According to Dr. Maiman, the “gold standard” of blackhead removal tools is a stainless steel comedone extractor. The best part? They are safe to use on sensitive skin and will only cost you a few bucks. Place the blackhead in the middle of the extractor “loop” and gently push on the skin while slowly dragging the tool across the area. If the blackhead releases with ease, there ya go! If not, that’s your indication to let it be and seek a pro.

Once done, use the comedone extractor side, following the previous directions on those pesky guys!
