It’s a skin treatment for the face that’s based on a classic facial but reworked in a way that aims to reduce the symptoms of acne.

Acne facials exclude procedures that could exacerbate acne symptoms, and use products and treatments that lower your skin’s oil production and reduce inflammation. The treatment begins by cleansing and exfoliating the skin to remove impurities, oil, and dead skin cells. Some dermatologists may incorporate chemical peels and light therapy; and some might extract whiteheads, blackheads and cysts. Acne facials are not recommended if you suffer with severe acne.

A regular facial focuses on general skin health and hydration, while an acne facial is specifically designed to target breakouts. It uses ingredients like salicylic acid, benzoyl peroxide, or tea tree oil, and may include extractions to clear congested pores.

You may feel discomfort during extractions but overall, your facial shouldn’t hurt.

An acne facial typically costs between £150 and £150 per session, depending on the provider and treatment depth. Fresha shows upfront pricing so you know exactly what you'll pay before booking.
