What is a deep cleansing facial?

A deep cleansing facial at Dr. Ducu Clinics is a comprehensive skincare treatment designed to thoroughly clean and rejuvenate your skin. This procedure involves a combination of steaming, exfoliation, and extractions to remove impurities, unclog pores, and eliminate dead skin cells.

We also incorporate LED therapy to stimulate collagen production, enhancing skin elasticity and promoting a youthful glow. We complete the treatment with a soothing mask and hydration to restore your skin’s natural balance and radiance. Ideal for all skin types, especially those prone to acne or congestion, our deep cleansing facial leaves your complexion refreshed, clear, and glowing.

Why have deep pore cleansing facial?

A deep pore cleansing facial is essential for maintaining healthy, clear skin and addressing various skin conditions. This treatment effectively removes impurities, unclogs pores, and eliminates dead skin cells, making it ideal for those struggling with acne, blackheads, whiteheads, and congestion.

Additionally, it helps reduce excess oil production, minimises the appearance of enlarged pores, and prevents future breakouts. By incorporating exfoliation and extraction techniques, followed by soothing and hydrating steps, a deep pore cleansing facial at Dr. Ducu Clinics promotes a balanced, radiant complexion.

The deep cleansing facial procedure

1. The peel

The deep pores facial begins with a gentle peel, which involves applying an exfoliating solution to the skin. This step helps to remove dead skin cells and surface impurities, preparing the skin for deeper cleansing and allowing subsequent treatments to penetrate more effectively.

2. The extraction

After the peel, we perform the extractions to unclog pores and remove blackheads, whiteheads, and other impurities. This process involves carefully extracting debris from the pores, reducing congestion, and preventing future breakouts. We do it with precision to minimise discomfort and ensure skin clarity.

3. The hydration

Following the extraction, we will apply a hydrating mask or serum to soothe and nourish your skin. This step helps to restore moisture balance, calm any irritation from the extraction process, and enhance the skin’s overall hydration, leaving it soft and supple.

4. The LED Light Therapy

The final step is LED light therapy, where we use specific wavelengths of light to stimulate collagen production, reduce inflammation, and promote skin healing. This non-invasive treatment enhances skin elasticity, reduces fine lines, and provides a radiant, youthful glow. The LED therapy also helps to kill acne-causing bacteria, further preventing breakouts.

Benefits of deep pore cleansing facial

Deep cleansing facial London - Frequently asked questions

Yes, you can have a deep cleansing facial if you have acne. In fact, a deep cleansing facial is highly beneficial for acne-prone skin as it helps to remove impurities, unclog pores, and reduce inflammation.

A deep cleansing facial is generally not painful, but some parts of the procedure, such as extractions, might cause mild discomfort, especially if you have sensitive skin or a lot of congestion. However, most of our patients find the exfoliation, hydration, and LED light therapy steps to be quite soothing and relaxing.

You will see the effects of a deep cleansing facial immediately after the treatment. Your skin should look and feel cleaner, fresher, and more radiant right away. Pore size may appear reduced, and any redness or inflammation from extractions should subside within a few hours to a day. The full benefits, such as improved skin texture, clarity, and hydration, become more apparent over the next few days.

The effects of a deep cleansing facial can last for several weeks, depending on your skin type, skincare routine, and environmental factors. Typically, the immediate benefits, such as clearer pores, smoother texture, and a radiant glow, can be noticeable for about one to two weeks. To maintain these results, we recommend having a deep cleansing facial every four to six weeks. Incorporating a consistent at-home skincare regimen with proper cleansing, moisturising, and sun protection can also help prolong the benefits of the facial.

A deep cleansing facial is generally safe, but potential risks and side effects include temporary redness, irritation, and mild swelling, particularly after extractions. Some individuals may experience breakouts as impurities are brought to the surface, while others might notice temporary dryness or peeling due to exfoliation. Allergic reactions to products used during the facial are possible, so informing us of any known allergies is crucial.

 After a deep cleansing facial, it is important to avoid strenuous exercise, direct sun exposure, hot showers and baths, and heavy makeup for at least 24 to 48 hours. These activities can irritate freshly treated skin and impede the healing process. Additionally, refrain from using harsh skincare products like exfoliants and retinoids to prevent further irritation.

A deep pore cleansing facial is contraindicated for individuals with active skin infections, severe acne flare-ups, open wounds, or skin conditions such as eczema or rosacea. It is also not recommended for those with highly sensitive skin that reacts easily to treatments or products, and for individuals who have recently undergone other aggressive skin treatments, such as chemical peels or laser therapy. Pregnant or breastfeeding women should consult their healthcare provider before undergoing the procedure to ensure it is safe for them.

We recommend to have a deep cleansing facial every four to six weeks to maintain optimal skin health and appearance. This frequency allows your skin to undergo its natural regeneration process, ensuring that the benefits of the facial are maximised. However, it’s also important to listen to your skin as some individuals with sensitive skin or specific conditions might benefit from a longer interval between treatments. Taking breaks as needed ensures that your skin remains healthy and does not become over-exfoliated or irritated.

Yes, you can combine a deep cleansing facial with other procedures to enhance overall skin health and achieve more comprehensive results. Popular combinations include Hydrafacial for intense hydration or microdermabrasion for deeper exfoliation. Mild chemical peels can also be added to address specific skin concerns like pigmentation and fine lines. We will recommend what is best for you.
