Acne Clarifying Facial in Chicago
A hydrodermabrasion facial tailored for congested and acne-prone skin — deep cleansing, gentle peel, extractions, and clarifying serums.
Performed by Licensed Esthetician
— Overview —
What It Is
Our Acne Clarifying Facial is a hydrodermabrasion protocol customized for congested and acne-prone skin. It pairs deep cleansing, a gentle clarifying peel step, careful extractions, and targeted clarifying serums with non-comedogenic hydration — calming the skin while addressing the conditions that fuel breakouts. Our hydrofacial is performed using the CytoPeel system by Emage. A standard Acne Facial is also on our menu, for clients who want cleansing, extractions, and a clarifying routine without the suction-based step.
— The Experience —
How It Works
- 01
Deep Cleanse & Clarifying Peel
The skin is thoroughly cleansed and treated with a gentle clarifying step to loosen debris and prep congested areas.
- 02
Targeted Extractions
Suction-based extraction clears congestion from pores without aggressive manual squeezing, calming inflamed areas.
- 03
Clarifying Serum Infusion
Clarifying, soothing, and non-comedogenic hydrating serums are infused into the skin to balance and calm post-extraction.

Who It's For
Adults and teens with congested, oily, or acne-prone skin — including blackheads, whiteheads, and inflamed breakouts. Often paired with our Acne Treatment Program for ongoing management.
— Aftercare & Results —
What to Expect After
Skin may appear slightly pink and feel deeply cleansed. Avoid heavy makeup for several hours, use sunscreen daily, and stick to non-comedogenic skincare. Results often build with consistent visits as part of an acne-focused regimen.
