01
Start here — direct answer
Why do blackheads come back every week, and what clears them properly in Busan?
A blackhead
is an open pore packed with oxidised oil and dead skin; the black is oxidation, not dirt, which is why scrubbing does nothing and strips make it worse by tearing the pore open. They refill because the lining of the pore stays sticky and the gland keeps producing, so a plug forms again within days of being pulled. Clearing them properly is two jobs: extracting what is there without damaging the pore, and changing the lining so the next plug does not form. At Boom Dermatology the first is a thirty-minute session, a softening peel or steam, extraction by the doctor at the angle of each pore with a looped tool, nothing forced, and a calming, pore-tightening finish; the second is a topical retinoid
prescribed the same day, which normalises the pore lining within six to eight weeks so extraction becomes rare.
In Seomyeon the session is priced at the consultation and is the lowest tier of care; the aqua peel
does a gentler version by suction for a whole face, the medical extraction
on the acne plan handles whiteheads and cysts as well, and the pores themselves, which blackheads stretch, are treated on the pore page. Pores cannot be made permanently smaller, and the honest answer to that question is below.

Will my nose be red and obvious at dinner tonight?
Can anything make the pores themselves smaller, or is that a myth?
Is the price the real price, or does it grow in the chair?

The visit
What happens at a blackhead removal visit in Seomyeon?
This is how a blackhead visit runs at Boom Dermatology, a skin clinic in Seomyeon, Busan, from the first message to the review.
1
Message first
What your skin is doing this week, any treatment it is recovering from, and your dates. The doctor replies with the session and the price.
2
Skin check
Type, reactivity and congestion are read; the session is set and anything a care session cannot fix is named.
3
Cleanse
Make-up off; the skin prepared.
4
The session
By the protocol for your skin; thirty to sixty minutes.
5
Out the door
No downtime; sunscreen; make-up from the next hour.
6
Rhythm
Every two to four weeks for a course, or once before an event; timed around lasers and boosters.
How does Boom Dermatology clear blackheads?
Three rules that separate it from the mirror.
Soften first
A plug that is softened comes out whole; a dry one tears the pore.
Angle of the pore
The tool follows the pore, never across it; nothing is forced, and a pore that will not give is left.
Change the lining
A retinoid nightly is what stops the weekly refill; without it the session is a cycle.

Questions, answered properly
Is professional extraction actually different from what I do in the mirror?
Yes, in the two things that matter: the plug is softened first, and the tool follows the angle of the pore so the contents come out whole instead of being pushed sideways. In the mirror the plug is dry, the angle is wrong and the pressure is from fingernails, which is why the pore ends up wider and inflamed. At Boom Dermatology the doctor does it, which is not usual for a care session, and that is the difference.
Will my nose be red and obvious at dinner tonight?
Pink for an hour, gone by the time you have walked anywhere; occasionally one red spot where a stubborn plug came out, covered by make-up. Patients book at five and eat at seven.
Can anything make the pores themselves smaller, or is that a myth?
Smaller in appearance, yes; permanently smaller, no. A pore is a structure, and it looks large when it is full, stretched or surrounded by thinned collagen. Clearing it and keeping it clear with a retinoid shrinks the look at once; RF microneedling on the pore plan
tightens the wall for months. Our Seomyeon skin clinic says that plainly rather than selling a pore-minimising session.
Is the price the real price, or does it grow in the chair?
It is confirmed at the consultation and that is what you pay, VAT included. The only thing added is the retinoid prescription if you want it, which is a separate, small line and the part that actually keeps the nose clear.
How often would I need this?
Every four to six weeks while the retinoid takes hold, then rarely; most patients at Boom Dermatology in Busan come back before an event or after a lapse in the routine rather than on a schedule.
