Cleaning the face with a loop * Vidal needle tool, how to use

Many girls face the problem of skin contamination, which results in the appearance of comedones, pimples and other rashes. All this greatly spoils the aesthetic appearance, because in some cases even foundations do not save. There are two ways out of the situation: contact a cosmetologist in a salon and have it cleaned for a considerable amount, or do it yourself at home using a cosmetology loop. It is inexpensive, but the results are amazing. To get rid of rashes for a long time, it is enough to know when to use the loop, how to clean and care for the skin after the session.

What is a Cleaning Loop?

A cosmetic loop is a device made of a material that is absolutely safe for humans – medical steel. It is a stick with a loop at the end, or less often a circle.

In some cases, the tool contains two loops - a larger one and a smaller one. The smaller one can be used on the cheeks and other areas where the pores are usually not too large. The wide ear tool is suitable for cleansing the nose, forehead and chin.

You can purchase a cosmetic loop at a pharmacy or specialty store for a reasonable price. Its price varies from 200 to 500 rubles. depending on the variety. The material used everywhere is the same - medical steel.

Important! Some girls use hairpins based on the loop principle for mechanical cleaning. This method is dangerous because The hairpin does not have a smooth surface, unlike the eyelet.

Mechanism of action

The mechanism of action of the Vidal loop on human skin is based on squeezing out the contents of the pores.

Getting rid of contaminants goes like this:

The cosmetic instrument in question is applied to the contaminated area on previously cleansed skin.
By pressing on the loop and its effect on the pore, impurities come out, leaving the inner layers of the skin.
If the loop is used to clean closed comedones, then before mechanical extrusion, a puncture is made in the middle of the local contamination (bump on the skin) with a needle located at one end of the device. Next, using the steps described above, the dirt comes out through the recess.

Despite the visual similarity of the mechanisms of action on the skin of the Vidal loop and the process of manually squeezing out pimples, blackheads and comedones, there is a colossal difference between them.

The main difference is that when using special cosmetic instruments, there is no damage to blood vessels and capillaries (especially important for people with blood vessels and capillaries located as close as possible to the skin).

After manual cleaning, there is not only a greater chance of infecting the skin, thereby increasing the number of rashes, but also leaving bruises, hematomas and bruises after the procedure.

What is it for?

The device is used for cleaning the face and pores at home. For girls who are accustomed to squeezing out pimples, the loop is a real godsend: its use allows you to remove them in two seconds, without leaving any traces. If all the rules of the procedure are followed, post-acne, unlike finger squeezing, does not appear.

The use of a loop is relevant if:

pimples, comedones, blackheads and acne often appear, the skin is prone to problematic rashes;
enlarged pores are observed where dirt accumulates, and cleansing with foams, masks and gels does not bring results.

It is important to consider that any rash can be a consequence and symptom of health problems, therefore, in addition to cleansing, it is recommended to eliminate the root cause. There are several factors that provoke rashes:

Poor nutrition. Fatty foods contribute to the formation of subcutaneous sebum, as a result of which there is a constant oily sheen on the face and clogged pores. High-carbohydrate foods (sweets, cakes, pastries, etc.) have an equally negative effect - they often cause acne;
Changes in hormonal levels. Having pimples and acne during adolescence is not a cause for concern. In adults, they can signal hormonal imbalances;
Diseases of the gastrointestinal tract;
Frequent severe stress and chronic fatigue negatively affect the condition of the skin;
Wearing synthetic clothing. In this case, rashes appear on the back, chest, and shoulders;
Frequently perform cleaning with scrubs and peelings. This irritates the skin, inflammatory processes begin, and pimples form.

Note! Mechanical cleaning alone will not eliminate the problem; its solution must be approached in a comprehensive manner. If there are too many rashes, it is recommended to consult a cosmetologist or dermatologist - they will prescribe tests that will help find the root cause of the rash.

How can you replace a spoon of Uno at home?

When cleansing your face yourself, a replacement for the Uno spoon can be:

Cosmetology brushes. The use of these devices allows you to eliminate dead layers of the epidermis and prevent the occurrence of ulcers and pimples. There are several models of brushes designed for different skin types and different problems.
A special loop built into one of the tips of the tool rod.
Vidal's needle. Sold as a stand-alone device or included in the kit with a spoon.

The use of each of the listed options is possible only after consultation with a cosmetologist.

How to clean

If you want to get rid of blackheads, it is important to know not only the specifics of the procedure, but also the rules for choosing a loop:

Before purchasing, you should ask what material the tool is made of. If it is not made of medical steel, it is better to find a more suitable option;
Not only the loop, but also the handle should be steel. If the handle is made of plastic or other material, it is not recommended to buy the tool;
The loop should not wobble. To avoid this, just check its durability by lightly pressing on your palm. When purchasing, the instrument must be packaged, but a low-quality loop can be seen with the naked eye. If the ear wobbles during the procedure, the risk of skin injury increases markedly.

It is also very important to properly prepare for the session - its effectiveness depends on this:

The procedure is performed on completely cleansed skin. The presence of cosmetic residues is not allowed - this can cause infection;
The skin must first be steamed. This can be done using a herbal decoction of chamomile: take 3 tbsp. l. dry inflorescences, pour in 1 liter of water, bring to a boil and cook over low heat for 10 minutes. Steaming is carried out over a saucepan. To ensure that the steam only hits your face, just cover yourself with a thick towel.

