I hope you've eaten breakfast already because what I'm about to show you is something short of disgusting — oddly fascinating but still disgusting — and you're going to need a strong stomach. Are you up for it? Good. Let's dive in.
[post_ads]You already know how much I love deep-diving into Dr. Pimple Popper's feed and watching countless clips of deep-rooted blackheads being popped, giant, pus-spewing cysts, and surgery-level lipoma extractions, but for those who don't (I know, we can't all be popaholics), I think I may have just discovered a happy popping medium for those with weaker stomachs but still want to get their pop on: blackhead tweezers.
A Facebook video, which originally gained traction online last November, is making the rounds again thanks to its mesmerizing blackhead-pulling powers. Here's what I mean. In the one-minute clip, which now has more than 95,000 views, someone (who we're hoping is a trained medical profession) is seen gently pulling out dirt, debris, and blackheads out of clogged pores on someone's nose using a pair of sterilized silver tweezers. (Oh, and did we mention the whole thing is magnified for your viewing pleasure?)

It appears the tweezers were specifically designed to help someone squeeze out whatever's hanging out deep within pores to the surface, thanks to their curved hooks. Yeah, I'm impressed. And apparently so is Dr. Pimple Popper, a.k.a. Los Angeles-based dermatologist Sandra Lee, who recently shared a similar clip trying out the tool: "How do you like it like this? Trying out some blackhead tweezers on this nose! 👍🏼 or 👎🏼 ?? #drpimplepopper ✌🏼❤️🔥," she wrote on Instagram.

Now, we're not saying these tweezers are 100 percent safe for at-home use, but we will say that if Lee, who is a trained surgical professional, is beginning to use them on her own patients, we're guessing these are a safe bet in extracting clogged pores. Now, gather 'round and watch the full minute clip of zoomed-in goo being ripped from pores — you won't be disappointed (or maybe you will, but that's on you).
