Should I use a Uno spoon to squeeze out acne on my face?

Probably every second woman and every first man had to deal with them. As ancient as humanity itself, blackheads are nothing more than open comedones. When the mouths of skin follicles are expanded, they are easily clogged with a mixture of sebum and dead epidermal cells. This cocktail inevitably oxidizes and – hello, black dot!

The specificity of these skin imperfections is such that the thicker the sebum, the worse the exfoliation of the epidermis, the greater the chance of getting a scattering of comedones. More often - on the forehead, nose, chin and along the hairline.

There are usually several reasons.

  • Hormones. Exceeding the norm of certain hormones leads to thickening of sebum and thickening of the epidermis. As a result, inflammation and comedones appear on the skin of the face - both open and closed. When the main cause of clogged pores is hormones, even the best remedy for blackheads will not save you, but it will keep the situation under control.
  • Nutrition. Recent scientific studies have proven that dark chocolate is not as dangerous to the skin as baked goods and sugar. Foods with a high glycemic index are what scientists call them. Fruits, vegetables and grains, on the contrary, reduce the risk of acne.
  • Incorrect care. Insufficient cleansing, lack of makeup remover, aggressive washing gels, comedogenic creams - all this is fraught with clogged pores, especially for oily skin.
  • Stress. Problems at work, school or at home affect the health of facial skin only indirectly. Stressful situations disrupt the balanced distribution of vitamins and minerals throughout the body's systems, and the skin and hair are supplied according to a residual principle. In addition, when our nerves give out, we are more likely to ignore normal hygiene, leading to acne on our skin.
  • Heredity. Sometimes the width of pores and viscosity of sebum are determined by genes. In this case, it will not be possible to get rid of blackheads forever. The good news is that fighting them is not useless. Regular care allows you to keep your skin beautiful and clean.

Features of the tool99

The Uno spoon is a cosmetology instrument that has a base holder and two tips at the edges. On one side there is a small recess with a hole in the center, and on the second there is a larger recess with several holes.

The smaller side can be used to gently squeeze out pimples, while the larger side helps get rid of blackheads* on the ears, in the T-zone, on the wings of the nose, etc. The Uno spoon can be used as an independent tool for medium or deep facial cleansing or combined with other devices (tweezers, Vidal loop, etc.).

Review of tools for removing open comedones

Before purchasing a tool for removing blackheads, you should consult with a specialist who will help you choose the appropriate option based on your individual skin characteristics.

Mechanical devices

Mechanical tools for cleaning pores are attractive due to their low cost, but their use is contraindicated when:

  • excessively dry and sensitive skin;
  • rosacea;
  • infectious rashes on the face;
  • scaly lichen;
  • skin atrophy;
  • dermatophilia;
  • contact dermatitis;
  • rosacea;
  • atherosclerosis.

General recommendations

Regardless of the device you choose, you need:

  • Before the procedure, clean your face of dirt and cosmetics, disinfect instruments and hands;
  • steam the skin to open the pores as much as possible;
  • act with extreme caution so as not to injure the epidermis;
  • After the session, make any mask that tightens the pores, or wipe your face with tonic.

Sticks (extractors)

Cosmetic applicators (extractors or sticks) are a rod made of stainless steel with various tips.

Table: characteristics of extractor tips

NameDescriptionMode of applicationSpecifics of use
Vidal loopA small loop with thin edges.
  1. Position the tool so that the comedon is in the center of the loop.
  2. Lightly press the device so that the contents of the pore come out.
  • Suitable for single dense black formations that protrude slightly above the skin;
  • with excessive force, it can injure the skin;
  • more painful to use than other attachments;
  • Apply once every 2-3 days.
Uno spoon and strainerSimilar tools made in the shape of a spoon. The Uno spoon has one hole, the strainer has several.
  1. Position the device so that the black dots are in the hole. If there are a lot of formations, a strainer is more suitable.
  2. Press down on the instrument and move it slightly after the sebum comes out.
  • Virtually painless use;
  • does not injure the skin;
  • convenient to use on the nose area;
  • the procedure is hygienic, since the contents of clogged pores remain in the spoon and not on the skin;
  • Provides deep cleansing of the epidermis;
  • applied once a month.
Vidal's needlePointed, needle-shaped tip.Lightly pierce the surface film that prevents sebum from leaving the pore, and remove the “plug”.
  • Suitable for formations located deep in the skin;
  • used with extreme caution, as any incorrect movement can injure the skin;
  • Apply once every 2-3 days.

