Causes you must know while starting blackhead removal
Blackheads are caused when sebum (the skin's natural oil) collects and hardens in the pores. The congesting toxins that are being expelled through your skin from the blood and lymph fluid combines with sebum creating a pasty glue. The exposed tip becomes oxidized and black, hence the name - blackhead. Oily and combination skins are most susceptible to these.
Hence blackheads removal is very important specially for oily type of skin
otherwise pimples, acne may occur. The skin's most dense oil glands are
located in T-zone. That is why there you get the most blackheads. It is
most important to keep the skin scrupulously clean.
To squeeze or not to squeeze ? a common question during blackhead removal
If blackheads look ready to pop out, you could try removing them gently by
using a blackhead extractor. Pressure around the blackhead helps it to pop
out through the hole. Also, Pore cleanser strips (blackhead extractor) can
be used for removal of blackhead. Using them once per week will leave your
pores cleaner and smaller.
Only ever squeeze a spot with a definite head that looks about to burst - pressure on an unready infected spot spreads bacteria below the skin's surface, infecting the surrounding tissue. Bad spots need a doctor's advice, and he may suggest antibiotic or even hormone therapy.
