Treatment overview
A deep cleansing facial is a thorough facial treatment designed to purify and revitalize the skin. This deep pore cleansing facial includes double cleansing, physical or chemical exfoliation, and manual deep pore cleansing, helping to clear clogged pores, remove dead skin cells, and promote a smooth, radiant complexion. The treatment is particularly suited to individuals struggling with non-inflamed acne and congested skin in Vancouver.
Really Deep Clean focuses on blackheads, closed comedones and congestion. We prepare the skin before extractions and work selectively: blockages that cannot be removed safely are left alone rather than forcing every pore clear. A calming mask and personalized finishing care complete the treatment. For more active breakout-prone skin, No More Acne is a distinct, longer protocol incorporating high frequency.

Is this treatment right for you?
Is this treatment right for you?
Really Deep Clean is primarily extraction-focused care for non-inflamed congestion, including blackheads and closed comedones. We assess which areas are appropriate for selective extraction rather than promising to clear every pore.
When persistent visible breakouts are the main concern, No More Acne is the distinct breakout-focused appointment. If you are unsure which pattern fits your skin, start with an Initial Consultation. Painful, broken, infected or very inflamed skin may need medical assessment before cosmetic care.

What to expect
Skin analysis
We examine your skin and discuss congestion, sensitivity and your current routine to decide how to prepare it for deep cleansing.
Double cleansing & exfoliation
Double cleansing removes makeup, surface oil and impurities. Physical or chemical exfoliation then loosens dead skin cells and prepares congested areas for the next step.
Professional extractions
We address suitable blackheads and closed comedones with manual extractions and, where appropriate, ultrasound-assisted cleansing or sterile professional extraction needles. The work is adapted to your skin and comfort; not every blockage should be removed in one visit.
Soothe & relax
A calming mask follows the cleansing work, with shoulder, arm and scalp massage and a warm towel foot wrap to help you relax.
Personalized finishing care
Products are selected for your freshly treated skin, followed by practical home-care guidance to support the results between visits.

What you may notice
After congestion is treated, skin may feel cleaner and smoother and look more even. Blackheads and closed comedones can improve with selective extraction and consistent home care, but not every blockage can safely be removed in one session.
For recurring congestion, a visit around every four to six weeks may be discussed. Frequency depends on oiliness, sensitivity and how your skin responds.
Recovery and downtime
Temporary redness, tenderness or small marks can occur after extractions. Redness may settle within a few hours, although sensitive skin or more involved extractions can take longer. Avoid booking immediately before an important event, especially if your reaction is not yet known.
Avoid picking, squeezing, waxing, or using unusually strong exfoliants before the appointment. Tell the practitioner about prescription acne products, retinoids, recent peels, and any area that is painful or broken. Arrive with a list of your regular products so routine factors can be discussed.
Keep hands away from treated areas, use a gentle cleanser and moisturizer, and apply daily sun protection. Avoid makeup for the first few hours and longer if advised for your skin. Do not pick at pores or scrub the freshly treated skin.
Follow the individual timeline for returning to strong exfoliants. Discuss prescription retinoids or acne medicines with the prescribing professional rather than changing them yourself. Contact the studio if irritation is stronger or lasts longer than expected.
Frequently asked questions
Not sure which treatment to choose?
Is this suitable for non-inflamed acne?
Yes, the focus is blackheads, closed comedones and congested, non-inflamed skin. We assess active inflammation and sensitivity before deciding which areas are suitable for extraction.
How is this different from No More Acne?
Really Deep Clean concentrates on pore cleansing, exfoliation and extractions. No More Acne is a longer breakout-focused appointment with high frequency as part of its protocol.
Will every comedone be removed?
No fixed number or complete clearance is promised. Some blockages are better left to avoid unnecessary trauma, and ongoing care may be needed.
Will my skin be red afterward?
Temporary redness or sensitivity can follow exfoliation and extractions. We explain the expected response and give guidance for gentle skincare and sun protection.
How often should I book a deep cleansing facial?
For recurring blackheads and congestion, around every four to six weeks may be appropriate. The plan depends on your skin's response and home routine, rather than removing every blockage at each visit.
Is this a blackhead removal facial in Vancouver?
Yes. At our Kitsilano studio, Really Deep Clean focuses on blackheads, closed comedones and non-inflamed congestion using preparation, selective extractions and calming care.
