Introduction
In general, needle extraction causes minimal harm to the skin. Needle extraction involves using a sterilized needle to puncture facial pores and remove toxins from within them, effectively clearing closed comedones, blackheads, and acne. However, it is an invasive procedure that requires breaking the skin. If performed improperly, it may exacerbate skin damage and lead to more serious follicular injury.
