Squeezing out blackheads on the face in the salon and at home. Removing blackheads from the nose at home

Almost EVERY girl now has blackheads. There is a lot of advice on the Internet on the topic “how to get rid of blackheads forever?”

The problem is that the black masks advertised on Instagram that pull out blackheads are a lie. Nothing will help get rid of blackheads FOREVER. But there is the right remedy, helping to keep pores clean - mechanical (manual) facial cleansing.

My problems with my face began to appear when I was 12 years old. Enlarged pores, blackheads on the nose/chin, then cheeks were added to these areas.

I tried long and hard to deal with this problem on my own, but nothing had any lasting effect.

At the age of 15, I visited a cosmetologist for the first time in my life and had mechanical facial cleansing.

I will say right away that in this matter the main thing is to find a professional in his field. I have been looking for him for 3 years and for 2 years now I have been visiting only my master. Whatever problem there is with my skin, my cosmetologist will solve everything.

So, move on to the actual cleaning IN THE SALON.

The cost of mechanical facial cleansing in the salon is 2000 rubles.

Before mechanical cleaning I have a session peeling(usually almond or fruit), this is very important for problem skin.

At first skin is prepared for cleaning: carry out make-up removal, cleanse the skin with peeling.

Next apply to the face special gel for cold steaming skin and cover it all with film. By the way, another cosmetologist I went to before had steam apparatus, which actually steamed the skin. In terms of efficiency, it doesn’t matter at all whether it is a gel or a steam device.

After cold steaming the facial skin, the cosmetologist starts the cleaning itself.

What exactly is manual facial cleansing?

Firstly, you need this procedure if you, like me, have a huge number of blackheads, oily skin, enlarged pores, and acne.

Mechanical cleansing helps improve the appearance of your face by:

• removing pimples/blackheads/blackheads (squeezing them out);
• removal of sebaceous plugs;
• removing remnants of decorative cosmetics (especially foundation), “ingrained” into your skin.

When I was younger, I remember covering myself with foundation like putty. At that time there was no money for expensive and high-quality foundations (oh, poor students) and I had to use what I had enough money for. Basically, these were low-quality products that were not completely removed from the skin and “eaten into” it. And so, when I first came for mechanical facial cleansing, the cosmetologist pulled almost a whole tube of foundation out of my skin. It accumulated in the skin and polluted it, hence the blackheads and sebaceous plugs.

Extrusion of blackheads and comedones can also occur manually(with hands), and with brushing(with special brushes), and with a spoon of Uno.

My cosmetologist begins to press on her face with her hands, and what she cannot squeeze out manually, she presses with the help of a Uno spoon.

After cleaning pores are treated with antibacterial agents, and then soothe the skin with professional masks(my cosmetologist works for Arkady and Christina).

The procedure is completed by applying a protective cream and instructions "don't wash your face until the next morning" .

The RESULT from mechanical (manual) facial cleansing makes me very happy.

It can be seen how

• pores are cleansed and narrowed;
• skin texture leveled out;
• and the skin is velvety to the touch, very soft and smooth.

There is only one PROBLEM : If you have the same moody and oily skin as me, then the result will not last long. That's why Mechanical cleaning should be carried out at least once every 2-3 months.

But my pores take on their previous appearance within 2-3 weeks after cleansing, and I have to traumatize my skin with a cosmetologist every month not only costly, but also unsafe. This is why I SUPPORT THE EFFECT OF CLEAN PORES AT HOME.

HOW DO I DO THIS AND WHAT DO I USE FOR THIS?

1. Cleansing my skin Korean or Japanese foam and perform a soft peeling, this helps remove dead skin particles.
2. I steam my skin with chamomile infusion. We will need two filter bags of chamomile and a pan of boiling water. We tear the bags and throw the contents into boiling water. Next, sit down so that your face is above the pan and cover your head with a towel. As a result, a greenhouse effect is created, our pores open up and it will be easier for us to remove their contents. The cost of a pack with 20 filter bags of chamomile flowers is only 80 rubles, such a pack is enough for 10 procedures = 10 weeks.

   

3. I carry out manual facial cleansing using special tools: Uno spoon, loop, needle tool. They are very affordable, you can now buy them anywhere in sets at a low price (I paid ~150 rubles for a set). The main thing is to treat them before using them to cleanse your face.
4. I treat my skin boric alcohol (acid). I strongly advise you not to skip this point, because with this action you prevent pathogens from entering open pores. The cost of the bottle is 20 rubles at the pharmacy, it will last for a long time.

   
   

5. Soothing the skin. After manual cleaning at home, I definitely apply a mask to my face. To be honest, there is no specific mask; I have too many masks to choose from.

