A General Overview Of The Blackhead Remover Tool

By Leigh Bean


It seems that for many the cure to acne is at the end of their fork, not in a prescription pad, a famous person once said. This truism may apply to a host of skin conditions. In a world that is increasingly image conscious, having problems with one's face seems to be one predictor of how such a person will feel about themselves. The road to better self image may start with a blackhead remover tool.

The ugly skin lesions come from pores being partially plugged by oil, bacteria and dead skin. The epidermis covering such plugs then grows darker. If the vent is completely sealed, a white head is born. If these are not dealt with immediately, the body's immune system will attack the skin around the blockage, resulting in a permanent scar.

Luckily for individuals with this condition, these can be gotten rid of with the right tools. Ordinary extractors are quite common, and work well. This device has two ends; the lancet bit is used to poke a hole in the lesion. The extractor, which is what the alternate end is called, is what is used to remove whatever is under the skin plug.

The tool is popular with professionals beauticians and normal people alike. The business ends of such tools are fixed in stainless steel handles; the entire device is finished with a mirror effect. More expensive extractors are finished in real gold or titanium. The lancet part may be tiny or huge, while the extractor part will have a minuscule hole. The double spoon instrument is another type of extractor.

This is of particular interest for those who have big lesions. Its primary advantage lies in the fact that it does not leave any scars. This small tool has a spoon shaped end imbued with many small holes; these can be anything from seven to nineteen in number. This is the end to use on large lesions. The other end is also spoon shaped, but smaller; this is used on smaller zits.

The device is superb for open zits, but stumbles as far as closed white heads are concerned; a lancet needs to be used on these first before it can work its magic. The other instrument type is the fine loop extractor, which some know by different names. This is highly flexible, and can be used on many lesion types. This tool has loops on both ends, and is preferred by a large number of professional beauticians for its simplicity and effectiveness.

The device has the capacity to accurately extract lesions without damaging the rest of the skin. It is extremely important to clean the tools with disinfectant after use, and to avoid sharing them; this can not only spread a lesion infection, but also diseases like hepatitis, and the human immunodeficiency virus, which causes aids.

Before the tools are used, it is important to clean around the lesion first. This is to prevent infection spreading, as some of these zits are partly the result of bacterial infection. Warm water is recommended for use because it opens up the pores, making extraction easier. Experts also discourage the use of too much pressure on the tools, as this could damage the skin and cause scarring. Misuse of a blackhead remover tool is a dangerous thing.
