An acne-reducing treatment that targets bacteria, inflammation and dehydration to keep breakouts at bay.

Acne Facial Treatment with Dermalogica’s Active Clearing products specifically controls the triggers of inflammation or breakouts, while relieving the irritation and redness that plagues blemish-prone skin. This special skin care helps to normalize the skin’s sebum production, clears clogged follicles and inhibits inflammatory bacteria. The treatment employs the use of exfoliating acids to help clear clogged follicles and smooth away dullness that contributes to visible skin aging.

After first evaluating your skin and asking about your skin concerns, the facial begins with a signature double cleanse. We pre-cleanse the face once with the pre-cleanse followed by the calming cleanser, using light stroking movements and little pressure, taking care not to over- stimulate the skin. Next we begin to addresses acne with a combination of peels, masks, serums, oils and moisturizers, and decongests the skin with exfoliation and extractions. They help control bacterial growth while balancing sebum production and exfoliating dead skin cells. We use professional grade serums containing acids such as: AHAs, BHAs, salicylic acid, beta hydroxic acids, and glycolic acids. These provide exfoliating, anti-inflammatory, antiseptic, antibacterial and soothing properties. They also aids in fading dark spots and acne scarring, and helps prevent further breakouts. After the peel, we apply a soothing face mask, which helps refine pores and absorb excess oil, thanks to ingredients including safflower oil extract, kaolin and niacinamide. The mask is removed, and the facial concludes with a layer of serum and moisturizer.

It detoxifies skin, clears pore congestion, and contains calming botanicals to help soothe aggravation brought on by breakouts.
