What makes it different
What Makes Our Extraction Facial Different
About 90% Without Metal Tools
Trained hands, cotton and patience clear your pores. Metal extractors come out only for the rare angles that truly need them.
Softened First, Never Forced
Steam, an oil-dissolving balm and enzyme + acid exfoliation loosen every blackhead so it releases cleanly, without trauma or scarring.
Extractions Under Magnification
Blackheads, whiteheads and sebaceous filaments are cleared one by one, thoroughly and gently, at your pace.
Blue Light Therapy Included
Medical-grade blue light therapy from a Sapphire Lux panel calms oil glands and reduces acne-causing bacteria after extractions.
Fully Customized on the Table
Oily nose, congested chin or a whole face of clogged pores: the plan follows what your skin is doing that day.
Calm Skin When You Leave
Probiotic hydration and a pore-refining finish, so you walk out clear and smooth with minimal to no redness.
Who it’s for
Is a Blackhead Facial Right for You?
For congested skin that needs a real deep cleansing facial, not another pore strip.
Stubborn blackheads
Nose, chin, forehead and cheeks: the ones strips and scrubs never move.
Clogged, enlarged pores
Congestion and buildup that make pores look bigger and skin feel rough.
Oily, congested skin
Shine by midday and texture that keeps coming back.
Whiteheads & sebaceous filaments
Closed comedones and the gray dots that crowd the nose.
Men and women
All skin types. Men book this for nose and beard-line congestion too.
It’s been a while
No facial in months? This is the deep pore cleansing reset.
Active, inflamed breakouts? Book the Advanced Acne Facial. Very reactive skin? Try the Sensitive Skin Facial. Not sure at all? Book the “I Have No Idea!” Facial.
Step by step
Your 55-Minute Deep Pore Cleansing Facial
Six steps, from double cleanse to blue light.
Deep double cleanse
An oil-dissolving balm and a second cleanse lift away oil, sunscreen and buildup.
Enzyme + acid exfoliation
Clinical-grade exfoliation clears dead skin so clogged pores release easily.
Extended steam & pore softening
Hot steam and targeted softening solutions prep every blackhead for smooth, low-pressure removal.
Precision extractions
Blackheads and whiteheads are cleared under magnification, one by one, with check-ins and breaks whenever you want them.
Blue light therapy
Medical-grade blue light therapy calms oil glands and reduces acne-causing bacteria.
Probiotic hydration & pore-refining finish
Calming hydration restores your barrier, visibly refines pores and soothes any pinkness.
About 55 minutes, or up to 75 with add-ons. You leave with a simple home routine to keep pores clear between visits.

From the moment you walk out to your next visit.

Why Conjure
Why San Diego Trusts Us With Extractions
Rushed extractions leave marks; skipped extractions leave blackheads. Ours are fully customized, unhurried and done mostly by hand, which is why clients travel from Pacific Beach, Golden Hill, South Park and across San Diego to our private Hillcrest studio, and why they leave with a home routine to keep pores clear between visits.
“This is my absolute go-to place for all of my skin needs! I love that the skin care is organic — it makes my skin glow and feel super soft and rejuvenated. The entire treatment is amazing with blackhead extraction and blue light therapy. I can’t rave about this place enough!”
Before you book
Blackhead Extraction Facial FAQ
Answers to what people ask most about blackhead removal. Still unsure? Ask a skin therapist, it’s free.
How much does the Blackhead Extraction Facial cost?
$119 for the 55-minute facial, fully customized, with blue light therapy included. Add Lux Light Therapy for $148 (60 min), Extra Extraction Time for $158 (70 min), or bundle red light, extra extractions and the Intensive Calming Mask for $168 (75 min) and save $48. Around San Diego, facials with extractions are typically listed from about $85 to $185.
Is the extraction process painful?
It can be mildly uncomfortable, but your skin is softened with steam and enzymes first, and every extraction is paced to your comfort. We check in throughout and offer breaks whenever you want them; most clients find it far easier than they expected.
Do you use metal extraction tools?
Rarely. Around 90% of our extractions are done without metal tools, using trained hands, cotton and patience. Metal extractors come out only for the rare angles that truly require them.
I have a lot of blackheads. Which option should I book?
Book the Extra Extraction Time option ($158, 70 min) for 15 more minutes of extractions, or the full bundle ($168, 75 min) with red light and the Intensive Calming Mask. Not sure? Book the 55-minute facial and decide with your skin therapist when you arrive.
How often should I get a blackhead facial?
Every four to six weeks, depending on your skin type and congestion level. Regular visits to our Hillcrest San Diego studio keep pores clear and prevent new blackheads from settling in.
How should I prepare for my appointment?
Come as you are; straight from work or the gym is fine. If you have time, skip exfoliants and harsh products for 24 to 48 hours before your visit. Helpful, but never required.
Can I come in with a sunburn or a fresh tan?
A tan is fine if you've been using SPF 30+. A sunburn from the last 5 days means we should wait, because we can't exfoliate freshly burned skin. Have an event coming up? Text us at 866.956.1605 and we'll plan around it.
Can I get a blackhead facial while pregnant or breastfeeding?
Pregnant or breastfeeding? Tell us when you book and we'll adjust your treatment.
Is the Blackhead Extraction Facial right for me?
If you're dealing with blackheads, whiteheads, clogged pores or oily, congested skin, yes. Active, inflamed breakouts do best with our Advanced Acne Facial. Not sure what your skin needs? Book our “I Have No Idea!” Facial and we'll build the right treatment for you.
What is a high frequency facial add-on?
High Frequency adds 10 minutes for $25, so the Blackhead Extraction Facial becomes $144 for 65 minutes. Your skin therapist glides a single glass wand glowing violet (argon) and orange (neon) together over your skin. The violet light helps clear congestion and calm blemish-prone skin, and the orange light adds a warming boost for a fresh, radiant look. It is not the same as radio frequency skin tightening. Not recommended during pregnancy and not for use over active, inflamed breakouts.
Are extractions done by a licensed esthetician?
Yes. Every Blackhead Extraction Facial at Conjure is performed by a licensed esthetician, which we call a skin therapist, in our private Hillcrest studio.