There are applicators on sale with removable nozzles that can be changed as needed. This option is very practical, as it eliminates the need to buy several extractors.

These stick manufacturers have proven themselves well:

  • Zinger;
  • "Stalex";
  • Mertz;
  • SilverStar;
  • Metzger.

Today for the first time I tried on myself a wonderful device - the Uno Spatula of the Stalex brand. The spatula itself does not injure the face; using it practically does not hurt, but I must note that it is not very pleasant. You can store the spatula in its original case. True, it seems to me too small for this instrument, I just want it to be a couple of centimeters longer, and there is something similar to a pocket there, but it doesn’t fit in there completely. But this does not make it worse! I carried out the procedure on a pre-steamed face. I did it in the shower, it’s more convenient for me. But if you have time and desire, then you can sit over a pot of chamomile infusion. If you need to clean the frontal area, then you need to move the spatula from the eyebrow line to the hair. If it’s your nose, then you need to clean it starting from the tip and moving towards the base. Cheeks should be treated along the line from the cheekbones to the nose. And the chin - along the line to the lips. These movements can make the procedure as comfortable as possible without injuring or stretching the skin. As a result of the procedure, a lot of dirt remained on the shoulder blade (and this was against the backdrop of scrubs, rubbing and intensive washing). After the procedure, the skin was treated with peroxide. Alcohol-containing tonics are baked!!! They bake very well! I washed the spatula, oddly enough I had to use a needle to clean the device better. That’s all, the skin is clean, red, but I’m happy with tears of joy.

Tweezers

To remove open comedones, you can use classic tweezers, which are used to pluck eyebrows. The “legs” of such a tool end with blades:

  1. Lightly press the device onto the skin around the pore so that the contents come out.
  2. Grab the plug with tweezers and remove it from your face.
  3. Disinfect the instrument and begin removing the next comedone.

There are tweezers specifically designed for removing blackheads; they end not with a spatula, but with a needle of different shapes:

  1. Apply pressure to the skin around the clogged pore with your fingertips.
  2. Using a needle, remove the “cork”.
  3. Disinfect the instrument and proceed to remove the next greasy formation.


Tweezers designed for removing comedones end with thin needles

Electric brushes

The principle of operation of an electric brush is simple: after turning on the device, the nozzle with nylon bristles begins to rotate, providing high-quality cleansing of pores. The use of the device is contraindicated in:

  • inflammation;
  • dermatological diseases;
  • increased sensitivity and dry skin;
  • rosacea.

Method of use:

  1. Cleanse the skin. Apply cleanser.
  2. Wet the brush with water.
  3. Select speed mode. It is better to start with the slowest one in order to monitor the reaction of the epidermis.
  4. Using circular movements, move along the skin along massage lines, starting with the cheeks, then move on to treating the nose, chin, and forehead. The entire procedure should take no more than 5 minutes. Do not press too hard on the brush, so as not to cause damage to the skin and small blood vessels.
  5. Wash, apply cream.

Manufacturers recommend that those with thick, oily skin can use the device once a day, dry, sensitive and thin skin - 2-3 times a week, normal - 3-4 times a week. However, cosmetologists advise using such devices no more than once a week.

After use, it is recommended to treat the device, hands and face with an antiseptic. The nozzle should be changed every 2–3 months.

When choosing a device, you should pay attention to the stiffness of the bristles: the bristles should be moderately soft so as not to scratch or injure the skin. It’s great if the kit includes attachments of different hardnesses.


