Facial for Acne in Stanfield, NC
Acne Facials That Calm Breakouts and Restore Clear, Balanced Skin
A dedicated facial for acne, customized to your skin's triggers, texture, and healing needs.
Selah treats breakouts at the root, not just the surface, in her Stanfield studio.
How Selah Treats Acne-Prone Skin
What Happens During a Facial for Acne at Esthetics by Selah
Acne shows up differently on every client, so Selah starts each acne facial with a close look at your skin's current state: breakout pattern, congestion, redness, and any scarring left behind. She builds every treatment to address the root cause of breakouts, not just the surface symptoms, using deep cleansing, gentle extractions, and calming ingredients suited to your skin's tolerance level.
Because breakouts aren't limited to the face, Selah also offers a back facial for clients dealing with body acne, congestion, or discoloration across the shoulders and upper back. This deep-cleansing treatment uses many of the same principles as her facial services, adapted for the thicker skin and larger surface area of the back.
Clients working through active breakouts, occasional hormonal flare-ups, or lingering post-acne marks all find a place in Selah's treatment room. Every acne facial is adjusted in real time based on how your skin responds during the appointment.
Why Clients Choose This Treatment

- Gentle extractions performed by hand to reduce the risk of scarring
- Calming ingredients that ease redness and post-breakout irritation
- Options like a lactic acid peel or brightening peel to fade acne marks
- A back facial add-on for clients dealing with body acne or back congestion

Your Acne Facial, Step by Step
What to Expect During Your Facial for Acne Appointment
Every acne facial follows a clear rhythm, though Selah adjusts pressure, product choice, and pacing based on how your skin looks and feels that day. Here's what a typical visit looks like from start to finish.
-
Step 1: Skin Analysis and Consultation
Selah reviews your breakout history, current products, and any areas of concern before choosing the right approach for that day's treatment.
-
Step 2: Cleansing and Exfoliating Facial Prep
Skin is cleansed and prepped with a gentle exfoliating facial step to loosen congestion and allow deeper product absorption.
-
Step 3: Extractions and Calming Treatment
Selah performs careful manual extractions where needed, followed by soothing ingredients or a lymphatic drainage massage to reduce inflammation and puffiness.
-
Step 4: Targeted Mask and Aftercare Guidance
A customized mask addresses your skin's specific needs, and Selah sends you home with clear aftercare steps to protect your results.
Is This Treatment Right for You?
Who Benefits Most from an Acne Facial
This treatment suits clients dealing with occasional breakouts, ongoing hormonal acne, clogged pores, or acne-related redness and discoloration. It also works well alongside Selah's health coaching services for clients whose breakouts connect to hormone balance or gut health, since skin often reflects what's happening internally.
Before your visit, avoid picking at active breakouts and skip harsh exfoliants for a few days. After treatment, your skin may look slightly flushed for a short time, which is a normal part of the deep-cleansing process.
Clients with more significant acne scarring may also want to ask Selah about microneedling for scars as a follow-up treatment once active breakouts are under better control.
Common Questions
Facial for Acne: Frequently Asked Questions
Here are answers to questions Selah hears often from clients considering an acne facial or back facial in Stanfield.
What's included in a facial for acne at Esthetics by Selah?
Each session includes a skin analysis, deep cleansing, manual extractions, and a calming or exfoliating step suited to your skin. Selah may also recommend a lactic acid peel or brightening peel to address lingering discoloration from past breakouts.
Can Selah treat acne on the back as well as the face?
Yes. Selah offers a dedicated back facial for clients dealing with congestion, breakouts, or discoloration across the back and shoulders, using deep-cleansing techniques adapted for that skin.
How often should I book an acne facial?
Most clients see the best results with sessions every three to four weeks, though Selah adjusts this timeline based on your skin's response and breakout pattern.
Will an acne facial improve acne scarring?
An acne facial helps with active breakouts, congestion, and discoloration, but deeper scarring often responds better to a microneedling treatment. Selah can walk you through both options during a skin consultation.
