I'm still debating whether I really need to get extractions done when I get acne treatments.
To be honest, just hearing the word "extraction" makes me a little scared, haha.
My skin isn't smooth and I have recurring breakouts, so I want to try acne treatment, but I'm hesitant because I've seen many reviews saying that red marks are left after extraction.
I know I shouldn't touch it with my hands, so I try to hold back as much as possible these days. However, if I leave it as is, the bumpy feeling lingers, and it bothers me even more when I do my makeup.
So I'm wondering if they always start with extraction when you get acne treatment.
Depending on the skin condition, are there cases where management focuses on sebum control or soothing rather than excessive extraction?
I'm worried about the pain, but I'm even more scared that my skin might become more sensitive after the treatment lol.
I am also curious if you can feel your skin texture becoming smooth immediately after extraction.
On the other hand, my skin actually looks bumpy or red on the day I squeeze it, so I also want to know how many days it takes for it to get better.
When receiving acne treatment, are there cases where extraction is performed in several sessions rather than doing a large amount at once?
If you have sensitive skin like me, I think it would be better to take it slow.
I am also curious about how long I should take a break from makeup after extraction.
I can't go without makeup at all on weekdays, so I'm wondering if it would be better to get it done before the weekend.
If anyone has consistently received acne treatments focused on extraction, I am curious if it hurts at first but you get used to it.
I would like to know if, after receiving it a few times, there is less to extract, making management feel a bit easier.
Rather than getting it clean right now, I'd like the recurring bumps to decrease.
For those of you who hesitated to get acne treatment because of the extraction process, please honestly let me know how it went after actually trying it haha.

I'm worried about dryness and redness on my cheeks in late autumn. What kind of care would be best?[6]
CommentsIt seems wise of you to be cautious with exfoliation when your cheeks feel tight and red due to the heating. I would also like to take your advice on whether I should consult about soothing care or a skin booster first.220026.11.03 - 03CommentsIt’s amazing that you’ve consistently managed with just soothing care without touching your hands. I’ll check the reply when it comes up regarding whether the extraction comes first or if the peeling is done together.200026.11.03

- 03CommentsIt would be difficult to determine the required number of sessions from the start, as it varies depending on the level of inflammation, the presence of scars, and management goals. It would make comparisons easier if you asked about the timing of the interim evaluation and the criteria for modifying the plan during the consultation.530026.10.28

- 02CommentsI imagine you are really curious if you can manage both blackheads and acne at the same time. It would be a good idea to consult with them to see if they can be treated together after assessing your skin condition.710026.10.25
- 03CommentsI get breakouts on my chin before and after my period exactly the same way, so it really feels like I'm on the same page. During your consultation, please ask about the best order to manage the current inflammation and remaining marks, as well as available time slots after work!1310026.10.25
