Removing Blackheads from the Nose

The skin on our face is something that we see every day. Whenever we walk by a mirror, we get a good look at our face. Do you tend to focus on the flaws on your skin such as blemishes and wrinkles? Many people's eyes go right to the blackheads that never seem to go away. Blackheads are the little black dots that are typically on the nose. They are dirt that has been trapped in a pore. When this debris hardens and becomes a black plug, the skin is unable to breathe.

It is not easy to get rid of blackheads unless you know what you are doing. One way to get rid of blackheads is to physically remove them by squeezing them out. Begin by washing your face. Pat your face dry with a clean towel. Place a warm, wet towel on your nose for 15 minutes. Then, dry the nose and apply gentle and steady pressure on both sides of the blackhead. Do not forcefully squeeze and squeeze. This can damage the skin. The best way to remove blackheads is having an esthetician remove them. Getting a facial in a spa is a great way to remove blackheads and prevent them from coming back.
