Hello!
I am Dr. Hwang Bo-hwang, Director of Cleor Clinic Gangnam.
"I never used to worry about acne,
but these days, looking in the mirror every morning is stressful."
This is a story I hear very often in the consultation room. And they always say this too.
"I squeezed it a bit with my hand last night… I think it's even redder now."
That's right. The reason why you search for Gangnam acne extraction,
mostly starts here.
I know I shouldn't squeeze it with my hands, but if I leave it alone, it feels like it'll get bigger,
and I worry about it every day in between.
Today, I'll explain very simply why Gangnam acne extraction is different from 'just squeezing it',
how it's done, and who needs it.
What is acne extraction?
Acne extraction is a procedure to safely remove
sebum, waste, and pus accumulated in the skin.
What happens if you squeeze it yourself at home?
At first, it seems to come out clean.
But
the next day, it's redder and wider.Thenext day, a scab forms, and it remains as pigmentation.
In the end, you end up with a lifelong scar trying to squeeze one pimple.Gangnam acne extraction performed at a dermatology clinicuses sterilized, dedicated instruments to minimize skin damage
and accurately remove only waste.
Even though it looks like the same 'squeezing act', the results are worlds apart.
Why should I get it done at a dermatology clinic?
① Inflammation subsides quickly
Removing pus and sebum from the skin in a timely manner reduces swelling and
redness noticeably quickly.
The recovery speed is significantly different than if left untreated.
② Prevents scars and pigmentation
The longer acne remains, the higher the chance of pigmentation or
sunken scars.
By cleanly treating it at the right time through Gangnam acne extraction,
these aftereffects can be greatly reduced.
③ Pores are cleared
If sebum and dead skin cells continue to clog pores,
acne is bound to recur.
Clearing the pores with extraction cleanses the skin texture,
and also lowers the possibility of recurrence.
④ Skin confidence returns
A psychological change is as important as the procedure's effect.
After the skin is cleared, many people say, "I can go out without a mask now."
I feel really proud when I hear that ^^
⚠️
Precautions
Not all acne is subject to extraction.
Early acne that hasn't filled with sebum yet, ordeep cystic acne, may be more effectively treated with other treatments than extraction.
Sunscreen
Sunscreen is essential on the day of extraction.
The skin barrier is weakened, making it prone to pigmentation.
No heavy makeup
Avoid heavy makeup on the day of the procedure.Cosmetic ingredients can be irritating when pores are open.
Do not touch with your hands
People often touch their faces unconsciously,
which is the most common cause of bacterial infection or recurrence after extraction.
Gangnam acne extraction is not a one-time procedure.
It is much more effective to manage it periodically depending on the skin condition.
Frequently Asked Questions (FAQ)
Q. Is it very painful?
Because we proceed after sufficiently opening the pores with steaming,
some people say it's not as painful as they thought.
However, if the skin is dry, deep, and severely inflamed acne may cause
a stinging sensation.
Q. It gets redder after extraction, is that okay?
Temporary redness immediately after extraction is a normal reaction.
In many cases, it subsides within a few hours after receiving soothing care,
and most people can see much clearer skin the next day.
Q. How many times do I need to get it?
It depends on the skin condition, but usually an interval of 2-4 weeks is appropriate.
Many people feel a clear difference with just 1-2 sessions.
Q. Are there any procedures that are good to receive together?
IPL, Agnes, and medication to treat the cause of acne,
can be combined to maintain the extraction effect for much longer.
We will provide a customized plan upon consultation depending on your skin condition.
Q. Can I receive it during my period?
The skin is more sensitive during this period, so it may be more sensitive to irritation.
We recommend coming 2 weeks before or after menstruation, when your skin condition is stable.