The rotating nozzle with bristles ensures high-quality skin cleansing

The following models are popular among consumers:

  • Clinique Sonic System Purifying Cleansing Brush;
  • VisaPure, Phillips;
  • MFA-02;
  • Clarisonic Skin Cleansing System;
  • Pobling Sonic Pore Cleansing Brush;
  • Mary Kay Skinvigorate;
  • Beurer FVE60;
  • Cleansing & Polishing Tool, Sigma;
  • Pro-X Advanced Cleansing System, Olay;
  • SkinPro, Oriflame;
  • Nivea "Ultra-Cleansing System".

I believe that you need to carefully select each product. I have a good attitude towards brushes if their use is indicated for the patient.

Elena Monakhova, cosmetologist at the TORI cosmetology and beauty center

https://www.passion.ru/beauty/kosmetologiya/shchetki-dlya-lica-vred-ili-polza-156793.htm

I have a clarisonic mia 2 brush. I bought it for 8 thousand in Ile de Bot, and then, through a promotion, I received several thousand rubles for this purchase in gift certificates, which I then spent on the necessary cosmetics. What I mean is that for that price I wouldn’t buy it. Then. Now I have been using the brush to cleanse my face every other day for two years now, and I have not had a single complaint. It really cleans well, on my oily skin the pores become clogged much less, and the blackheads have also become less noticeable. It is also really well assembled, is not afraid of falling into water, has some kind of magnetic charging, and holds a charge for a very long time. In short, if you have oily skin and you live in a polluted city, be sure to buy such a thing, the result will be obvious, so to speak.

Vacuum pore cleaners

The vacuum device operates on the principle of a vacuum cleaner (pressure is created between the surface of the nozzle and the skin), pulling out sebaceous formations from the pores. However, the use of the device is contraindicated if:

  • rosacea;
  • tissue infiltration;
  • tendency to bruises and allergic reactions;
  • inflammatory processes on the skin, infectious lesions;
  • excessive sensitivity of the epidermis;
  • herpes;
  • hypertension;
  • pregnancy.

Before the session, it is recommended to test the operation of the device on a small area.

The application process is simple:

  1. Clean and disinfect the skin.
  2. Slowly move the device over the skin (the time is specified in the instructions and may vary depending on the specific device, usually 5–7 minutes).
  3. Wash your face with cool running water, apply a special pore-tightening gel to your face, or make a mask with the same properties.


Vacuum cleaner pulls impurities out of pores

After use, the device requires disinfection.

The procedure is carried out 1–2 times a week.

When choosing a device, it is useful to pay attention to additional attachments that expand the functionality of the device: massage attachment, brush attachment, sponge attachment for applying makeup.

The following devices are popular among consumers:

  • spotcleaner;
  • Panasonic EH2511;
  • Goldseaside ENM 876;
  • Gezanne ITC;
  • Hailicare et al.

For a vacuum pore cleanser to be effective, as stated on the manufacturer’s website, you need to steam the skin; few people do this at home. If you simply wash your face, you will not get the expected effect.

In a cosmetologist’s office, the doctor selects the method of cleansing and procedure strictly according to indications, taking into account the characteristics of your skin. Hot steam, although it consists of water, actually severely dehydrates the skin. Steaming is contraindicated for those who have signs of rosacea, rosacea, dermatosis, acne, as steaming will lead to even greater hypertrophy of the vascular wall, an increase in foci of redness and the number of inflammatory elements.

Steaming and subsequent mechanical cleansing is a rather traumatic operation; the pores are stretched, and after exposure to a vacuum they may not shrink back. If there is inflammation or redness, it may get worse.

I really encourage a good regular cleansing, but many people, when they get their hands on such a beauty gadget, go overboard. And aggressive effects on the skin lead to the destruction of the hydrolipid barrier and the appearance of increased sensitivity to temperature changes, cosmetics, and so on.

