If your skin is sensitive then that will happen. I did one a few weeks ago and goof God, the dryness and acne. Keep moisturizing and scale back on the topicals.

Yes my skin is sensitive .. So it will go back to normal?? Are these facials gonna help long term? Or are they not worth it ... ?

I guess it's not necessarily the acne anymore.. But the tiny scars (no one else seems to notice ) and the discoloration and redness.. Broken capillaries..

Facials may help. Keep in mind that skin perfection is a myth and your quest to resolve all your scars and broken capillaries can ultimately worsen your skin and bring your acne back. If you leave your skin n alone (meaning no actives and just a basic routine), you may find it heals on its own
