin.

How the Treatment Works
The treatment works by unclogging pores, reducing excess oil, and targeting acne-causing bacteria. Active ingredients such as salicylic acid penetrate deep into the pores, helping to dissolve sebum and prevent new breakouts. Anti-inflammatory agents calm redness and swelling, while hydration restores the skin barrier for long-term health.