Each method has indications and contraindications. Home care, the use of beauty gadgets, salon procedures - all these are suitable topics for discussion with your cosmetologist.

Maria Merekina, dermatocosmetologist at the Yulia Shcherbatova Clinic

https://daily.afisha.ru/beauty/6600-v-instagrame-nabiraet-oboroty-pylesos-dlya-por-otodvinte-edu-podalshe/

I bought this device (Spotcleaner) after seeing an advertisement. It didn't cost much, but they promised a good effect. I was immediately disappointed, so I’m surprised that this product is still on sale and is actively advertised as a means to improve the condition of facial skin. So, about the device itself. It runs on a battery. The principle is simple: the device draws air into itself and, supposedly, blackheads should be pulled out along with it. That is, the promised result is getting rid of blackheads. In fact, the traction is not enough to pull out everything that is firmly held in the pores. If you keep it for a long time, you might even end up with a hematoma. In general, the thing is completely useless, I don’t even advise you to think that it will help.

Ultrasonic scrubbers

A scrubber is a device with a paddle attachment through which ultrasound is delivered, penetrating into the deep layers of the skin and pushing out impurities from the pores. The use of the device is contraindicated when:

  • feeling unwell;
  • pustular and inflammatory rashes;
  • oncology;
  • high temperature;
  • blood diseases;
  • facial nerve paralysis;
  • cardiovascular pathologies;
  • epilepsy;

Mode of application:

  1. Cleanse the skin.
  2. Treat your face with an antiseptic solution.
  3. Apply a special cleanser designed for scrubbing.
  4. Select the intensity of the impact. It is recommended to start with minimal values, gradually increasing them from procedure to procedure. Set the time (specified in the instructions for the specific model).
  5. Before the timer signal, move the spatula over problem areas without pressing or stretching the epidermis.
  6. Wash with running water and apply a pore-tightening product.

Depending on the specific model, it is recommended to clean it once every 7–10 days or once every 1–1.5 months.


The scrubber pushes impurities out of pores using ultrasound

Purchasing a device will be more rational if the device has additional operating modes. For example, peeling, toning, lifting.

In demand:

  • Gess Star Face 685;
  • Travola AH8546A;
  • Beauty Star;

I’ll tell you why Zemits Skin Expert is so good and why it is now my main skin care assistant. The device can be used both in the salon and for home use. The kit comes with such clear instructions with step-by-step application that it is very difficult to do anything wrong. I have combination skin, with blackheads, and prone to acne breakouts. The pores are not wide. Therefore, before the procedure, I lightly scrub my face and begin to move a spatula along the damp face and massage lines. The procedure does not cause any negative or painful sensations. I am fair-skinned, and my face turns red during the procedure. On the other 4 people I tried it on, there was no such reaction. Pros: Efficiency and painlessness of procedures; Two intensities of exposure H (strong) and L (weak); Ease of Management; detailed instructions; Effective skin cleansing - goodbye blackheads and pimples; the skin is soft and toned; the procedure can be done 2 times a month; The device is easy to clean - to disinfect it, just wipe the blade with an antiseptic; easy to charge; nice colors; Savings - one procedure in the salon costs from 300 UAH, the scrub quickly pays for itself. Cons: many contraindications; redness of the skin after the procedure. For me, the scrub has become my main assistant in the fight for clean and healthy skin. In tandem with my care, they make my skin more beautiful and healthier.

When can and cannot be used with a Uno spoon? 99

The main function of the tool is to remove comedones and excess sebum. It is used for mechanical cleaning of problematic and oily skin. The Uno spoon can be used at home, but it is better to carry out professional cleaning in a cosmetologist's office. When a patient independently squeezes out blackheads* on the nose or other parts of the face, there is a risk of developing inflammation, infection, injury, and tissue irritation.

There are also a number of contraindications to using the Uno spoon:

  • dry skin, hypersensitivity;
  • rosacea;
  • inflammatory rashes;
  • dermatological diseases (furunculosis, demodicosis, etc.).

