Finding a Blackhead Remover that Works!
by Jhone Linkan WriterAnyone who has ever noticed tiny black
pimple-like specks on their face has come into contact with a blackhead. A
blackhead is simply grease, oil, skin cells and bacteria that have become
trapped in the tiny hair follicles on your body that are referred to as pores.
The trapped waste stays in the pores, but remains uncovered by skin. Because
there is no covering, the trapped material becomes oxidized causing it to turn
black. Acne blackheads are commonly found on areas of the body that produce the
most oil. The face, back, shoulders, chest and neck are all prime blackhead
territory. Most people first notice blackheads on very visible areas of the
face such as the nose and forehead. 
There are many
different methods of blackhead removal, but the best blackhead remover
physically pulls the trapped oils and bacteria out of the pores. A comedone
loop extractor is generally a stainless steel tool with two ends of unequal
size. One end is either has a small wire loop or a round circular hole for
blackhead extraction. The other end is either a larger stainless steel loop or
round circular hole for extracting white heads. Before using a blackhead
remover, be sure to sterilize the stainless steel tool by dipping it in boiling
water and gently wiping it with a cotton swab soaked in isopropyl alcohol.
Begin with a thorough hand washing. Prepare the area of removal by firmly
pressing a clean, steaming hot towel directly on it. This works to open the
pores and make removal easier. Take the small end of the comedone loop and
press it gently over the blackhead while rocking it back and forth. The
material trapped inside should come right out. As soon as the blackhead is
removed, cleanse the area with isopropyl alcohol. Some blackheads are more
difficult to remove. This may be because the pore is not sufficiently open.
Other causes include ingrown hairs blocking the oxidized material from coming
out and severe inflammation. If a blackhead does not come out by correctly
using the blackhead remover, reapply the hot towel and repeat the procedure.
Never force removal or squeeze the blackhead to get it out of the pore. This
seriously increases the risk of permanently damaging the skin. Instead, apply
an antibiotic ointment to the blackhead and let it rest for a few days. The
removal should be successful after inflammation has subsided. Those prone to
blackheads should take special precautions to reduce future occurrences of the
unsightly blemishes. Only use mild, oil free products to cleanse and
moisturize. Increasing intake of vitamins for skin health can also help reduce
blackheads. Use a gentle exfoliation routine once a week to clear the skin of
dead cells, which can block the pores and trap oils. For more information click here!
