What is the correct way to remove black heads?

Answer by  bean11 (2803)

There are special skin treatment strips available at drugstores for blackhead removal. You simply place a strip over as many blackheads as it will cover, and it will remove them.

Getting a facial is the safest, most relaxing way. The attendant can steam the blackheads out or use other methods and is able to address them without injuring your skin.

The least invasive method is to use black head removing strips (most stores have for the nose area). A do-it your own way is to disinfect your face and fingers. Use toilet paper and wrap it around your fingers and squeeze. The paper is used to prevent bacteria from your hands and to wipe the substance from the black heads.

It is always better try and prevent them rather to removed them. Wash the area two to three times per day and perhaps use a over the counter skin cleanser. If you must remove them, then clean the area with a alcohol soaked cotton ball, open the skin with a pin or sewing needle, then apply gentle pressure.

Black heads cannot be removed, but you can get rid of them by simply using a washcloth and soap and washing your face before you go to bed or after sweating. By exfoliating your skin, the black heads will clear away.
