How do you distinguish between lesions that require extraction and conditions to avoid when extracting acne?

Hello. I am a 30-year-old woman concerned about acne and enlarged pores. While looking into acne skin care consultations, I became curious whether extraction is a necessary treatment for all skin troubles. I suspect that even if they look similar on the surface, the findings assessed by medical professionals will differ, so I would like to know the criteria before the consultation.

 

How do you determine whether extraction is necessary when there are areas that look like white comedones or raised red bumps? I would also like to ask if other medical treatments are needed before extraction if the area feels painful to the touch or hard deep within the skin. I am curious whether it is acceptable to choose extraction simply because pores are visible, and how simple sebum is distinguished from lesions requiring treatment during a medical examination.

 

If extraction is deemed appropriate, could I be informed in advance about the scope of treatment for a single session and the criteria for stopping? I would also like to be informed about the risk of scarring or wounds, the guidelines for resuming cleansing and makeup immediately after the treatment, and the symptoms that require me to contact them if redness persists. Rather than making a judgment based solely on the attached photos, I would like to carefully confirm through an in-person consultation whether this treatment is necessary for my skin.여드름 압출, 필요한 병변과 피해야 할 상태는 어떻게 구분하나요? I want to.

    사진만으로 압출 여부를 단정하기보다 직접 진료에서 병변의 종류와 염증 상태를 확인한 뒤 범위를 정하는 게 중요하겠어요. 특히 만졌을 때 아프거나 안쪽이 단단한 부위는 무리하게 건드리지 말고, 압출이 필요하다고 판단되면 중단 기준과 관리 후 세안·화장 시점, 자국이 오래갈 때 연락할 증상까지 미리 물어보면 좋겠습니다.

    압출도 기준이 있다는 걸 처음 알았어요, 이렇게 꼼꼼히 찾아보신 게 대단하네요. 만질 때 아프고 안쪽 단단한 건 굳이 건드리지 말라더라고요. 화장 다시 하는 시점이랑 자국 관리 기준까지 미리 여쭤보시면 시술 받고 나서도 마음 편하실 거예요!
