When extractions need more time
Our facials include time for extractions, but skin congestion varies between clients. If your esthetician identifies more comedones, blackheads, or clogged pores than a standard facial can address, this add-on provides focused additional attention. Clients often request the extra 15 minutes when their skin shows more congestion at the appointment than anticipated.
Deciding whether to add time is a practical, on-site call: your esthetician evaluates the amount of congestion and recommends the add-on if it will meaningfully reduce manual pressure during treatment. Extractions performed with careful pacing reduce unnecessary force and let your provider treat targeted areas more thoroughly without rushing.
How the extra time is used
The additional 15 minutes are allocated specifically to targeted extractions and the gentle follow-up steps that support them. This means concentrated attention on problem areas instead of spreading the facial time across multiple steps; the intent is a more methodical approach to clearing clogged pores while maintaining overall treatment flow.
Adding extraction time does not change the rest of your facial package; it simply reallocates fifteen minutes to concentrated work on congestion. That trade-off can mean slightly shifted sequence timing, so the esthetician coordinates with you about comfort, visible redness expectations, and brief aftercare recommendations before proceeding.
Scheduling and local convenience
Add-ons like this one are easy to add when booking or during check-in, and they fit well with the appointment windows we offer for commuters and local families. Spa Apsara’s Fircrest location serves clients from Fircrest, Tacoma, University Place and nearby towns, making it practical to book before or after local errands or outings.
Price and timing are straightforward: this service is an add-on lasting exactly 15 MINUTES and priced at $27.5. If you’re unsure whether you need the extra time, ask your esthetician during consultation — they will confirm if the add-on will help without extending the overall appointment unnecessarily.
