Can you cure blackheads with a vacuum?

Answer by  dpink (111)

No, do not try this, it will damage your skin. If you need to cure blackheads go to your dermatologist or buy pore strips to remove the blackheads.

Answer by  Spork (88)

A blackhead vacuum works by gently opening the clogged pore and suctioning the infected matter out. The vacuum and the user's hands must be scrupulously clean to avoid infection.

Pore vacuums work by using an intense suction to lift dirt and debris out of pores. Blackheads are effectively removed by such treatments, after the pores have been steamed open to allow impurities to loosen and be cleansed. Pore vacuums leave the skin only mildly irritated and redness will clear up within a day or two.

There is some debate about the value of this,but you can purchase a mini-vaccuum designed especially for the purpose of removing blackheads.However,this does not prevent them from recurring.
