Facial Extractions: Beauty From The Inside Out

What are Facial Extractions? And aren’t they just part of a facial?

Yes. And No (I’m sorry to do that to you)! Firstly, an extraction is the process of clearing clogged or compacted pores (manually, most gently and naturally with Prana) or sometimes through the use of microdermabrasion devices.

With Facial Extractions though, we are going a little deeper to deal with accumulated subcutaneous tissue: pimples, blackheads, whiteheads, clogged pores and teen ‘breakouts’; all of which inhibit the results of a facial procedure.

The thing is: attention to detail always matters

Think of it this way: imagine you’re out shopping for a special dress. There it is on the rack, enticing. You try it on (naturally). But it has been “thrown together” as my ultra-critical girlfriend is apt to say. And all too often she has a point. It doesn’t sit the way it should, and there is something shabby about it…

It is just the same with Extractions – with Facials we will always look and feel more beautiful but if there is something not so good lurking just under the surface it will always tell. It is (like our dress) a matter of attention to detail and the quest for beauty from the inside out.

I hope that helps… Saroj
