What is a blackhead popping?

A blackhead popping is the process of removing a sebaceous filament, more commonly known as a blackhead, from the skin. It involves using appropriate tools or manual techniques to extract the blackhead from a clogged hair follicle. The pore appears dark due to the exposed tip of the sebaceous filament, which is a combination of sebum, bacteria, and dead skin cells. Removing blackheads can help improve the appearance of the skin, particularly on areas like the nose, chin, and forehead, where they tend to appear.
