How long do you stay red after an acne facial with extraction?
Jul 10, 2008
Just had one today and it looked red with bumps, more acne looking than before the facial. How long will this last? The estheician told me to put ice on it twice a day to prevent from more breakout but after the extraction it already looked like I got more from the redness, how to repair this, how long do I’ve to wait?
Answer: The area is inflamed from the cleansing. If you are fair skinned it could last a few days. It is best that you stay out of the direct sun. Any moisturizers will only inflame the area and clog open pores. Ice is great , drink lots of water and cranberry juice. Avoid acidic drinks such as organge or tomato juice
