Acne Facials: Part 2

Acne facials

For many years, acne facials were hyped up to as a method to clear up acne scars and blackheads. Before you read more on about acne facials-, it is not a cure for acne and rarely helps the majority of individuals with this skin disorder.

During an acne facial, the therapist simply extracts the black head. By the way, you will get a nice facial steam bath with some aromatic oils and herbs. As always, these exotic herbs and oils will have been obtained from the Amazon rain forests, the Dead Sea or from the gall bladder of the hippopotamus (a bunch of BS).

To be fair to the acne facial treatments, the process does help get rid of excess oil, clean skin and help open up pores. Massage therapy should not be done during acne facials as it can worsen acne.

To make it look fancy and exotic, you will be treated with tender loving care and pay a fortune. You can extract the black head at home with a comedome extractor-, which costs less than $2. Acne facials do nothing for your acne, acne scars or nodular acne. Acne facials are just a gimmick and do nothing really significant.

Mucking around with pimples and squeezing them with instruments only leads to one thing worse than acne- acne scars. So if you have any common sense, forget acne facials.
