Is it safe to use a comedone extractor at home?

Answer by  Levi98 (19)

It's not recommended that you use a comedone extractor at home. You risk injury to your skin and spreading infection to other pores. It's best to leave this to an esthetician as they are professionally trained.

It's up to you I suppose. If you feel safe using it, however, I suggest visiting a dermatologist. I feel that a professional in this area will be able to serve your needs both health wise and professional. They can also give you special diets and suggestions to eliminate your blackheads.

Yes, it is safe to use a Comedone extractor at home. This is because they can be harmless, but if you have a habit of picking at your skin, then I would not suggest getting one of these at home. Rather, go to the doctor for the extraction of what is under the surface of your skin.

It is, but you have to be very carefull and make sure you use quality comedone extractor. Also you have to work in front of mirror and have plenty of room and light.
