Not Preparing Skin Before Extraction

It is obviously normal to extract the blackhead. However, it is very necessary to prepare your skin first for the extraction. And this preparation includes the proper cleansing and washing of the face. Because it will get rid of the dirt and hence removal of the blackhead will become much easier.

Not Using Sterile Tools

Now, this is one of the most ignored facts. You need to use the properly sterilized tools while dealing with the skin. Particularly, if you are removing the problem of the blackhead you will have to make sure the tools are clean. Otherwise, they will multiply the number of the blackhead.

Squeezing With The Hands

This is a very common practice that we squeeze the blackheads with our hands. This will eventually result in the formation of sores and infections. Which can, later on, result in the formation of severing kinds of tumors as well. Also, it is not necessary that our hands are clean. And as we studied above that the unclean and improper hygiene only aggravates the situation. Rather than providing a solution for it.

Therefore, it is recommended to make sure that you avoid such minor mistakes.