I have the following masks in my arsenal:

• Double action Christina;

  

• Tomato mask from Tony Moly;
• Mizon volcanic ash mask;
• Even regular clay masks will do.






It makes no sense to write the price here, because you can get clay for 20 rubles, you can get Tony-Molivskaya “Pomidorka” for 900, or you can get Christina for 600-1200 rubles. Everyone will choose what they want.

6. I apply protective cream.







On average, home hand cleaning will cost you only 100 rubles per month! This:

✔ economical;

✔ helps maintain results;

✔ the skin needs less masking (the same blackheads).

What is better: mechanical cleaning in a salon or manual cleaning at home?

The results from home manual cleaning cannot be compared with the results from mechanical cleaning in a salon. Naturally, a specialist will do everything more competently and cleaner than our crooked hands. BUT! This home cleaning, although it does not clean out pores 100%, helps keep your nose/cheeks/chin/forehead clean. Those. your pores will no longer be as dirty as they were BEFORE cleansing, which means you will have less to disguise imperfections.

Black dots on the face are a problem that is familiar to many first-hand and occurs among the most different ages. The formation of sebaceous plugs (comedones) is caused by blockage of the glands responsible for the production of sebum.

Their tips, located in the upper layer of the epidermis, become black from contact with dust, dirt, cosmetics and exfoliated layers of the epidermis. Most often, the formation of such pimples, the favorite places of which are the chin, nose and forehead, occurs due to exposure to external factors(dust), improper skin care, use of low-quality cosmetics, hormonal imbalance and deterioration of health.

Squeezing out blackheads with preliminary is the most simple method solutions to the problem, aimed not only at removing unpleasant formations, but also at giving the skin smoothness, velvety and healthy aesthetic appeal. You first need to steam your face - in this case, the sebaceous plugs will come off instantly after light pressure.

Carrying out steaming procedures

The main steaming procedures aimed at high-quality removal of blackheads on the face at home are:

• Steam mask. Boil water in a small saucepan, add a spoonful of herbal infusion (sage, St. John's wort, chamomile), a drop essential oil(lemon, eucalyptus or tea tree) and a little salt. Then you should bend low over the saucepan, cover your head with a thick terry towel and breathe hot air for 15 minutes. It is recommended to cleanse your face before using the steam mask.

• Visiting a sauna or steam bath. It is during such hygienic procedures that the maximum opening of the pores occurs: the effect is equivalent to steam baths. At the same time, it is recommended to use compresses: squeeze out gauze folded in several layers in a hot chamomile decoction and apply it to the facial area. Change the compress as it cools.
• Hot masks. To use them, you will need ready-made formulations characterized by a steaming effect: special strips, hot scrubs, masks with blue clay.

Fighting blackheads: home methods

Squeezing out blackheads on the face should be done after the pores have expanded. Hands should be washed clean, wrapped in a sterile napkin, and fingertips moistened with a solution of alcohol or hydrogen peroxide. You only need to remove easily pimples, squeezing them with your fingers on both sides. If the desired result is not fully achieved, it is better not to overdo it and leave the remaining comedones for the next procedure.

To narrow steamed pores and bring them to their natural state, the treated skin should be wiped with tonic or lotion. Then it is recommended to make a mask that is best for tightening (based on lemon juice, egg white or clay), after which wipe the skin with ice and lubricate with moisturizer. Afterwards, you should definitely give it a break from makeup.

Disadvantages of home skin steaming

The method of steaming the face and then squeezing out blackheads has a number of disadvantages:

• the risk of infection in open facial pores, which can lead to an increase in the number of comedones and the appearance of pimples;
• possible drying of the skin.

Squeezing out blackheads with preliminary cleaning is recommended once every 1-2 weeks; More frequent steaming can lead to enlarged pores and worsen the situation.

Anti-blackhead patch

An alternative to steaming is a cleansing patch, which is glued to the back and wings of the nose, left for the prescribed time according to the instructions and quickly removed. You can prepare this type of strips yourself. To do this, mix warm milk with the gelatin mixture and place in the microwave for 10 minutes.

The swollen warm mass should be applied to the skin, wait until it hardens completely, and then remove. Then the face should be disinfected with infusion of calendula or chamomile and softened with cream. Removing blackheads on the face with gelatin is a fairly effective and widespread method, in which 80% of the dirt present in the pores is cleansed.

Squeezing out blackheads with a rod

With all the variety of devices for cleaning the face, everyone has a covered ballpoint pen - the first assistant in home cosmetic procedures.

