These blackheads are referred to as comedones. They are dark not because the pores are filled with dirt but because of the melanin granules that are constantly being pushed to the opening of the hair follicle. When light strikes them, they become oxidized and turn dark in color. After the facial, the granules are not visible, but as soon as you are exposed to the light of day, they reappear. The best thing is to put a sunblock right after a facial as well as use a sunblock daily. There are lightening creams for bleaching out the skin that can also be used as well to help fade the dark granules or an application of 3 percent hydrogen peroxide, which will also work well.