It is better to treat blackheads by consulting a dermatologist.

Indications for the procedure and its results

Every day, a large amount of impurities invisible to the eye accumulate on the surface of the face. Mixing with sebum and dead epidermal cells, they clog the excretory ducts of the sebaceous glands, which leads to the appearance of open and closed comedones. They can become inflamed, transforming into papules (nodules) and pustules (ulcers) - acne develops.

Various types of pollution are dangerous not only due to the appearance of acne. Because of them, the skin cannot fully “breathe”, participate in water-salt metabolism and remove metabolites. Her immunity and quality are noticeably reduced and she ages faster. Not to mention the fact that blackheads, spots and rashes are not aesthetically pleasing and reduce self-esteem.

Mechanical facial cleansing by a cosmetologist is important and beneficial for the skin. It is recommended to resort to it if you have:

  • comedones;
  • enlarged pores;
  • excessive fat content;
  • peeling;
  • uneven complexion;
  • signs of skin aging;
  • rashes and acne elements.

The procedure helps to get rid of not only visible problems, but also prevents their occurrence. It must be repeated every 2 - 3 months for dry and normal skin, and once every 1.5 - 2 months for oily skin.

Timely removal of contaminants is a mandatory stage of comprehensive care at any age. You can evaluate its results after 2–3 days, when the skin “calms down” and the redness finally goes away. You will be able to see how its color has improved, the pores have narrowed, the surface relief has been leveled and the tone has increased. Your facial skin will radiate purity, health and attractiveness.

How to properly squeeze out large blackheads* with a Uno spoon? 99

Cleaning procedures using a Uno spoon are best done in a cosmetologist’s office. First of all, the specialist needs to prepare the skin for intensive mechanical cleaning. To do this, you should remove makeup and steam your face to loosen the stratum corneum of the epidermis and open the pores. Before cleaning, the instrument must be treated with a disinfectant compound, and gloves are put on your hands.

At the beginning of the procedure, facial treatment is performed with a larger recess, which is pierced with small holes. It helps to quickly get rid of dead cells and fatty deposits on the face. Manipulations are performed in a certain direction:

  • on the nose – up the back;
  • on the forehead - from the eyebrows up;
  • on the cheeks – from the temples to the bridge of the nose;
  • on the chin - from bottom to top.

The strainer should be used to make line-like movements, applying slight pressure. The skin must be held with your fingers to prevent injury. If a spoon with holes becomes clogged, it must be thoroughly washed and treated with an antiseptic.

A notch with one hole helps squeeze out comedones. To quickly and correctly remove the fat plug, it must be placed in the very center of the spoon opening. Lightly pressing the tool with an offset will help extract the contents of the comedone.

The final stage of the procedure is antiseptic treatment of the face and application of a drying mask. After cleansing, the skin is lubricated with a cream that contains soothing and anti-inflammatory components. After the procedure, red spots and swelling may appear, so it is better not to perform mechanical cleaning before an important event.

What is mechanical facial cleansing?

The procedure involves manual manipulation - the cosmetologist manually cleanses the facial skin using a sterile metal instrument.

  • Using a spoon of Uno cleanses the pores.
  • A strainer removes excess sebum (sebum) and dead epidermal cells (the top layer of skin).
  • Using a Vidal loop, open and closed comedones (blackheads and milia) and non-inflammatory acne are opened and removed.

With proper preparation and careful implementation, mechanical facial cleansing does not cause pain and takes about 40–90 minutes. It is carried out in several stages:

  • cleansing the face of surface impurities and makeup;
  • steaming the skin to open pores;
  • drying the surface of the face from moisture;
  • antiseptic treatment;
  • manual and instrumental manipulations with facial skin;
  • repeated antiseptic treatment;
  • soothing care (masks);
  • applying cream according to skin type.

At first glance, it may seem that the method of mechanical facial cleansing comes down to simply squeezing out problematic skin elements - sebaceous plugs, blackheads, white pimples, papular and pustular rashes. However, it is not! The procedure is subject to strict principles of cleansing the excretory ducts of the sebaceous glands.

