Pore cleansing blackhead removal strips are the easiest and fastest way to remove blackheads. Unlike other pore-cleansing strips, which often irritate the skin, the MDacne Blackhead Strips contain an oil-free moisturizer to reduce irritation, making them suitable for all skin types, including sensitive skin.

It is recommended to use the MDacne Blackhead Removal Strips 1-2x/week in the evening after you wash your face. 

Here are some tips:

     Step 1 - Cleanse your face with your an effective anti-acne medicated cleanser
     (such as MDacne). The cleanser will gently clean your skin, removing dirt, oil, and
     bacteria while softening the blackheads and preparing them for easy removal. 

     Step 2 - Use *clean* hands to dampen your nose and apply the strip. Beware that
     your nose should be very wet (dripping water) when you apply the strip. Wait 10-15
     minutes until the strip hardens and gently remove. 

     Step 3 - At night, apply a medicated treatment cream (like MDacne) to treat active
     acne and prevent future blackheads and pimples.
