Blackheads are stubborn little dots that love to show up on your nose, chin, and forehead. They are a common frustration. But with the right treatment and ongoing care, they don’t have to stick around.
Blackheads, also known as open comedones, are a mild form of acne that occur when hair follicles become blocked with oil (sebum) and dead skin cells. The surface of the clogged pore stays open and exposed to air, which causes the debris to oxidise and darken, creating that familiar black dot. The dark colour isn’t dirt so harsh scrubbing won’t help (and can actually make things worse). What your skin really needs is professional, targeted care.
We offer professional blackhead removal treatments tailored to your skin’s needs for smoother, clearer, and more confident skin.
Whether you’ve got oily, dry, or sensitive skin, we personalise every session to work with your skin not against it.
We can also recommend professional-grade aftercare or over-the-counter solutions like salicylic acid, retinoids (adapalene), or gentle AHAs if needed between treatments.
We offer a range of luxurious, results-driven facial treatments designed to address your unique skin concerns and enhance your natural radiance. Whether you’re looking for a quick refresh or a deep, therapeutic treatment, our facials are tailored to suit all skin types and goals. Discover the perfect facial treatment for you and let us help you achieve glowing, healthy skin.
Microneedling is a straightforward yet highly effective treatment designed to rejuvenate your skin by stimulating natural collagen production. The microneedling device creates tiny, controlled micro-injuries in the skin, triggering a natural healing response that boosts collagen and elastin production.
The most effective and skin-safe way to remove blackheads is through professional extraction carried out by our specialist. We use steam, gentle exfoliation, and sterile tools to carefully remove congestion without damaging the skin. This method offers instant clarity and reduces the risk of scarring or infection that often comes with DIY attempts.
Not at all! Most of our clients describe the process as mildly uncomfortable at most. We always prep the skin with steam and softening products to make extractions as smooth and painless as possible. Your comfort is our priority throughout.
Pore strips may give you a temporary “quick fix” by removing the surface of a blackhead, but they don’t address what’s underneath. They can also irritate the skin or enlarge pores over time. If you’re serious about tackling blackheads properly, professional treatment is the safer and more effective choice.
We strongly advise against squeezing or picking blackheads yourself. This can push debris deeper into the skin, trigger inflammation, and even cause long-term scarring. Our specialists use sterile tools and the correct technique to remove blackheads safely and thoroughly.
To support your skin at home, look for ingredients like salicylic acid (to clear pores), adapalene (to regulate skin turnover), benzoyl peroxide (to reduce bacteria), and AHAs like glycolic acid (to exfoliate). We can recommend products suited to your skin after your treatment.
You’ll notice an immediate improvement in skin texture and clarity after professional extraction. For long-term skin health and fewer breakouts, we recommend regular treatments alongside a good home routine. OTC products usually take 6–8 weeks to show results, while our treatments offer faster, more targeted benefits.
It’s best to let your skin breathe for at least 24 hours after your treatment. If you need to wear makeup, stick to mineral-based, non-comedogenic products and always apply SPF. We can also advise on makeup that won’t clog your pores.
