Before & After: Treating Blemished Skin

Real results. No filters!

Problem
Blackheads, clogged pores, or an oily T-zone tend to build up over years, and drugstore products alone rarely make a lasting difference.
Solution
Professional extraction, HydraFacial, JetPeel, or chemical peels support visibly clearer skin — they don't treat a skin condition like acne.
Sessions
The right number depends on your skin and your at-home routine, and gets set individually after your skin analysis.

How a Blemished Skin Treatment Works at AFACIAL

3 steps to clearer skin

  1. Afacialist examining a client's face - skin analysis before pigmentation treatment in Vienna

    Skin analysis & consultation

    Our Afacialists take a close look at your skin and assess whether you're dealing with blemishes, combination skin, or more likely, inflammatory acne. We'll also talk through your current routine and what you're hoping to achieve.

  2. Therapist applying an exfoliating mask with a brush during a deep pore cleansing facial

    Your personalized treatment

    Depending on your skin's condition, we'll use professional extraction, HydraFacial, JetPeel, or a chemical peel. If you have active inflammatory acne, we won't use HydraFacial, since it can irritate the skin further.

  3. Hand holding an SPF skincare product - aftercare after blackhead removal in Vienna

    Aftercare & recommendations

    After your treatment, you'll get a homecare plan for the following weeks, including sun protection. We'll also walk you through what results are realistic and when a follow-up session makes sense.

Blemished Skin or Acne – What's Really Going On?

Blemished skin shows up as blackheads, clogged pores, an oily T-zone, or the occasional breakout. Common triggers are excess oil production, hormonal shifts, stress, or a skincare routine that isn't right for your skin type. Inflamed pustules or painful cysts, on the other hand, point to acne vulgaris and need to be checked by a doctor.

At AFACIAL, we're a skin studio, not a medical clinic. With professional extraction, HydraFacial, JetPeel, and chemical peels, we support your skin when you're dealing with blemishes and blackheads. If what you're dealing with looks more like active, inflammatory acne, we'll tell you honestly and point you toward a dermatologist.

Why a professional treatment helps

  1. Visibly clearer skin

    Treatments can help visibly reduce blackheads and clogged pores, leaving your skin feeling more balanced overall. Many clients report a noticeably smoother texture after just a few sessions.

  2. Deep pore cleansing, done properly

    Before extraction, your skin is prepped so clogged pores can be cleared gently and thoroughly. It's a more careful process than picking at your skin at home — and easier on your skin, too.

  3. Minimal downtime

    Our treatments are non-invasive and fit easily into your routine. You might notice some light redness right after, but you can usually go about your day as normal.

  4. Honest, tailored to you

    Blemished skin, combination skin, and acne all need different approaches. That's why your Afacialist assesses your skin before every treatment and gives you a realistic read on what actually makes sense for you — or whether seeing a dermatologist first is the better move.

Four benefits of treating blemished skin

  • Clarity

    Fewer blackheads, clearer pores

  • Complexion

    Finer, more balanced texture

  • Gentle

    More thorough than squeezing at home

  • Everyday

    Minimal downtime

Visibly clearer skin starts here — with your AFACIAL treatment in Vienna.

Questions About Blemished Skin Treatment: Our Expertise for Your Skin

Why do I have blemished skin?

Blemished skin usually comes down to excess oil production combined with a buildup of dead skin cells, which clogs pores and forms blackheads. Common triggers include hormonal changes, stress, harsh or unsuitable skincare, and certain medications. If your skin suddenly gets a lot worse, it’s worth getting that checked by a doctor before booking a treatment with us.

What's the difference between blemished skin and acne?

Blemished skin shows up as blackheads, clogged pores, and the occasional breakout, but it isn’t a medical condition. Acne vulgaris is a skin condition involving inflamed pustules, papules, or cysts, and can leave scarring. Cosmetic treatments make sense for blemished skin — active acne needs to be looked at by a doctor first.

What does professional extraction or a chemical peel actually do?

Chemical peels containing salicylic acid have been shown to help reduce blackheads. A randomized study on people with comedonal (non-inflammatory) acne found that after six peel sessions spaced two weeks apart, non-inflammatory blemishes dropped by roughly 48–56% (Journal of Cosmetic Dermatology, study on PubMed). The study compared a salicylic acid peel with a peel based on a salicylic acid derivative, not our specific BioRePeel treatment — but it shows the underlying method is well supported by research. That’s the same principle we build on at AFACIAL, without promising every blemish will disappear completely.

When should I see a dermatologist instead of booking a treatment?

If you’re dealing with inflamed pustules, painful cysts, breakouts spreading across larger areas, or scarring, that needs to be looked at by a dermatologist first. AFACIAL is a skin studio and doesn’t treat skin conditions like acne — and HydraFacial specifically isn’t suitable for active inflammatory acne, since it can irritate the skin further. If your acne has already been checked out by a doctor and is currently under control, we’re happy to support your skin with a treatment tailored to what it needs.

What does a blemished skin treatment cost in Vienna?

Professional treatments for blemished skin in Vienna typically run somewhere between roughly €90 and €250, depending on the method and duration. Your initial skin analysis at AFACIAL is free, so you know exactly what you need before committing to anything. You’ll find our current prices for extraction, HydraFacial, and chemical peels in the price list above.
