Deep Pore Cleansing

The Deep Pore Cleansing treatment is suitable for all skin types and tones. It is especially beneficial for oily, acne-prone, or congested skin that frequently develops pustules, blackheads, and whiteheads.

I begin with a detailed skin assessment, a double cleanse and exfoliation tailored to your skin’s needs.

Where appropriate, I use steam to soften the skin before carrying out targeted extractions. Depending on your skin, I include high-frequency and selected Skin Tools to complement the care.

A relaxing massage of the face and neck follows, along with a soothing mask and a serum chosen for you.

I finish with eye care, moisturizer, sunscreen for daytime appointments and lip balm.

Avoid exfoliating products (scrubs, AHA, BHA, retinol), self-tanning products, sun exposure, solarium, saunas, and intense exercise for 48 hours before your treatment.

Do not wax, thread, laser, or use depilatory creams on the face 5 days prior our appointment. If you shave, do so the day before, not the same day, to prevent irritation or micro-cuts.

Avoid trying any new skincare products you haven’t used before, and refrain from picking or squeezing blemishes.

If you’re using topical acne medications (such as tretinoin, adapalene, benzoyl peroxide), discontinue them for 48 hours - unless otherwise advised by your dermatologist.

Avoid exercise, hot showers, sauna/steam room, and direct sun exposure for 24–48 hours.

Always use SPF 30–50. Avoid makeup for 24 hours (or choose mineral makeup).

Do not rub, touch, or squeeze your skin. Use gentle, hydrating products and sleep on a clean pillowcase.

in the treated area, avoid facial hair removal and any other aesthetic treatments for 48 hours.

You don’t need to remember everything! At the end of your session, I’ll explain how to care for your skin and email you the detailed instructions so you can refer to them whenever you need.

Deep pore cleansing has minimal downtime.You may experience mild redness or sensitivity for a few hours, usually resolving the same day. Sensitive skin types may experience this for up to 24 hours.

Small breakouts (“purging”) may appear temporarily as the skin detoxifies - this is normal and settles quickly.

By the next day, the skin already looks cleaner, smoother, and more radiant.

Together, we’ll find the frequency your skin needs! My general maintenance recommendations are:

• Dry or normal skin: around once a year, if needed.
• Combination skin: every 4–6 months.
• Oily skin prone to clogged pores: every 2–3 months.

Your schedule is tailored to your skin’s condition, your skincare routine and any other treatments or medication you’re using.
