Anti-Acne Back Treatment

The Anti-Acne Back Treatment is designed for congestion, breakouts, clogged pores, rough texture, and post-breakout marks on the back. Because back acne can be difficult to reach and manage with home care alone, this treatment combines deep cleansing, exfoliation, extractions, high frequency, LED support, customized peels, and calming masks to help purify the skin and support a clearer, smoother-looking back.

frequent questions

Is there downtime?

Most clients do not need major downtime, though skin may look temporarily pink after extractions, exfoliation, or peel steps. Your provider will explain aftercare based on the protocol used that day.

What skin concerns is this good for?

This treatment is designed for back acne, clogged pores, blackheads, rough texture, excess oil, and post-breakout marks.

How many treatments are recommended?

Back acne usually improves best with consistency. Your provider may recommend a series of treatments along with supportive home care depending on the severity of congestion and breakouts.

Can the service be changed at the time of the appointment?

Yes, if you and your provider agree that another service would better fit your skin condition that day, most services can be adjusted or swapped at the time of your visit.