All manipulations are performed against their progress:

  • from the side surfaces of the face to its center;
  • in the forehead area - from bottom to top;
  • from the wings of the nose to its back.

Thanks to this, the contents of clogged pores are removed as deeply and effectively as possible, and the cleaning process itself is painless and does not injure the skin.

Why can’t you squeeze out blackheads* at home? 99

Many owners of problem skin wonder whether it is necessary to remove blackheads* using a Uno spoon? It should be noted that performing such manipulations is only permissible in a cosmetology salon. But why?

The fact is that if you handle the tool ineptly, the risk of infection increases significantly. If you do not want your face to become swollen or remain problematic for a long time, entrust mechanical cleaning to a professional cosmetologist.

Many people who are not familiar with the technology of performing the procedure have a strong physical effect on the skin. This leads to injury to the epithelium and blood vessels, increasing the risk of developing rosacea.

At the slightest violation of antiseptic rules during manipulations to remove blackheads*, the skin can become infected. As the infection spreads throughout the body, it quickly penetrates the tissues and provokes the risk of an inflammatory rash. In the absence of proper treatment, this can result in furunculosis.

An equally common consequence of self-removal of blackheads* is tissue scarring. If a lot of force is applied when squeezing out a comedone, scars and scars may remain on the skin. This is why many dermatologists recommend entrusting the process of mechanical skin cleansing to professionals.

How to choose the right remedy for blackheads: a mini-guide

It all depends on your skin type. Which one is yours?

The problem is the tendency to become fatty:

  • you need comprehensive care: gel, tonic, cream, scrub and mask;
  • choose products for daily use;
  • Pocket-sized products will come in handy - for example, matting napkins.

Problem – combination skin:

  • Enough gel, lotion and mask;
  • give preference to textures that allow you to apply the product only to the T-zone.

Problem – dry or sensitive skin:

  • your choice – cream or mask for local application (a fabric mask will no longer work);
  • avoid drying cosmetics;
  • Pay attention to anti-allergenic, non-comedogenic care.

Do I need to squeeze out blackheads*?

If you have clear skin and, apart from open comedones, do not notice any other elements of acne, it is too early to sound the alarm. But it’s still worth going to a cosmetologist for cleaning. In addition to mechanical, there are other ways to cleanse the skin. A specialist will tell you which one is right for you.

If, in addition to blackheads*, you often have closed comedones, papules, and pustules, then you need a more thorough examination by a dermatologist and the prescription of complex treatment.

For mild to moderate acne, the doctor may prescribe azelaic acid, for example, Azelik®5,9 gel. Twice a day it should be applied to dry skin after cleansing5.

Effective methods to get rid of blackheads

Not all of these methods of cleansing the skin and removing blackheads are universal, but you definitely need to know about them.

  • Cosmetics Dermatologists advise choosing a range of care from one brand and using it daily. The least that cosmetics can do against blackheads is to noticeably lighten them and keep the pores clean after a visit to a cosmetologist.
  • Pharmacy preparations Complexes of biologically active substances for problem skin should contain zinc, vitamin A, B vitamins, silicon and magnesium, which reduce the production of sebum by the sebaceous glands and dilute it. But be prepared to disciplinedly monitor your dietary supplement intake with a doctor.
  • Salon procedures From mechanical cleaning to deep chemical peeling - in the salon you can get any service for cleaning and tightening pores with a prolonged effect. Entrust your face only to qualified dermatologists and be prepared for the fact that the procedures will not work on you - this is possible if the problem is deep inside, and not in the skin layers.
  • Homemade recipes The rating of homemade remedies for blackheads puts mixtures with parsley, yeast, celandine, salt, soda and other kitchen “residents” in first place. Doctors are pessimistic: these products are likely to cause allergies, and gruel with salt and soda will lead to dehydration, which is much more unpleasant than clogged pores.
  • Diet and maintaining hydration Proper nutrition and one and a half liters of water per day are suitable for both men and women. In the long term, an active and healthy approach to life normalizes metabolism and makes the skin clearer. In addition, a diet rich in zinc, alpha-lipoic acid and retinol (and these are the same fruits and vegetables, herbs, beef, dairy products) balances the composition and viscosity of sebum.

