I don't think I'll ever look at a rice
krispy treat the same way again I can't

you were born to do this
hi friends
[Music]
I am here with the one and only dr.
Sandra Lee aka dr. pimple - yes
who makes gross clam I'm so excited
because she's gonna help us break it
down and get back to basics what is a
blackhead a blackhead is what we also
call an open comedone and that is a pore
on your skin that when it has been
clogged with dead skin cells debris oil
and the reason it looks black is it's
because it's open to the surface of the
skin so what happens is this dirt in
there turns dark and oxidizes kind of
like an apple that you cut and you leave
open you know it turns brown so that's
essentially what's happening there a
white head is a closed comedone they're
both the same kind of thing it's a pore
that's clogged but a white head has a
cover of thin skin over it which is why
it's white because it hasn't been
exposed to oxygen that makes sense
I love the Apple analogy and how do you
get them well we get blackheads really
because we are just living our lives I
mean they have to do with oil and
hormones genetics blackheads are just
part of being alive so two men everybody
gets a clogged pore yes and what should
you do if you get that well you don't
have to do anything with them but if
they bother you you can try to extract
your blackheads which is you know using
an instrument or your fingers to squeeze
them out or you can really just try to
keep your skin clean there are
over-the-counter products like retinol
or salicylic acid that really can help
to minimize blackhead formation so you
have some visuals this is a rice
krispies treat and it actually now is a
simulated skin with blackheads in it so
here we have some blackheads so I'm
gonna show you how to proper way how to
extract lacquers and you can do them
yourself and not hurt anybody okay
talk me through that I'm gonna use
what's called a comedone extractor I
love this this instrument so what you
want to do first is Prime the skin
that's how we have a towel here okay
has a war as a warm compress lay it
across your your skin to soften those
pores to soften the debris within the
pores correct and then once you're nice
and soft and make sure the area is nice
and clean and that your instrument is
nice and clean and see there's a loop on
both sides I prefer the larger loop but
what you want to do is place the loop so
that the block head is in the center
that you can see but the key is with
this is that you're applying even
pressure on all sides you're not trying
to push and drag it across your skin
even pressure and I might be oh did I do
that that's yes you did I don't think
I'll ever look at a rice krispies treat
the same way again is it me it is it's
just frosting and that's a nurse like of
chocolate chocolate yeah there's
chocolate frosting and chocolate y'all
what's really important as after you
have extracted your blackheads use a
little spot treatment cream a little
acne spot treatment cream and just put a
little dot on on areas and now that will
help prevent bacteria from growing the
area and hopefully help to resolve this
you know this irritation that you have
created potentially in the area as
quickly as possible anyone
