Our approach is all about achieving remarkable results while preserving the skin’s integrity. We prioritize infection control, employing sterile probes, gloves, and meticulously prepped skin.

Our extraction facials are a remedy for all types of acne, ranging from stubborn blackheads to inflamed breakouts.

Why We Swear by Extractions
While there are many paths to clear skin, we are firm believers in the extraction method for tackling congestion. Why? Because it gets the job done. Unlike harsh peels or microdermabrasion, which only skim the surface, our technique clears pores at their core.
The Shine Method: Your Path to Flawlessness
For those seeking an in-depth experience, we dedicate up to 45 minutes for extractions, ensuring thorough clearance and expedited results. Throughout, we  place utmost emphasis on your skin’s health and structure.
Unlike other methods that risk scarring due to excess pressure, we don’t use metal tools, relying on our gentle yet effective technique.
How Many Facials?
For blackheads we recommend facials every 4 weeks to keep blackheads in check, ensuring they remain smaller and less prominent. Deeper congestion and pimples require a series of facials, usually 3-4 weeks apart initially, tapering off as your skin gains control. quite bad acne and cystic acne may necessitate more frequent visits, perhaps once every two weeks, coupled with LED light therapy for comprehensive results.
Recovery
If only blackheads and whiteheads you will have no recovery time, if any pimples, redness may fade within 1-2 hours. More inflamed acne could result in residual redness through the night. Your personal wound healing process dictates recovery, which can span 1-5 days based on factors like health, stress, skincare routine, and skin health.
Breakouts after facials? We are proactive in minimizing this possibility through meticulous pre- and post-extraction care.
