Watch a doctor extract a 'nest' of deep blackheads in a satisfying 2-part video series

Redeem now

  • Dr. Lalit Kasana, a dermatologist and cosmetologist based in India, has built a loyal YouTube following with his videos of blackhead extractions.
  • His latest blackhead video is a two-part series, initially posted on June 13 and 14.
  • In the videos, Kasana uses q-tips to squeeze out deeply embedded blackheads near a patient's eyes. 
  • One YouTube commenter described it as a "nest" of clogged pores. 
  • Kasana chose the gentle extraction method because the patient had sensitive skin, he explained in the first video's description. 
  • This same q-tip technique is used by other pimple-popping experts on YouTube, too.
  • The real highlight of the series happens around the 3:49 mark in the second video.
  • That's when Kasana removes a clump of oil and dead skin cells and about the size of a chickpea.
  • Watch parts one and two below.
