Think acne extractions are just about removing every breakout?
Not exactly.
Successful acne treatment is not about extracting everything you see. Some clogged pores should be removed, while others are better left untouched.
Improper extractions can lead to:
• increased post-inflammatory erythema (PIE)
• additional inflammation and breakouts
• skin barrier damage
• delayed healing
At Acne Clinic NYC, we use a specialized atraumatic extraction technique developed specifically for acne-prone skin. Our goal is to clear congestion while minimizing trauma and helping the skin reach remission faster.
Because when it comes to acne, technique matters just as much as the treatment itself.
We perform the right extractions - not the most extractions.
And we teach these methods to esthetic and medical professionals around the world.
