<p>A blemish extraction means is disclosed which allows for sanitary removal of facial blemishes via force with a reduced risk of inadvertent skin cuts and/or infection. In one embodiment, the blemish extraction means is a sleeve having a reinforce, substantially rigid end portion, and is adapted to be worn over a person's index fingertip. The index fingertip is inserted into the sleeve so that the fingernail tip is in contact with the sleeve's substantially rigid end portion. With a first sleeve on the right hand index finger and a second sleeve on the left hand index finger, a person positions the end portions of the two sleeves on opposite sides of a blemish to be removed, and then firmly presses the respective sleeve end portions towards one another and into the dermis in a pinching fashion so as to push the blemish away from the dermis. Once forced away from the dermis, the blemish is removed using one or both sleeve end portions.</p> |
