What is the purpose of desincrustation in skincare?

Desincrustation is a crucial step in skincare that focuses on preparing the skin for extraction procedures. The primary purpose of this technique is to soften and break down the debris, including oil, dead skin cells, and impurities trapped in the pores. By using a desincrustation solution, often alkaline in nature, the treatment makes it easier for the esthetician to extract comedones, blackheads, and other blockages from the skin without causing excessive trauma.

While exfoliation, moisturizing, and tightening the skin are important aspects of skincare, they do not capture the specific intent behind desincrustation. The technique is specifically designed to aid in the extraction process, ensuring that the skin is prepped properly to make such treatments more effective and less painful for clients.
