Facials

Facials, usually administered by an esthetician are commonly used to treat acne. Deep-cleansing facials can unclog pores and remove excess oil. During thie facial, which is usually administered at a spa or salon, the face is cleansed and gently exfoliated to remove dull, dead surface skin cells.

Although facials can make the face feel very fresh and clean, they do not address two major causes of acne, acne bacteria and overactive oil glands.
