Hi.
Yesterday I went for a basic facial and the beautician helped me to extract my blackheads and what not. I was having this red tiny bumps on my cheeks area which I never had before in my life which is why I decided to go for an facial to find out and hopefully clear it.
Turns out it's whiteheads and according to the beautician, they were quite hard to extract and there were still some hidden under my skin, not yet developed. So she helped me to extract those that she can which hurts damn badly and after that she helped me to put on a water based mask to calm and smoothe it.
However after the facial ends, my cheeks were seen worse than before. I can understand the redness but the spots were more visible than before. Is this normal????? :-( how Long will it take to subside and can I still put cream and makeup over it?
This is my 2nd time having a facial with the same shop and my first time went very well so it's definitely not a sensitive reaction towards the products they used on my face.
Also the beautician suggested to get a detox facial to get out the whiteheads underneath my skin. Has anyone tried it before?
Thank you!