Squeezing with a rod is done after steaming the face over herbal-based water steam. Using a pre-disinfected rod, you need to cover the blackheads one by one, with light pressure, and use rotational manipulation to remove the sebaceous plugs. After completing the procedure, the face should be wiped with an antiseptic.

Salon facial cleansing manually

If you are unwilling or unable to carry out the above procedures at home, you can try removing blackheads on your face in a salon. Reviews about the cleaning process and results vary, it all depends on the professionalism of the master, the sterility of the instruments, and the reputation of the establishment.

You can get rid of comedones using several methods, one of which is manual cleaning. Squeezing out blackheads and cleansing the face is done with the hands of a cosmetologist, who uses various tools along the way: spoons, needles, a strainer, etc.

Procedure steps:

• removing dead cells and removing fat using a strainer;
• pore cleansing manually using sterile wipes and instruments;
• disinfection of the face using infrared rays or masks;
• calming actions: cryomassage, darsonvalization, masks.

Features of the hardware method

The hardware method is considered an excellent alternative to the manual one and consists of cleansing the face with special attachments (brushes, vacuum, ultrasound, low-frequency current) attached to a specific device.

Ultrasonic cleaning does not require preliminary steaming, has a cleansing and anti-inflammatory effect on the skin, increases its elasticity and firmness. At problem skin Manual and hardware methods are recommended.

The skin performs the function of breathing, protection, and removes harmful substances from the body, and cleansing the face of blackheads in the salon is necessary to thoroughly remove all the consequences of this “dirty work.” From the inside, toxins come out through the skin, and from the outside it becomes clogged with dirt and sebum. Because of this, the pores become clogged and inflammation appears. This is the first signal to cleanse your face.

Causes of blackheads

Blackheads are pores clogged with oil and dirt. The comedone shaft is hidden deeply, and only a point or tubercle is visible on the surface (if the comedone is closed). The color change occurs due to oxidation processes of the pore contents.

People with oily or combination skin often face this problem.

The prerequisites for the appearance of blackheads are:

• improper diet and diet - it has been noticed that problems are aggravated due to the consumption of fatty, dairy, and carbohydrate foods;
• inappropriate facial care - to ensure that sebum leaves the pores unhindered, it is necessary to carry out exfoliating procedures;
• neglect of hygiene rules - high-quality rinsing of cosmetics is a prerequisite for a clean, well-groomed face;
• use of comedogenic products for facial care - these are products containing talc, mineral oils, silicone;
• problems with the gastrointestinal tract - an increased volume of toxins is excreted through the skin, since the digestive tract cannot cope with this function - in this case, you should consult a gastroenterologist;
• alcohol abuse, smoking - metabolism deteriorates, as a result of which the pores become clogged;
• hormonal imbalance - in adolescence, hormone instability is caused by puberty; in adulthood, the impetus for the formation of blackheads is pregnancy or menopause.

Important! Salon facial cleansing can only remove acne and comedones that have appeared, but after a while, if the causes of their occurrence are not eliminated, they will form again.

When to see a cosmetologist

The decision to cleanse your face of blackheads from a cosmetologist is made individually. Self-cleansing often leads to exacerbation of acne due to poor sanitary conditions. And the lack of tools, lack of mastery correct technique removal of comedones leads to the formation of scars and wounds. Knowing this, you should contact a cosmetologist immediately as soon as the appearance of your face is no longer satisfactory, and cleansers and masks do not give the desired effect.

How to prepare your face for cleansing

Modern salon facial cleansing involves careful step-by-step preparation before the procedure. Cosmetics must be washed off, the face must be cleansed with special products, such as gel, foam for washing, and wiped with lotion. If the pores are very clogged, then apply a mask. The face is steamed with a vaporizer or pore-expanding products are applied - warming creams, a paraffin mask.

Important! You cannot steam your face if you have rosacea, thin epidermis, or asthma.

Types of salon cleaning for blackheads

The salon procedure is aimed at eliminating external contaminants: the keratinized upper layer, acne, comedones, and stimulating blood circulation. If you are interested in which facial cleansing is the most effective, then it is difficult to give a definite answer to this question. Each type has indications and contraindications. The method of eliminating blackheads should be selected by a cosmetologist after analyzing the condition of the face. But if the client himself chooses which facial cleansing is best done in the salon, it is necessary to study the features of each type of procedure.

Mechanical

This technique is especially suitable if the skin is porous and oily.

Indications for the procedure:

• comedones (white and black);
• acne without inflammation.

Contraindications:

• herpes;
• eczema;
• boils;
• rosacea;
• hypertension;
• dry, sensitive skin;
• period of menstruation.

