What is Back Extraction?
Back Extraction at Dermax Spa is a targeted clinical treatment designed to clear clogged pores, blackheads, and congestion on the back — an area prone to breakouts, oil buildup, and texture concerns. It combines professional exfoliation, safe manual and tool-assisted extractions, and soothing therapies to restore clearer, smoother skin on the upper or full back.
How does it work?
At Dermax Spa our certified estheticians begin with a skin assessment to identify the level of congestion, inflammation, and any sensitivity. The treatment typically follows these steps:
-
Gentle cleansing to remove surface oils and debris.
-
Steam and warm compresses to soften skin and open pores for safer extractions.
-
Professional exfoliation (enzymatic or chemical peel options) to loosen dead skin and speed unclogging.
-
Precise extractions performed manually and with sterile, professional tools to remove comedones and impurities safely.
-
Antibacterial/clarifying serums applied to reduce bacteria and calm the skin.
-
A soothing mask (cooling and anti-inflammatory) to reduce redness and support healing.
-
Post-treatment moisturizer and SPF recommendation (if exposed) plus tailored aftercare advice.
