The appearance of black dots is associated with accumulation of sebum in the ducts, which causes them to become clogged and small nodules are formed under the skin. This problem occurs during adolescence, when hormones begin their active work.
Many believe that black dots will disappear as soon as the process of maturation of the body is completed, but in practice it turns out differently and the struggle with these skin defects is delayed for a long time. They appear on the wings of the nose, chin, forehead, and sometimes spread all over the face.
And then there is quite a logical question - can I extrude the black dots on my own? All cosmetologists and dermatologists answer unequivocally - no! But those who for whatever reason can not resort to professional help still try to get rid of comedones at home. But in this case, you must know about all the subtleties of this procedure, so as not to infect the infection and not exacerbate the skin condition.
Rules for the procedure
Extruding black dots on any part of the face is a rather laborious procedure that must be performed very carefully. Otherwise, you run the risk of a small comedo "grow" a large abscess. Mechanical cleaning can be done by hand or with tools that can be found in a conventional set for manicure.
The procedure is divided into several main stages:
- cleans the skin;
- steaming a face;
- eliminate comedones;
- close the pores.
Warning! The whole procedure takes quite a long time, but if you want to get rid of the black points, you should still have the patience and conduct it according to all the rules.
Cleans the skin
To begin with, you should cleanse your skin with cosmetic milk, but much more effectively with this task will cope with the scrub. You can buy it in the store or make it yourself from natural ingredients.
If you want to use a shop preparation, then when choosing it, make sure that the abrasive particles are not too large. This information you need to provide a consultant.
Home scrub is prepared as follows:
- brew natural freshly ground coffee;
- fluid to drink or merge;
- the precipitate is combined with sour cream, natural yogurt or liquid soap.
Apply the composition on face, gently massage for a minute and rinse with water.

Now we turn to the second stage of the procedure - steaming. This can be done with the help of ordinary boiled water or herbal decoction. It is necessary to bow your head over the container with a hot liquid, cover it with a towel to intensify the effect of steam, and stay in this position for about 10 minutes. The steam will open the pores so that the black dots are easier to remove.
But the steaming procedures may be different:
- "hot" mask is a ready-made product that can be purchased at a cosmetics store. This mask has a steaming effect and opens the pores well;
- sauna or bath - the effect of them is equivalent to the action of the steam bath. In addition, a visit to such an institution will bring additional benefits to the body;
- hot compresses - this cosmetic procedure can be carried out using a decoction of chamomile. It is necessary to moisten a gauze flap folded in several layers, and apply the received compress on the face.

So, the main stage is extrusion of black dots. Moisten fingers in an antiseptic lotion or wipe them with medical alcohol. Press your fingers on both sides of the eel and brush off any dirt that appears with a clean cloth. If the black point is not squeezed out, then leave it alone.
Warning! In this case, too much zeal is not welcome, since this can result in the formation of an inflamed eel or scar.
After cleansing the skin, let it rest for a while. Wipe your face with a lotion for oily skin to close the pores and apply a light cream. At the end of the procedure, it is not recommended to use any make-up.
Using the tools
Now you need to consider how to squeeze out black points with special tools - tweezers and spoons. As mentioned above, they can be found in a manicure kit.
The procedure is as follows:
- a spoon to attach to the problem area, so that the comedon is inside the loop, and lightly press;
- if the black dot succumbed, then on the surface should appear its tail, which must be picked up by tweezers and pulled out;
- thus removes all acne.
This session ends as well as with the above described cleansing - lotion and cream. As a result, your skin will become soft and radiant. And to maintain such a condition, it is necessary to wash the face with a cleanser in the morning and in the evening.
