Comedone Extraction

During a comedone extraction, specialised extractor tools are used with a aseptic technique to gently release clogged pores, ensuring minimal discomfort and reducing the risk of irritation. The procedure typically takes up to 30 minutes, with specific areas of concern being addressed. While mild discomfort may occur, the process is generally well-tolerated, and pain is usually minimal.
