Temporary redness or mild purging can occur after extractions, but long-term breakouts typically improve as pores are cleared. We use soothing serums and post-care guidance to minimize irritation. Contact us if persistent worsening or severe redness develops.

For maintenance, schedule the treatment every 4–6 weeks depending on activity level and skin concerns. Athletes or frequent gym-goers may benefit from biweekly sessions initially. Your esthetician will create a personalized plan based on progress and skin response.
