Blackheads and Enlarged Pores: Why They Form and How We Treat Them

from 65€ 75 min

Blackheads are not dirt that you can wash away with harsh soap. They are a mixture of oil and dead skin cells that have oxidized and darkened inside the pore. This is why aggressive drying usually worsens the situation, as your skin reacts by producing even more oil.

Common Symptoms

  • •Dark spots in the T-zone, on the nose, around the nostrils, and on the chin
  • •Pores that are visible from half a meter away
  • •Uneven, rough skin texture that causes make-up to settle into pores
  • •Skin that appears shiny within an hour of washing off make-up

Common Underlying Causes

  • •Overproduction of oil and slowed cell turnover that clogs the pore
  • •Inappropriate skincare products, especially alcohol-based toners and drying gels
  • •Manual squeezing at home, which permanently stretches the pore
  • •Genetics and hormonal fluctuations that affect sebum density

Our Salon Treatment

Deep Skin Cleansing with Enzymatic Peeling

We clear and empty the pores, then tighten them immediately, without damaging the skin barrier or causing dryness.

from 65€ 75 min
  1. 1

    Skin Analysis

    We determine whether your skin is oily, combination, or dehydrated and producing oil as a defense mechanism. This guides our entire approach.

  2. 2

    Enzymatic Peeling

    Enzymes loosen the keratin plug inside the pore, ensuring the cleansing process is gentle rather than aggressive.

  3. 3

    Gentle Pore Unclogging

    Using controlled hydration and warmth, we open the pores so their contents can be removed without traumatizing the tissue.

  4. 4

    Manual Cleansing

    We empty the pores, starting with the most problematic areas, using sterile techniques and regular breaks to prevent inflammation.

  5. 5

    Soothing and Pore Tightening

    A specialized REPÊCHAGE® seaweed mask reduces redness and tightens the pores to prevent them from refilling immediately.

  6. 6

    Homecare Plan

    You will leave with a specific routine, typically involving three products. Without it, pores will likely return to their previous state within six weeks.

Every skin reacts differently. During the diagnosis we pinpoint the exact cause of your problem (blackheads and enlarged pores) and compose the treatment for your skin, not from a one-size-fits-all protocol.

What to Expect

  • •Immediately after: clean skin with slight redness that fades within a few hours
  • •The next day: visibly smoother texture, with less make-up settling
  • •After 4 to 6 weeks: slower return of blackheads when maintaining the recommended home routine
  • •After a series of 3 treatments: more permanent pore refinement and stabilized oil production

How to Care for Your Skin at Home

  • •Cleanse your skin with an alcohol-free gel, morning and night, never using soap
  • •Use an enzymatic, AHA, or BHA exfoliant once or twice a week instead of harsh mechanical scrubs
  • •Hydrate even if you have oily skin, as dehydration triggers further oil production
  • •Never squeeze pores at home, as a single unsuccessful attempt can leave a lasting scar
