What are Acne Facials?

Skin-kind acne facials at Aesthetics Labs are a range of facial treatments that cleanse, decongest, detoxify and heal the skin. They have been specially formulated to address the needs of acne-prone skin and relieve a range of associated issues.

We understand how hard it can be to find the right skincare treatments and products when you’re prone to spots, blemishes, blocked pores or scarring. You must use products that will not only relieve the symptoms but also help to address the root causes and protect your skin’s health in the future.

This is what our acne facials do. They are unique to Aesthetics Lab and include the popular ALab Clear Facial, which is formulated to destroy acne-causing bacteria, unblock your pores and regulate sebum production. It also reduces inflammation, refines open pores and can prevent the formation of scars. The result? Clearer, healthier and more balanced skin.

Transform your skin

Each of our acne facials has been formulated by our team of skin experts to pamper and treat your congested skin.

We use state-of-the-art cosmeceutical products throughout, which we can customise to suit your skin’s needs. As acne facials are deep cleansing and unblock your pores, the skincare products are able to enter the dermis where they can have the most impact on your skin’s ongoing health and healing.

After this treatment, you should see improvements in issues such as congestion, blackheads and acne.

Treatment step-by-step

Step 1: Consultation

Before any of our acne facials, we’ll talk to you about your skin health and daily skincare regimen. You’ll also have an in-depth skin assessment, which enables us to personalise your treatment. This includes identifying which decongesting peel would be best for your needs. You can do this by booking a consultation at one of our skin clinics in Belgravia and Primrose Hill.

Step 2: During your treatment

Our acne facials all broadly follow the same structure, but we’re going to look at the ALab Clear Facial here as this is often what we recommend for congested skin.

With an acne facial, you can just lie back and relax as we gently cleanse your skin. We’ll then apply a gentle but effective clarifying skin peel that’s designed for use on sensitive or damaged, inflamed skin.

We’ll take the peel off your skin after several minutes. As well as removing any dead skin cells, this peel will help to regulate your skin and destroy acne-causing bacteria, leading to ongoing improvements to your skin clarity post-treatment.
Next, we’ll carry out gentle extractions to unblock your pores. With your skin feeling fresher and healthier, you will then enjoy a light detoxifying and draining facial massage.

Finally, we use LED light therapy because it’s proven to have an anti-bacterial and anti-inflammatory healing effect on the skin. This will enhance your skin’s recovery and new balance.

Step 3: After the treatment

Thanks to LED Therapy at the end of this treatment, you should leave Aesthetics Lab with your skin glowing with health. We will apply moisturiser and sunscreen to your skin for added protection and then you’re free to carry on with your day.
Side effects are unlikely after acne facials at Aesthetics Lab because they’ve been designed with sensitive skin in mind. The LED light therapy helps to soothe your skin but if you do experience any redness, it should pass within an hour or two.

Your skin will look refreshed immediately, but you should notice ongoing improvements, especially a reduction in any spots, blocked pores or inflammation. We’ll give you clear aftercare information to prolong the benefits.

Frequently asked questions

Can I wear makeup after an acne facial?

We recommend going makeup free for 24 hours following your acne facial. If you do need to use makeup, opt for a mineral product as this won’t clog your pores.

Can you recommend any homecare products?

For the best results, we recommend a skincare routine in between your acne facials with us. We will discuss this with you during your appointment and can help you to choose the optimum homecare product(s) for your skin if needed.

How often can I have an acne facial?

Generally, we recommend having any of our acne facials every two to four weeks – this includes the ALab Clear Facial. Of course, we will always look at the condition of your skin and the concerns you want to treat before giving you an individual recommendation at your consultation.

  I recently had a facial at Aesthetics Lab, and I can say that without a doubt it was the best treatment I have ever received. From the consultation which was very thorough, in which we discussed each of my concerns in depth, to the facial itself, which was incredible. I have had many facials in the past and none of them have been of this high standard. I was then recommended some products which I purchased from the clinic and have been using ever since. They have done wonders for my skin, and I will definitely be returning! I cannot recommend Aesthetics Lab enough, the staff are so lovely and accommodating and the treatments are fantastic!

  Emma and the aesthetics lab team are INCREDIBLE! I very rarely write reviews, but I am so happy with my experience with Emma, that I have to! I have recently been trying to explore how to optimise my skin. This is all new to me, so I was a bit hesitant and unsure going into the process. Unfortunately, I had a very bad experience at a different clinic with a facial-gone-wrong, and am dealing with ongoing acne as a result. I had nearly lost hope that skincare could be for me, but then I found Aesthetics lab!

Carolyn helped me with my initial consultation. She was very welcoming and empathetic to my situation, making me feel very comfortable. I had my first session the same day with Emma. I did a light treatment and the experience was fantastic. Emma immediately made me feel comfortable. She understood the concerns and hesitations that I had and was very patient answering my many questions. I felt very calm and could tell how experienced she was. I had such a great experience that I booked again and came back for my second treatment with Emma that same week. This time I got a hydra facial. It was again, a fantastic experience. I was so impressed with all of her knowledge on how the products work, her advice on what my skin might respond best to, and her understanding and empathy towards my situation. I really trust her and the advice that she gave towards my skincare routine. I have already seen improvements and am telling my friends to book their appointments with Emma! She is truly the best!

  I have recently finished a course of Laser Hair Removal with Aesthetics Lab and could not recommend it enough , from the moment I walked in the staff were so welcoming and professional. The clinic itself is accessible, modern and exceptionally clean.

I had 6 sessions targeting under my arms and legs which was painless and really effective with no redness or rashes which I have previously experienced when waxing, my only regret is I didn't visit sooner!!

  The staff are very welcoming and professional, and have made me feel at ease and relaxed during treatments. The clinic itself is lovely and clean, and clearly looks like it's kept up to a high standard. Ive had two treatments here so far, eyebrow semi permanent tattoo with Charli and laser hair removal with Charlotte and both therapists have been knowledgeable, experienced, and friendly, and I've been very pleased with the results of the treatments.
