At April Beauty, our acne treatments are designed to deeply cleanse congested skin, safely remove blackheads and whiteheads, and support clearer, calmer skin while protecting the skin barrier.

Acne is a common skin condition that occurs when hair follicles become clogged with oil (sebum), dead skin cells, and bacteria. It can appear as blackheads, whiteheads, pimples, inflamed breakouts, or cysts.

Treatment Focus & Benefits

Targeted acne care for congestion, breakouts, extraction, and skin recovery

Common triggers

Excess oil production, blocked pores, bacteria buildup, hormonal changes, stress, unsuitable skincare, and certain cosmetics may all contribute to acne.

Deep cleansing support

Professional cleansing, exfoliation, and steam help loosen congestion, clear buildup, and prepare the skin for safer, more effective extraction.

Professional extraction

Sterile acne extraction is performed with precision to remove blackheads, whiteheads, and clogged pores while minimising trauma and reducing the risk of scarring.

LED light therapy add-on

Blue light LED therapy may be added after extraction to calm redness, reduce inflammation, target acne-causing bacteria, and support faster healing.

For mild to advanced acne

Treatment options range from maintenance-focused deep cleansing facials to more intensive sessions for severe congestion, inflamed acne, and recurring breakouts.

Package options available

Courses of treatment are available for long-term improvement and ongoing congestion control, especially for acne-prone skin.

Aftercare matters

Gentle aftercare, hydration, sun protection, and avoidance of active ingredients help the skin recover well after treatment.

Dermalux LED add-on

Add on LED Phototherapy: 15 mins — $35. The Dermalux Flex MD combines blue, red, and near-infrared light for safe, non-invasive support.

How It Works

Deep Cleansing, Extraction & Recovery Support

Your treatment begins with a professional double cleanse and skin preparation to remove makeup, excess oil, dirt, impurities, and surface dead skin cells. A gentle steam is then applied to soften congestion and prepare the skin for extraction.

Once the skin is ready, blackheads, whiteheads, and clogged pores are carefully extracted using sterile professional tools. For enhanced recovery, LED light therapy can be added to calm post-extraction sensitivity, support healing, and help prevent future breakouts.

Consultation & Skin Assessment

Everyone’s skin is different. A professional assessment helps determine the most suitable treatment plan, package frequency, and aftercare support for your skin condition.

Frequently Asked Questions

Acne can be influenced by excess oil production, dead skin cell buildup, bacteria, hormonal changes, stress, skincare habits, and certain cosmetics or skincare products.

This treatment includes professional double cleansing, skin analysis, mild salicylic acid exfoliation, gentle steaming, targeted sterile extraction, a soothing treatment mask, and oil-control finishing products.

The 90-minute Advanced Acne Treatment is recommended for first-time extraction clients, severe congestion, inflamed acne, and recurring breakouts that need deeper correction and additional recovery support.

Yes. LED phototherapy can be added to any acne treatment to help reduce acne-causing bacteria, calm redness and inflammation, accelerate healing, and support barrier repair.

Before your acne treatment

Avoid retinol, AHAs, BHAs, and exfoliating products for 3–5 days before treatment. Avoid waxing, laser, or strong peels for 1 week, and do not pick or squeeze active acne before your appointment.

After your acne treatment

Your skin may be slightly red or sensitive for 24–48 hours. Avoid touching treated areas, avoid makeup if possible for 24 hours, skip sauna, gym, and excessive sweating for 24 hours, and avoid active ingredients for 3–5 days.

Recovery support

Keep the skin hydrated, use a gentle moisturiser, apply SPF daily, and follow your recommended homecare routine to support healing and maintain clearer skin over time.

What Is Acne?

Acne is a common skin condition that occurs when hair follicles become clogged with oil (sebum), dead skin cells, and bacteria. It can appear as blackheads, whiteheads, pimples, inflamed breakouts, or cysts.

Acne most commonly affects the face, but it can also develop on the back, chest, and shoulders. It may occur at any age — not just during teenage years.

Understanding Your Skin

What Causes Acne?

Excess oil production
Blocked pores from dead skin cells
Bacteria buildup
Hormonal changes
Stress
Poor skincare habits
Certain cosmetics or skincare products

Everyone's skin is different, which is why professional assessment and personalised treatment are important.

Know Your Breakouts

There are various types of pimples

01
Whiteheads

Remain under the skin and are very small.

02
Blackheads

Clearly visible, they are black and appear on the surface of the skin. Remember that a blackhead is not caused by dirt. Scrubbing your face vigorously when you see blackheads will not help.

03
Papules

Visible on the surface of the skin. They are small bumps, usually pink.

04
Pustules

Clearly visible on the surface of the skin. They are red at their base and have pus at the top.

05
Nodules

Clearly visible on the surface of the skin. They are large, solid pimples. They are painful and are embedded deep in the skin.

06
Cysts

Clearly visible on the surface of the skin. They are painful, and are filled with pus. Cysts can easily cause scars.

Our Process — Step by Step

How Does Acne Extraction Treatment at April Beauty Work?

Our acne extraction treatment is designed to deeply cleanse the skin, safely remove congestion, and support faster healing — all while protecting your skin barrier.

Step 01

Deep Cleansing & Skin Preparation

Your treatment begins with a professional deep cleansing facial to remove makeup, excess oil, dirt and impurities, and surface dead skin cells. This step helps clear pores that are clogged but have not yet formed acne, reducing the risk of future breakouts.

A gentle steam (approximately 5 minutes) is then applied to soften dead skin cells and loosen congestion, allowing for safer and more effective extraction.

Step 02

Professional Acne Extraction

Once the skin is fully prepared, we carefully treat existing blackheads, whiteheads, and clogged pores. Using sterile professional tools, we gently apply controlled pressure around the acne lesion to bring impurities to the surface.

Unlike topical treatments that take time to work, professional extraction provides immediate removal of pore blockages, helping your skin feel smoother and less congested right away. Our technique is performed with precision to minimise trauma and reduce the risk of scarring.

Step 03 — Optional Add-On

LED Light Therapy

After extraction, we recommend LED phototherapy — usually blue light — to calm and protect the skin.

LED therapy helps to reduce redness and inflammation, calm post-extraction sensitivity, promote faster healing, target acne-causing bacteria (P. acnes), and help prevent future breakouts.

Blue light has antibacterial properties that assist in reducing acne-causing bacteria while supporting clearer skin over time.
