An acne facial is a professional skin treatment specifically designed for oily, breakout-prone, and congested skin. Unlike a standard facial — which focuses on hydration and glow — an acne facial uses targeted ingredients: salicylic acid, tea tree oil, kaolin clay to clear clogged pores, reduce active breakouts, and prevent future acne. At Angelite Esthetics, we use clean, botanical-grade skincare products free from synthetic fragrances, parabens, and pore-clogging fillers. Our acne facial is designed for all skin tones including Fitzpatrick types IV through VI — making it one of the most inclusive professional acne treatments in East York, Toronto.
| Feature | Acne Facial ($85) | Classic Facial ($75) |
|---|---|---|
| Best For | Oily, breakout-prone, congested skin | Normal, dry, combination skin |
| Primary Goal | Clear breakouts, unclog pores | Hydration, radiance, relaxation |
| Extractions | Extensive (the main focus) | Light or none |
| Key Ingredients | Salicylic acid, tea tree, clay | Hyaluronic acid, peptides, antioxidants |
| Post-Treatment | Mild redness (clears in hours) | Immediate glow, no redness |
| Frequency | Every 4 weeks for active acne | Every 4–6 weeks for maintenance |
Our professional acne facial is ideal for women with persistent blackheads and whiteheads that do not respond to at-home skincare, oily or combination skin prone to congestion and enlarged pores, hormonal breakouts along the jawline or chin, mild to moderate acne including comedones and pustules, and rough bumpy skin texture caused by clogged follicles. For severe cystic acne, we recommend combining esthetic treatments with dermatological care.
For active acne: every 4 weeks (monthly). The skin renews on a roughly 28-day cycle, and monthly facials keep pace with new congestion forming. For maintenance once breakouts are controlled: every 6 to 8 weeks. Combine with a gentle cleanser, niacinamide serum, non-comedogenic moisturizer, and SPF 30+ daily.
If your active acne has cleared but left pitted scars, rolling texture, or dark marks, microneedling at Angelite Esthetics ($249/session, face) is the most effective non-surgical treatment to rebuild collagen, smooth pitted scars, and even skin tone. Most acne scar clients need 4 to 6 sessions spaced 4 weeks apart. We also offer RF microneedling for enhanced tightening and scar reduction.
Does an acne facial hurt?
The extraction step can feel like a mild pinch — but steam prep and professional technique minimize discomfort. Most clients rate it 2 to 3 out of 10.
Will my skin break out more after an acne facial?
Some clients experience a brief purging period of 1 to 5 days after their first facial as deep congestion surfaces and clears. This is normal and a sign the treatment is working.
Can I get an acne facial if I use tretinoin?
Tell your esthetician. We recommend stopping retinoids 3 to 5 days before your appointment to prevent over-exfoliation.
Is an acne facial safe for dark skin tones?
Yes — our acne facial is safe for Fitzpatrick skin types I through VI. We avoid aggressive chemical peels that trigger PIH on deeper skin tones.
