Yes, We Show You the Gunk—Because Clean Skin Feels That Good
One of the most satisfying parts of your HydraFacial at Skin Heaven Aesthetics and Wellness is seeing what’s been extracted from your pores—aka, the “Gunkie Jar.” But what exactly is in there?
What Is Removed During a HydraFacial?
🔹 Excess oil (sebum): From clogged pores and hormonal imbalance
🔹 Dead skin cells: That build up on the surface and dull the complexion
🔹 Blackheads & whiteheads: Painlessly extracted without squeezing
🔹 Environmental toxins: From pollution, sunscreen, and makeup residue
All of this is gently removed using vortex suction technology, leaving your skin refreshed, detoxified, and visibly smoother.
Why It Matters
✔ Clean pores absorb skincare better
✔ Reduces acne and inflammation
✔ Prevents congestion and future breakouts
✔ Boosts circulation and skin healing
Our skilled estheticians at Skin Heaven Aesthetics and Wellness love educating patients on what their “gunkie” reveals and how to maintain results between visits. Come try it once, and you’ll never go back to traditional facials again.
