While blackheads do not pose any significant threat to your health, they can negatively affect your confidence and self-image, causing you to be more self-conscious than you would like! As such, it is an entirely personal decision as to whether you should seek treatment for blackhead removal or not. That said, if you do wish to get rid of your blackheads, which is commonly the desire of many people, we strongly recommend against picking, popping, or squeezing your blackheads, as scars can develop from such actions. Instead, your safest bet is to seek the advice of an acne specialist or dermatologist who can get you set up with the right products and treatment for your specific skin type and condition.