Cosmetology devices

Now there are convenient and compact facial cleansing devices on sale that can be used almost daily at home. Such products are essentially brushes that rotate and create slight vibration, providing deep, uniform and versatile cleaning. Most factory brushes are equipped with a built-in timer, which allows you to control the exposure time of the device on different areas of the face. Among the effective devices are:

  • Clarisonic Mia 2. This product is capable of oscillating in different directions - right and left, which provides especially effective cleaning of pores.
  • Face Beauty from T. M. Braun. This device comes with several attachments - for different skin types, as well as for different tasks (deep cleaning of pores, peeling and applying cream or serum).
  • Beurer FC45. This is one of the simplest devices, which allows the nozzle to move only in a circle, but is capable of working at different speeds - for delicate cleaning and for deeper cleaning. The product runs on batteries.
  • Foreo Luna 2. This brush differs from previous options in a completely different appearance. There are several different types of such devices on sale - for different skin types. Luna 2 cleanses the skin with pulsations, and the back of the brush provides an effective anti-aging massage. The product is made of medical silicone and is completely waterproof. Such a device is, of course, not cheap, but judging by the reviews, it is very effective.
  • Set from Faberlic. This device has four replaceable attachments - a pumice stone for deep peeling, a sponge for washing and small micro-peeling, a brush for washing and a massage attachment. The Faberlic facial cleansing device is quite cheap, but judging by the reviews, it does not always live up to expectations. It is very convenient that, if necessary, you can purchase replacement brushes, extending the service life of the device.

You can use various gel products and foams with facial cleansing devices. The use of scrubs is not recommended, as abrasive particles during operation of the device can injure the skin. Manufacturers do not recommend using such devices if you have inflamed pimples on your face, since using a brush in such a situation can only aggravate the problem.

Universal device

This blackhead remover can be purchased as a separate device with non-removable tips. It is convenient to use this device from QVS. The company produces many tools and accessories that are perfect for quality skin care.

The applicator allows you to remove single comedones using a loop, as well as pierce large blackheads with a needle. If you use the tool correctly and disinfect it, you can perform such procedures yourself. As a result, the skin takes on a well-groomed appearance.

The use of special tools in facial skin care not only simplifies the procedure, but also makes it more professional and safe.

Healing period

It is recommended to perform the procedure in the evening. After cleaning, you should not go outside or actively sweat. It is recommended to avoid contact of fabrics with water. It is advisable to relax and provide your body with a healthy night's sleep.

By morning, any possible redness will subside and the damage will heal. You can perform regular washing, which is recommended to be supplemented with the use of an antiseptic, lotion or decoction of medicinal herbs. The skin can be lubricated with your usual cream. It is recommended to avoid full makeup (foundation, powder, blush) for 1–2 days.

After the procedure, it is not recommended to engage in sports, visit the bathhouse or swimming pool for 1–2 days. After washing, use an antiseptic, lotion or herbal decoction. It is recommended to switch to medicinal cosmetics, which will be selected correctly by a cosmetologist.

Vidal loop

The tip is presented in the form of a small loop. It is made of metal, like the rest of the device. The tool allows you to eliminate pore contamination. How to use the blackhead removal tool? The skin must be cleaned of dirt, and then the face should be steamed. The loop should be positioned so that the black dot is in the middle. You need to press on the tool to remove the contents of the pore.

It is important to be careful when using the loop. It has thin edges, so strong pressure can cause damage to the skin. If the contents do not come out, you need to steam the skin even better or use another attachment. The Vidal loop is great for blackheads that protrude above the surface of the skin.
