I've got a couple of really noticable ones on my nose and about half a dozen on my cheeks, some that are visable.
I've asked a couple of people and they've told me to get them out.
i've come to the relisation that they aren't going to come out on theier own as i've seen some people have had the same ones for years, so i'm going to attempt to get them out?
anyone want to give me any directions on extracting them?
i'm thinking of steaming my face with boiling water from a bowl then using two tissues on my fingertips and squeezing both sides of the blackhead, although this may be difficult to do on the nose.
any help would be appreciated before i make the big move!! i don't want any holes after??
i would be pateint and wait but they are not going to come out or dissapear like other spots, these need to be extracted i guess so now is the time for me.

Mandelic acid. READ READ READ before you do anything. You shouldn't use your fingers for extraction. All the information you need is stated here within the threads of the blackhead forum.