The required tools are a Uno spoon (contraindicated for sensitive skin), Vidal needle. All instruments must be sterile, which is why the procedure should be carried out by a cosmetologist. However, despite all precautions, there is a risk of secondary infection.

Disadvantage of mechanical cleansing: high pain.

Progress of the procedure. The procedure is carried out under good lighting. The master’s task is to ensure that the pores do not close, otherwise the procedure will begin to cause serious discomfort.

When the face has steamed, the cosmetologist removes the softened horny layers without affecting the inflamed areas, and then begins deep cleaning using a Vidal needle and a Uno spoon. Afterwards, the skin is disinfected with infrared light, a liquid with anti-inflammatory properties, such as hydrogen peroxide, and also applying masks with a calming effect. Cryomassage is recommended.

The duration of the procedure is about 20 minutes, after which the pores close on their own. Further cleaning becomes painful, so either a new steaming compress is made or the procedure is postponed to another session.

Mechanical cleansing is considered an outdated technique, but it allows you to thoroughly clean your face when hardware methods fail. It is used as a complement after other types of cleansing.

Vacuum

To carry out the procedure with a vacuum, you need a suction tool, which, under the influence of negative pressure, sucks in the contents of the pores. The appropriate attachment is selected according to the client's skin type. This procedure rarely injures the epidermis and does not cause pain or recurrence of inflammation. However, sensitive skin may experience bruising.

The indications are the same as for mechanical facial cleansing.

Contraindications:

• inflamed acne;
• rosacea;
• dermatitis;
• dry, sensitive skin.

The vacuum method of facial cleansing will not help with deep, old blackheads, so it is complemented by regular manual or mechanical cleansing.

Progress of the procedure. The suction cup moves around the surface of the face in a circle. From time to time, the instrument is sterilized in antiseptic. As a result of these actions, blood circulation improves, the skin becomes more toned, acquires a healthy color, and lymphatic drainage improves.

Pay attention! Cleansing is carried out only after steaming.

After the procedure, the pores are closed by applying soothing agents.

Duration – 15-20 minutes.

Home vacuum devices are available. However, they are inferior to professional devices in terms of functionality and efficiency.

Laser

This is not exactly cleaning if you compare the technique with other options. However, thanks to laser treatment, regeneration processes are launched in the skin and its outer layers are renewed.

Indications for the procedure are:

• pimples with and without heads;
• comedones;
• acne;
• enlarged pores.

Contraindications include:

• exacerbation of acne;
• menstruation period;
• allergy to laser;
• herpes;
• diabetes mellitus;
• neoplasms.

This is a complex procedure. Its essence is that the laser “evaporates” the upper layers of the epidermis, as a result of which the outer layer of cells is then renewed. While some types of procedures can be carried out at home, laser cleaning at home is contraindicated. It must be performed by a specially trained cosmetologist.

Progress of the procedure. Before treatment, an anesthetic cream is applied. And then they begin to cauterize the skin with a laser with a working surface of 1.5x1.5 cm.

The duration is from 20 minutes to 1 hour. Laser cleaning should not be overused; it is carried out once a month, or even less often.

Galvanic

As the name suggests, a galvanic current is applied to the face during the cleansing process. The procedure is painless as a weak current is used. In rare cases, it is felt as a tolerable tingling sensation, and in some cases it is not felt at all.

This is a highly effective procedure that can get rid of deep, old stains, so it is recommended instead of manual cleaning as it is less traumatic. Thanks to electricity, sebaceous plugs dissolve and are brought to the surface, sebum turns into soap, which is removed by a cosmetologist after the procedure.

Indications:

• increased fat content;
• acne and comedones;
• post-acne;
• wrinkles;
• seborrhea.

Contraindications:

• dryness and sensitivity;
• pregnancy;
• vitiligo;
• neoplasms;
• dermatitis;
• presence of pacemakers and electrical implants.

Pay attention! As a result of galvanic cleaning, impurities are removed, blood vessels are strengthened, tone is increased, blood flow and metabolism are stimulated.

Progress of the procedure. A conductive gel is applied to the face. Then the cosmetologist takes a device equipped with an attachment with electrodes. He moves this attachment over the surface of the face in a circular motion. If you use any cosmetic medicinal preparations together with galvanic cleaning, then under the influence of electric current they penetrate much deeper than usual.

After the procedure, the relief is evened out, so the effect is comparable to peeling. There is no need to close the pores, just remove dirt and apply your usual care products.

Duration of procedure: 20 min.

Depending on the frequency of galvanic cleaning, different effects may be observed. If you carry out the procedure no more than once a month, the skin will dry out, which is optimal for high oil content. But if the procedures are abused, sebum is produced more intensely.

