If you find yourself constantly battling stubborn blackheads or feeling like your skin is ‘suffocating’ under the Florida sun, this treatment is your breath of fresh air. It is specifically designed to tackle the deep-seated congestion that standard cleansers just can’t reach.
Ideal for skin with visible blackheads, whiteheads, and a bumpy texture that feels rough to the touch.
Perfect for managing non-inflamed acne and preventing future breakouts by keeping pores clear of debris.
Great for those with excess sebum production who need a professional reset to balance oil levels.
From clogged to clear: your journey to a breathable complexion
Your visit to Skin Lounge Med Spa begins with a warm welcome and a cool beverage. We start with a thorough skin analysis under a magnifying lamp to map out areas of congestion and determine the sensitivity level of your skin.
We cleanse your skin to remove surface oils and makeup. Next, warm steam is applied to soften the pores and loosen debris. This step is crucial—think of it as unlocking the door before we walk in. We may apply an enzyme exfoliant during this stage to further dissolve dead skin cells.
Using sanitized techniques, wrapped fingers, or ultrasonic tools, your esthetician gently clears blocked pores. We focus on blackheads and non-inflamed whiteheads. While you may feel slight pressure, we prioritize the integrity of your skin to prevent scarring.
Post-extraction, the skin needs to settle. We apply a soothing, antibacterial high-frequency treatment or a cooling mask to reduce redness and inflammation. Finally, we layer on hydration and SPF to protect your freshly cleared pores as you step back out into Boca Raton.
Customized levels of deep cleaning to suit your skin's needs
A focused 30-minute session targeting the T-zone (forehead, nose, chin). This is strictly business—ideal for teenagers or those needing a quick maintenance clean-out between larger treatments.
Our standard 60-minute treatment. Includes full-face extractions, double cleansing, steam, enzymatic exfoliation, and a custom calming mask. Best for monthly maintenance and general congestion.
A 90-minute complete service. Includes everything in the Signature tier plus LED Light Therapy to help reduce acne-causing bacteria and a hydro-jelly mask to drastically reduce post-extraction redness.
Blue light kills P. acnes bacteria, while red light reduces inflammation and speeds up restoring—highly recommended after heavy extractions.
A cooling, electrolyte-infused mask that lowers the skin’s temperature and locks in moisture immediately after treatment.
An electrical current treatment that generates oxygen to kill bacteria deep within the pore and prevent post-facial breakouts.
Removal of vellus hair (peach fuzz) and dead skin cells before extractions to allow for easier removal of debris.
Transparent pricing for your path to clarity

If you want to extend your visit, ask about a customized facial plan, gentle peel support, or another appropriate skin care service. We will recommend only what fits your skin goals, comfort level, and schedule.
It can be slightly uncomfortable, but it shouldn't be painful. Sensations vary depending on how impacted the pores are and your personal pain threshold. We use steam to soften the skin first to minimize discomfort.
Some redness is normal immediately following manual extractions, similar to a post-workout flush. This typically subsides within a few hours to a day, especially with our calming aftercare protocols.
We recommend waiting at least 12 to 24 hours before applying makeup. Your pores are open and clean; applying makeup immediately can re-clog them and cause irritation.
For acne-prone or congested skin, every 4 to 6 weeks is ideal. This aligns with your skin's natural cell turnover cycle and prevents debris from building up again.
We use a combination based on the type of impaction. We may use sanitized stainless steel loop extractors for specific blackheads and wrapped fingers for general clearing, ensuring minimal trauma to the skin.
Generally, we do not extract deep, inflamed cystic acne as this can spread bacteria and cause scarring. We focus on blackheads and non-inflamed whiteheads, using other modalities to calm cysts.
Mild purging can happen as deep impurities are brought to the surface. This is usually a sign the treatment is working, and it should clear up within a few days.
You should avoid direct sun exposure for at least 48 hours. Freshly exfoliated and extracted skin is more sensitive to UV rays, so a hat and high-SPF sunscreen are non-negotiable in Boca.
Discontinue use of retinol or specialized exfoliation creams 3-5 days before your facial. Arrive with a clean face if possible, though we will cleanse it regardless.
