    Default idiotic way i got rid of blackheads

    Ok i did something really dumb I heated up water in a cup in the microwave, for 45 seconds i put a q-tip in the water and pressed it into the blackhead area until i could get it out the water was scalding hot, and it peeled some of my skin off now i have two round circles that are white on the inside and red on the outside. How long will it take to heal i am putting aloe vera & neosporin on the two circles. I am an idiot! And I have to work tommorow so I don't want to have two obvious circles on my forehead. Any help will be appreciated, feel free to bash I know that was a No No! lol

    You could try putting oil on your face, I know it sounds contradicting. But some oils are good for your skin and help it heal fast.

    if it got rid of your blackheads, I am tempted to try it.... ;P

    I've actually done something similar... I heated up a tiny bit of water in the microwave for a few seconds, added a bit of sea salt, and dabbed it on any blemishes with q tips before bed... Actually worked pretty well. Check water temp first!

    I would say aloe and neosporin are probably your best bets... Maybe some vitamin E as well.

    Maybe try some aloe? Make sure it it's pure, no alcohol in it. I use avacado oil in small amts. on my skin & hair, it contains natural vitamin e.

    silvadene ointment is the only one i haven't tried. I wouldn't suggest this way to get rid of blackheads... ouch! It really got rid of them & two layers of skin with the blackheads... I'd rather have the black dots, then big red indentions on my forehead. I'm using bio oil, vitamin e oil, aloe vera, and neosporin, maybe its too soon, but nothing is getting rid of the hot burning feeling.

    Silvadene ointment has silver in it, a natural antibiotic. Should heal the burns quicker, the main purpose, and the anti bacterial effect could work on the black head too.

    Hmmm maybe something cylindrical? A tube just a bit bigger in diameter than the black. This would press down on the derma all around the black head without forcing the black head deeper. After a hot towel of course, since a black head is coagulated body oil. Heat, properly applied should help out.

    Of course, I am not a Doctor, and didn't stay at a holiday inn express either.

    Pharmacy. It is with the first aid stuff usually as it is a treatment for burns.

    My little one horse town has neither a CVS or a Wahlgreens so I can't tell you if either has some.

    I think its too late to use it now, but I am using that for future references! I am sure CVS or Walgreens has some, they have all the odds and ends... I actually found the best selection of tampons today (thought someone might like the 411) at walgreens. A whole box of just lites... and a whole box just of super plus...

    I had tampons and pads in the first aid kit in my truck. The tampons were for the really bad nose bleeds some people get in the dry climate here. The pads are the awesomest bandages for bad cut. Sterile, individually wrapped, and 1/10th the cost of normal bandages, so easy to have many.
