Get answers to common questions about Acne Defence Facial.

Yes. The Acne Defence Facial is customized for different acne-prone skin types, including oily, combination, and mild inflammatory acne. A professional consultation assesses severity and selects appropriate techniques and products to ensure safe, effective results for your specific skin.

A single session typically lasts 60 to 75 minutes, including consultation, targeted exfoliation, extractions when necessary, soothing masks and post-treatment advice. Treatment time varies by skin condition and any additional therapies recommended during the assessment.

Some clients experience brief purging as deeper congestion is brought to the surface. This can last a few days to two weeks. We minimize this with gentle techniques and tailored homecare; follow-up visits and aftercare advice help manage and speed recovery.

Most clients see improvement after three to six treatments spaced four to six weeks apart. Exact frequency depends on acne severity, skin response and homecare adherence. Your therapist will create a personalized plan with measurable goals and timing.

You can often combine the facial with prescription acne medications, but always disclose topical or oral treatments during consultation. Some actives (retinoids, acids) require temporary pauses. We coordinate with your prescriber and adapt protocols for safety and best results.

Aftercare includes gentle cleansing, SPF daily, and avoiding harsh exfoliants or heavy makeup for 48–72 hours. Use recommended soothing serums and keep follow-up appointments. Proper homecare accelerates healing and maintains the facial's long-term benefits.
