Extractions of black heads

I’ve frequently had clients come in and tell me they hate facials, that they don’t find them relaxing, and that they are painful! This always surprises me as I pride myself on providing a relaxing facial.

What’s the culprit? Extractions!

Granted there are some people that are very sensitive and the lightest of pressure can be irritating to them. But for the most part extractions should not be painful! Sure there may be some mild discomfort but it should not be severe! With proper steaming and enzymes extractions can be made so much easier. Sure there are some extractions that can be difficult, extractions should not be forced! If you are in a great amount of pain it is likely your skin is being damaged!

Extractions are not for everyone and are an option in a facial. I do recommend extractions as pores (especially pores in the nose) can become full of blackheads and this can give the skin a dirty appearance and also prevent product from penetrating.

Listen to what your skin is telling you, if it’s too much let your Esthetician know!

I want your facial to be enjoyable, relaxing and for you to leave with glowing beautiful skin!
