The client came in with combination-to-oily skin, high sebaceous activity, open comedones (blackheads) across the nose, uneven texture, and enlarged-looking pores.
David Siado, a Licensed Esthetician, built the protocol around the client's skin condition and goals, combining several technologies in a purposeful sequence to reach this result:
Two sessions — and this 24-year-old client's skin looked clearer, smoother, and visibly less congested across the T-zone.

At first glance, this looks like a simple "clear the blackheads" request. But the skin was showing several connected factors:
Skin Concerns & Treatment Goals
What the Skin Was Showing
Uneven Texture
& Light Reflection
& Light Reflection
Enlarged pore openings and micro-roughness scatter light unevenly, so the skin looks duller and less smooth.
Shine & Uneven Finish
Sebaceous activity in the
T-zone creates that characteristic shine, which visually emphasizes the pores.

Visible Pore Openings
In oily zones, excess sebum mixes with dead surface cells, making pore openings look darker and more noticeable.
How Each Step Built the Result
Protocol Logic:
Step 12. Finishing Care
Step 11. Final Cold Plasma
Step 10. LED Support
Step 9. Soothing Mask
Step 8. Oxygen Refresh
Step 7. Enzyme Mask
Step 5. High Frequency
Step 6. Electrical-Based Meso Nano-Channeling — DermeBoost™
Step 4. Cold Plasma (Post-Extraction)
Step 3. Manual Extraction
Step 2. HydroDiamond Treatment
Step 1. Cleansing
After two sessions, the skin looked:
- clearer across the nose and T-zone
- smoother in texture
- more even in how it reflects light
- less shiny
- fresher and calmer
The result came from how each step prepared the next: first, surface prep and clearing; then, targeted formulas; and finally, the calming finishing technologies.

"I have never felt my skin this clean. My nose was full of blackheads, and after the treatment, it looks so much smoother. I experienced no irritation, and my skin feels fresh and light."
