Deep Clean + Exfoliate + Clear Those Hard-to-Reach Places
Your face isn’t the only place that can deal with clogged pores, blackheads, breakouts, excess oil and dry or rough skin.
Our Clarifying Back Facial is a targeted treatment designed to deeply cleanse, exfoliate and refresh one of the hardest areas of your body to properly take care of on your own. We combine professional cleansing, gentle enzymatic exfoliation, extractions when needed and calming skincare to help leave your back feeling cleaner, smoother and refreshed.
Whether you’re dealing with ongoing back acne and congestion or simply want a really good deep clean in an area you can’t easily reach, this treatment gives your back the same kind of attention we normally give your face.
Because Reaching Your Own Back Isn’t Exactly Easy
The back is particularly good at collecting sweat, oil, dead skin and product buildup — and particularly inconvenient when it comes time to actually do something about it.
We begin by thoroughly cleansing the area with our Micro-Exfoliating Honey Cleanser to remove buildup while providing gentle surface exfoliation.
Next, we apply our Cocoa Enzyme Mask to further loosen accumulated dead skin cells and prepare congested areas for extractions when they’re needed.
If we find blackheads or clogged pores, we’ll carefully extract what’s appropriate rather than aggressively picking at every bump we see.
After extractions, Spot Stop can be applied to areas that need additional attention, particularly where the skin is red or irritated. We finish with Aloe Calendula Mist to calm and refresh the skin.
If your back will be exposed to the sun after your appointment, we’ll also finish with Light Day Sunscreen Broad Spectrum SPF 37.
Who Needs a Back Facial?
You don’t necessarily need to have significant acne to benefit from one.
Our Clarifying Back Facial is a great option for back acne, clogged pores, blackheads, occasional breakouts, excess oil, rough texture, dryness or general buildup.
It’s also useful for people who work out frequently, play sports, sweat heavily or spend a lot of time outdoors, since sweat, friction and occlusive clothing can contribute to congestion.
And sometimes there isn’t a major skin concern at all. Your back simply needs exfoliation and maintenance, and it’s an area that’s difficult to properly clean and exfoliate yourself.
Back Breakouts Need Home Care Too
If you’re dealing with recurring breakouts, what happens between appointments is going to matter just as much as what we do during your back facial.
For breakout-prone areas, we may recommend Cleansing Gel with Salicylic Acid as your daily body cleanser. Salicylic acid helps exfoliate inside congested pores and is particularly useful for oily and acne-prone skin.
We may also recommend applying White Willow & Juniper Clearing Mist twice daily to breakout-prone areas.
Of course, skincare products aren’t particularly helpful if you can’t reach the area you’re trying to treat.
We also carry a back scrubber designed for those hard-to-reach areas, making it much easier to consistently cleanse and care for your back at home.
A Few Everyday Habits Matter
If back breakouts are an ongoing issue, we’ll also want to look at what’s regularly coming into contact with your skin.
Sweaty workout clothes, sports equipment, tight clothing, backpacks and leaving sweat sitting on the skin for long periods can all contribute to an environment where congestion is more likely.
Changing out of sweaty clothing and cleansing the skin after exercise can be a surprisingly important part of keeping your back clear.
You don’t need a complicated routine. You need one that you can actually reach — and actually follow consistently.
