Frequently Asked Questions
Get answers to common questions about Manual Extraction Add On.
The Manual Extraction Add On uses skilled, hygienic hands-on extractions to remove blackheads, whiteheads and congestion after cleansing and softening. Performed during your HydraFacial, it takes focused time on trouble areas, may cause mild redness, and enhances serum absorption and results.
Some temporary redness or slight swelling can occur immediately after extractions, especially on sensitive or acne-prone skin. Redness typically subsides within hours to a day; following aftercare, soothing serums, and our esthetician's gentle technique minimize irritation and promote quick recovery.
The add-on typically adds 10 to 20 minutes depending on congestion severity and targeted areas. Your esthetician will assess during consultation to determine appropriate time, ensuring thorough but comfortable extractions without rushing the process.
Yes, but we customize technique and pressure for sensitive skin and may limit areas treated. A thorough consultation and skin assessment determine suitability; topical numbing or calming serums can be used to increase comfort while preserving safety and effectiveness.
Avoid heavy makeup, sun exposure, saunas and aggressive exfoliation for 24 to 48 hours. Keep skin clean, use a gentle cleanser and calming hydrators provided, apply SPF during the day, and follow any personalized aftercare instructions to prevent irritation and support healing.
For most clients, monthly sessions coincide with HydraFacials to maintain clear pores. Those with heavy congestion may start with biweekly visits until improved. Your esthetician will recommend a personalized frequency based on skin type, oiliness, and acne history.
