An acne facial is a specialized treatment designed specifically for breakout-prone skin. Unlike regular facials, acne facials use targeted products and techniques to deep clean congested pores, reduce inflammation, kill acne-causing bacteria, and prevent future breakouts.

At MedBeautyLA, our acne facials combine professional extractions, antibacterial treatments, and calming therapies to clear existing acne while preventing new breakouts. It's the perfect monthly maintenance treatment for anyone struggling with persistent acne.

Frequently Asked Questions

Will extractions hurt?

Professional extractions are much less painful than doing them yourself! We steam your skin first to soften pores, making extractions easier and more comfortable. Most patients describe mild pressure rather than pain.

Can I wear makeup after an acne facial?

We recommend waiting 24 hours before applying makeup to let your freshly cleaned pores breathe. If you must wear makeup, use only mineral-based products and apply lightly.

How often should I get acne facials?

For active acne, we recommend facials every 2-3 weeks until skin clears, then monthly for maintenance. Consistent treatment is key to keeping acne under control.

Will my skin purge after an acne facial?

Some patients experience a brief "purge" where existing congestion comes to the surface faster. This is normal and actually a good sign! It typically resolves within 3-5 days, and your skin will be clearer afterward.

What's the difference between an acne facial and a regular facial?

Acne facials use products specifically formulated for breakout-prone skin (salicylic acid, benzoyl peroxide, etc.) and include more extensive extractions, antibacterial treatments, and oil-control techniques that regular facials don't offer.

Can acne facials help with acne scars?

While acne facials primarily treat active breakouts, regular treatments can improve minor texture issues and prevent new scars from forming. For existing acne scars, we recommend microneedling or laser treatments.
