When pores become congested with excess oil, dead skin cells and everyday impurities, the skin can begin to feel uneven, bumpy or prone to breakouts. Blackheads, blocked pores and congestion can make the complexion look less smooth and refined.
The Deep Extraction Facial focuses on thoroughly cleansing the pores and restoring balance to the skin. Using professional exfoliation and precise manual extraction techniques, congestion is carefully removed while protecting the surrounding skin.
As blocked pores are cleared, the complexion becomes smoother, fresher and more refined. Skin feels cleaner, pores appear clearer, and the overall texture of the skin improves.
Performed by experienced Level 4 skin specialists at Skinportant Clinic in Southsea, Portsmouth, this treatment forms part of our carefully developed age-based facial system, designed to support healthy, balanced skin at every stage of life.
We begin the treatment with a thorough yet gentle cleanse to remove makeup, impurities and excess oil from the skin. A cleanser is carefully selected to suit your skin type, ensuring the skin is perfectly prepared for the deeper cleansing stages of the facial.
If needed, we also perform a light professional exfoliation using microdermabrasion or a gentle acid peel. This step helps remove the build-up of dead skin cells, refine the skin’s surface and prepare the pores for the deep extraction process that follows.
During this stage, congested pores are carefully cleared using precise professional extraction techniques. Blackheads, whiteheads and other impurities are gently removed while the surrounding skin is protected and treated with care.
Working under careful magnification allows each pore to be addressed accurately, helping to thoroughly cleanse areas of congestion without causing unnecessary irritation to the skin.
By clearing these blockages, the skin can begin to rebalance. Pores appear cleaner, the complexion looks clearer and the overall texture of the skin feels smoother and more refined.
Following the extraction stage, we focus on restoring comfort and hydration to the skin. A deeply hydrating serum or treatment mask is applied to replenish moisture levels and help calm the skin after the extractions.
Rich in nourishing ingredients, this step supports the skin’s natural barrier while helping reduce sensitivity and restore balance. As hydration is replenished, the skin begins to feel softer, smoother and more comfortable.
This restorative stage helps improve elasticity and leaves the complexion looking fresh, balanced and naturally radiant.
To finish the treatment, we gently cool and calm the skin using either soothing ice globes or a cooling algae mask. This step helps reduce redness and calm the skin following the extraction stage.
The cooling effect helps the skin feel refreshed and comfortable while supporting the skin’s natural recovery process. As the skin settles, pores appear calmer and the complexion looks clearer, smoother and more balanced.
Finally, protective skincare and high-protection SPF are applied to help shield the skin from environmental stressors, leaving the complexion feeling clean, calm and beautifully refreshed.
