Blackhead is a blemish that is good if you don’t pay attention to it. The more you look at it carefully, the worse it will be. What’s more, it likes to gather on the nose, cheeks and forehead. It has its own [spotlight] effect, which makes people unable to move their eyes. Fortunately, long blackheads are still saved.
How does blackhead grow?
Blackhead is actually an open acne. When sebaceous glands secrete exuberant, sebum will accumulate and block the outlet. When sebum accumulates under the skin, pores are white, which is still a closed acne.
After the hair follicle mouth expands, sebum is exposed to the air. Under the action of bacteria, dust and oxidation, white lipids turn black and form blackheads.
Don’t use these five methods any more!
There are many “tricks” circulating on the Internet to get rid of blackheads, claiming to be “cheap and easy to use”, but in fact they are not reliable.
Step 1 Squeeze blackheads with your hands
When looking in the mirror and seeing annoying blackheads, some people can’t help squeezing them with their hands. This simple and crude method cannot uproot blackheads, and it may also lead to improper operation:
Expansion of skin infection;
Blackheads drill deeper;
The pores are oversqueezed and become larger.
2. Rub your face with salt and sugar
I heard that rubbing your face with salt and white sugar can remove blackheads, and you can’t help stirring? Stop!
These things have uneven particle sizes and are extremely prone to scratches in the process of rubbing the skin. In the long run, it will damage the skin barrier and make the skin fragile and sensitive.
Step 3 Stick your nose
Tearing violence can cause serious damage to the skin. Not only can blackheads not be eradicated, but also the skin becomes loose and pores become bulky. Maybe the skin is more sensitive and not worth it!
Perhaps you will say: after tearing off the nose sticker, you can really see some blackheads adhered to it. However, before long, blackheads will still [make a comeback]. In the end, the loss outweights the gain.
Step 4 Drain the liquid with blackheads
The composition of blackhead outlet liquid is often some strong acid and alkali substances. Long-term use will corrode pores, solidify pores and cause great damage to skin.
These two methods are suitable for some people.
The first is to use olive oil to remove blackheads.
The principle of substance [similar dissolution] is utilized. Fat-soluble components of oils and fats penetrate into pores to soften blackheads and are finally cleaned with warm water.
The effect of this method is relatively mild and not very significant, so it is suitable for people with a small number of blackheads. It should be noted that if the cleaning is not in place, grease may enter pores and further enlarge pores.
The second is to use facial cleanser with strong cleaning power, such as frosted facial cleanser.
This method can improve the excessive keratinization of hair follicle sebaceous gland epithelium and is helpful for blackhead removal.
However, it is only suitable for people with high tolerance to cheek skin. Don’t use sensitive muscles, large dry skin and mixed oil muscles with dry cheeks. Pay attention to the range and frequency when using. It is good to use locally, not the whole face. Use it 1-2 times a month, too frequently will also hurt the skin.
The most reliable way is…
If you want to remove blackheads effectively and safely, you should consult a professional dermatologist. Scientific medication is the most reliable.
