Teen Blemish Banisher

Clarifying Care for Young, Congested Skin

At Shellharbour Skin, our Teen Blemish Banisher treatment is designed to care for younger, breakout-prone skin in a gentle and clinically supervised way.

This targeted facial helps to deeply cleanse, clear congestion, and calm inflammation – supporting a clearer, balanced complexion and healthy skincare habits from an early age.

Treatment time: 60 minutes
Downtime: Minimal – mild redness may occur for several hours

What to Expect

Every Teen Blemish Banisher facial is customised for individual skin needs and comfort levels, ensuring safety and care throughout.

Double Cleanse – A thorough double cleanse removes surface oil, impurities, and buildup to prepare the skin for treatment.

Extractions – The skin is sanitised before manual extractions are performed to remove blackheads, whiteheads, or congestion using sterile techniques.

LED Light Therapy – Soothing LED light helps calm visible redness, reduce bacteria associated with breakouts, and support skin repair.[D-1] 

Level 1 Peel – A gentle clinical peel is applied to refine pores and smooth the skin’s surface. The peel selected is mild and suitable for young or sensitive skin.

Finishing Products – The treatment concludes with hydrating and protective finishing products, chosen by your clinician to rebalance the skin and protect the barrier.

Benefits

While experiences vary, the Teen Blemish Banisher treatment is designed to:

• Clear visible congestion and impurities
• Support a calmer, more balanced complexion
• Refine texture and reduce surface buildup
• Calm redness and irritation
• Encourage healthy skincare routines for long-term skin health

Who It’s For

This treatment is ideal for teenagers or younger clients experiencing:

• Congestion, blackheads, or whiteheads
• Breakout-prone or oily skin
• Early signs of acne or hormonal changes
• Uneven texture or dullness

A consultation prior to treatment ensures the peel strength and extraction method are safe and appropriate for your age and skin type.

Post-Treatment Care

Following treatment, the skin may appear slightly red or feel warm for a few hours. To maintain results and protect the skin:

• Avoid touching or picking the skin
• Refrain from using active ingredients (retinol, exfoliants, acids) for 3–5 days
• Keep skin hydrated with gentle moisturisers
• Always apply SPF daily
• Avoid heat, saunas, and gym workouts for 24 hours

Your clinician will provide an individualised aftercare plan and recommend suitable skincare products for use at home.

Potential Risks & Considerations

The Teen Blemish Banisher is a low-risk treatment when performed by trained clinicians.
Possible temporary effects include mild redness, light flaking, or short-term dryness.

Rarely, minor tenderness or pinpoint marks may occur following extractions, particularly in congested areas.

A pre-treatment consultation ensures suitability and reviews any topical or prescription acne products being used.

Important Information

Individual experiences vary. All Teen Blemish Banisher treatments at Shellharbour Skin are performed by qualified clinicians using sterile technique and professional-grade formulations. Your clinician will discuss your skin goals, suitability, potential risks, and aftercare prior to treatment.
