What implement is used to press out blackheads?

  1. Tweezers

  2. Comedone extractor

  3. Scalpel

  4. Brush

The correct answer is: Comedone extractor

Blackheads are formed from an accumulation of dead skin cells, oil, and bacteria that clog the pores. Tweezers, scalpels, and brushes are not suitable options for removing blackheads as they can be painful and cause irritation and infection. A comedone extractor, on the other hand, is a specialized tool designed to gently press out blackheads without causing any damage to the skin. It has a pore-sized opening at one end that helps to apply even pressure on the blackhead and extract it without leaving a scar or creating more problems.