Care after cleaning

After cleansing, special facial skin care is required. You will have to observe a number of prohibitions:

• A two- to three-day ban on being outside. Firstly, during this period the face peels off and local redness appears. It looks unaesthetic. Secondly, wind, temperature and humidity changes do not in the best possible way affect the condition of the face.
• You cannot apply decorative cosmetics for three days. The pores are still very sensitive, so they can easily become clogged.
• A one-week ban on visiting the pool, solarium, sauna, bathhouse, and beach. The tan after cleansing lies unevenly, and exposure to high temperatures adversely affects the healing process and accelerates the production of sebum. For the same reason, you should not wash your face with hot water.
• It is forbidden to use scrubs for a week, as the skin is injured and needs time to recover.
• Do not use tap water or soap to wash your face. Soap dries out the skin, and tap water is saturated with chlorine and impurities that are absorbed and cause irritation.

In the first hours, no care is taken: everything that is needed has already been done in the salon. Then, to restore the skin, it is recommended:

• use decoctions of medicinal herbs with an antiseptic effect (chamomile, St. John's wort, celandine, plantain) for rinsing the face;
• wipe your face with alcohol-free lotion (only local damage can be burned with alcohol);
• wash your face with mineral or melt water acidified with lemon juice;
• Make soothing masks suitable for your type 1-2 times a week;
• moisturize it with creams to remove peeling;
• apply gel with aloe extract to damaged areas;
• twice a day, lubricate new pimples (if they appear) with Metrogyl gel
• Use sunscreen to avoid the appearance of age spots.

Possible complications

The skin is exposed to significant impact during facial cleansing, so a reaction is inevitable:

1. Pimples appear on the site of blackheads, which the procedure was aimed at getting rid of. This indicates that an infection has entered the microwounds.
2. Redness accompanies almost any facial cleansing procedure. This is more likely not a complication, but side effect. It goes away on its own after a few hours or days.
3. Vascular spots. A sign of vascular damage during the procedure. If it is a bruise, it will go away in a few days; the burst large vessel will have to be removed in a beauty salon.
4. Scars - appear due to improper technique for removing blackheads, for example manually, and when the contamination is located in the deep layers of the skin.
5. Peeling - occurs due to injury to the upper layer of the epidermis and its peeling.
6. Burns – may appear after laser or ultrasound cleaning due to sensitive skin or lack of experience of the technician.

These consequences are relatively harmless and go away on their own. It is possible to use local healing, anti-inflammatory or moisturizing agents.

Conclusion

You should not neglect salon facial cleansing if there are indications for this. Thanks to the professionalism of the cosmetologist, special tools and devices, the likelihood of complications can be minimized. When cleaning yourself, the likelihood of infection, scarring and other consequences is much higher.

Clean and beautiful facial skin does not need makeup and looks very attractive. Therefore, most girls are concerned about how to get rid of blackheads on their faces, and tirelessly use all sorts of means and methods to achieve this goal.

The desire of girls to look attractive and well-groomed is quite normal. Many procedures, salon services and incredibly expensive cosmetics help them with this.

Girls always pay special attention appearance and skin condition. At a young age, it becomes problem No. 1, since acne and blackheads make it impossible to look 100%.

And if pimples, as a rule, go away over the years, then the issue of blackheads often remains relevant for a long period of time.

Cosmetologists know best how and how to get rid of blackheads on the face. A true professional will quickly and accurately determine the cause of their occurrence, recommend the most suitable treatment methods and the most effective remedies.

But you can also try to cope with acne on your own using folk remedies. Both methods give their results, but in the second case it is worth remembering that the woman takes full responsibility for the effect obtained.

Black spots on the face

Before treating blackheads, you need to figure out what they are and find out the cause of their occurrence.. People usually call this problem blackheads, but its real name is comedones.

It does not pose any threat to life and health, so in this regard you can be calm; the only area where blackheads are considered a real problem is cosmetology.

Their occurrence is not related to a person’s age, gender and skin type; comedones can occur in completely different people. The blackheads themselves are nothing more than subcutaneous fat mixed with street dust in the enlarged pores of human skin.

If we take into account the fact that comedones do not cause any harm to humans, then it may well arise logical question, why delete them? First of all, after getting rid of blackheads, the skin has a neater, well-groomed and attractive appearance.

Another reason for removing comedones from the face is the fact that such an environment is favorable for the proliferation of a large number of bacteria.

If blackheads on the face are not removed in time, this problem can develop into acne, which will be much more difficult to get rid of.

Over time, blackheads can significantly enlarge your pores and give your skin a completely unattractive appearance—another reason to get rid of them.
