What to use instead of acne needles?

Having pimples on the face is a very annoying thing. People prefer a fair and clean face rather than a face with pimples. If you have acne on your face, you can use a acne needle to prick it, but you must disinfect the acne needle with alcohol when picking the acne. But sometimes, we lose the acne needle, or forget to bring it with us when we go out. When we don’t have time to buy one, what should we use to replace the acne needle?

Can I use a comedone needle to treat closed comedones?

Closed comedones can be treated with a acne needle. Generally speaking, closed comedones are different from acne. Although they are also small pimples, they will not cause redness or pain. The skin will just feel bumpy when you touch it with your hands. Under normal circumstances, closed comedones can be pricked with an acne needle. Because there are more bacteria on your hands, if you squeeze them directly with your hands, it may cause skin infection and may leave acne marks. This problem can be avoided by using an acne needle. Therefore, closed comedones can be treated with acne needles.

The skin on the face is relatively fragile and easily infected by some bacteria, and our hands are often exposed to various bacteria. Therefore, if you squeeze the closed comedones directly with your hands, it is very likely that the facial skin will be infected, causing skin inflammation. Using a sterilized acne needle to remove closed comedones can prevent the skin from being infected by bacteria and can also effectively remove closed comedones.

What can I use instead of acne needles to eliminate acne?

1. Steaming facial cleansing method

Fill a large basin with hot water, hold your breath, place your face on the basin mouth, wrap it tightly with a wet towel, and steam your face. Repeat this several times and then wash your face with warm water. Do this 2 to 3 times a week to keep facial pores unobstructed. Results will generally be seen in two weeks.

2. Simple rock sugar conditioning method

Add 250 grams of rock sugar to about 750 ml of water and bring to a boil. Drink while warm, once every 2 to 3 days. Generally, the disease will heal itself after taking it 6 to 7 times. While taking rock sugar water, the symptoms may sometimes worsen, but they will gradually subside on their own after 1 to 2 days.

3. Mung Bean Powder Acne Mask

Cook mung bean powder into a paste and wash the affected area before going to bed at night. Apply this paste for 2 weeks and the acne will gradually disappear.

4. Fresh milk to remove acne

Boil half a cup of fresh milk, wait until it is warm, wet a cotton ball with it, and gently apply it on your face. After a while, the milk will penetrate into the pores and soften the blackheads. Wash it off with clean water and then gently squeeze out the blackheads. A small amount of vegetable oil can be added to milk, which can help remove acne faster without leaving any marks.

5. Gentle Exfoliation

Blackheads are not pimples, but pores where oil and keratin accumulate. Therefore, use a mild exfoliator to remove old keratin, open the pores, and allow oil to be discharged normally. This is a relatively simple and effective method, but it is only effective for shallow acne. For deeper acne, it can be squeezed out through cosmetic techniques.

6. Deep cleaning enhances the effect

The mask has the function of absorbing oil and deep cleansing, which can clean pores, making them clean and transparent, and making acne easier to remove. For example, deep-sea mineral mud and natural clay have a cleansing effect, which can make surface acne float to the surface, remove it through facial washing, and shrink pores.

7. Use a peel-off mask

The use of peel-off mask should be determined according to your skin condition. It is recommended not to use it if your skin has aging signs or sensitive skin. In addition, even if your skin is in good condition, peel-off masks should not be used frequently. Peel-off masks can tear off dirt, acne, etc. on the surface, but the epidermis will also fall off, so it is only suitable for oily and combination skin.