The loop cleaning itself looks like this:

We disinfect the skin. An alcohol solution or alcohol lotion is suitable for this;
We treat the loop with a disinfectant;
We apply the loop to the skin so that the blackhead or pimple is in the middle of the ear;
Apply light pressure and wait for the pimple to come out. If pressure alone is not enough, repeat again;
We disinfect the instrument again and repeat the same on other problem areas.

Important! During the session, dirt, subcutaneous sebum and removed pimples accumulate inside the ear, so the device must be constantly treated with a disinfectant. If you neglect this rule, you can introduce infection and aggravate the problem.

Remarkably cleanses pores, helps in the fight against large urgs, removes blackheads

May leave a bruise, leaves red circles

I ordered these sticks without even understanding how they really work. I saw it somewhere in a shop, became interested and ordered it. I generally tend to order a bunch of different unnecessary crap =D While the package was being delivered, I came across a review here and finally understood how to use it.

On Bika they are sold in sets of 2, 5 and 20 pieces. I grabbed 5 at once and don’t ask why the hell for $1.69. Two pieces cost $0.98. Damn benefit))

Steel sticks, about 8 centimeters long, with a loop on one side and a needle on the other.

And then I received the parcel, immediately opened it and began to try it. Naturally, I first wiped the stick, otherwise you never know what kind of Chinese little hands would touch it, and took off my makeup. I found a black dot on my nose and pressed it. And what a surprise I was when I realized that this tool really works! It’s true that either I pressed hard, or the area was sensitive, but tears started streaming out of my eyes and my nose was red afterwards.

And so the principle of operation is simple: we bring the loop to the black dot, gently press and move it a little to the side. If necessary, you can pierce it with a needle. By the way, I have quite sharp needles on all 5 pieces. And the loops, although thin in appearance, are durable.

Do I recommend this thing? Probably yes, but more so for those who have skin problems. And it’s not a mandatory subject at all; you can do without it. Well, three stars for possible pain and working only with big problems.

I wanted to put it in another category, after all, everywhere they write Blackhead Blemish Remover Tool Acne Pimple Extractors, but so as not to duplicate it, I’ll write it down here.

This thing, as it turned out, is very necessary, you can order it on buyincoins.com and on ebay.com, the price is $1 for 1 piece, in stores I have seen this for 100 rubles and more.

A stainless steel stick, with an eye on one end and a needle on the other, is designed to remove acne, blackheads and clean pores to minimize the consequences of removing this muck.

For better results, it is better to steam your face, be sure to disinfect everything!!! Place the loop around the pimple/clogged pore, move it and all the nasty stuff will come out. It turns out that we don’t injure anything with our nails, and the cleaning is deeper, you don’t have to press a hundred times in the same place. If necessary, you can use a needle, it is quite sharp. After using this pick, there will be some redness, but it goes away pretty quickly. I really like using it, it allows me to get out something that cannot be removed normally, or where it is not convenient to squeeze out a pimple.

I think that many girls face the problem of clogged pores. The only way out is careful care and cleaning. There are many ways to clean your pores. I decided for myself to try such a mysterious instrument as the Vidal loop and needle. It's a thin, knitting needle-like thing made of stainless steel. On one side there is a loop, and on the other there is a needle with a curved tip. The loop is used to remove comedones or blackheads. You need to place the loop on the surface of the pore and press lightly to release its contents. The needle is used for particularly stubborn blackheads or to pierce the skin to get to the white nodules.

It is clear that hands must be clean and instruments must be sterile. I first steam the skin over steam, then wipe my hands and tools with alcohol and start cleaning. Girls, my advice to you is to press the loop on the skin very carefully, otherwise you may end up with bruises and bruises. After cleansing, I wash my face with warm water and apply a clay mask. I clean it in the evening, and in the morning there is no irritation or inflammation. The face is clean and smooth. It is very easy to spread infection with your hands. And with a loop and a Vidal needle, cleaning is more effective and less traumatic.

If you decide to use a tool to squeeze out pimples, then keep in mind that you can only squeeze out those that are already fully mature, with the so-called white head. We disinfect the pimple and pierce it lightly with a needle. Turn the tool over and lightly press the pimple with a loop. Then we wipe it with alcohol again. You can spread tea tree EM on top. Tea tree oil not only promotes rapid healing and drying, but also additionally disinfects.

I hesitated for a long time whether to take it or not. I took a risk and didn’t regret it. With a minimum of effort I got an excellent result. As most users write, the main thing is to sterilize the instrument and steam the skin. The small loop seemed the most convenient. Thanks make up!

Advantages:

It works and cleans.

Flaws:

I'm a fan of picking my face. Even if it’s a small pimple, then there will be an open face. I can’t help myself. That's just what I see right away. Then, of course, I wipe it with tonic and soothe my facial skin. I can’t say that I have problem-prone skin. Yes there are blackheads. I buy masks, peelings, tonics. But they don’t give much effect. My friend often goes to a cosmetologist. I asked her about facial cleansing. She makes different ones. But he says you can make a mechanical manual one yourself. But of course not like a cosmetologist, but still. To do this, she advised buying a spoon of uno. But I didn't find it in stores. And Vidal's Needle was the same thing. A cosmetologist works in both ways. So, I first cleansed the skin of my face, then steamed it, when the pores opened, I began to clean the pores and blackheads with a loop. I will say that it cleanses very well, but of course you need to not forget to wipe your face. A cosmetologist will certainly do better, and he has a lot of bells and whistles. But not everyone has the money or time to go to him. Therefore the result is like this. The pores were cleaned well, but not all. Cool thing. But you need to get used to it. I mean work with her. And of course you need to buy professional cleaning products. The results will be better with them.

Advantages:

Removes pus

Flaws:

Doesn't remove blackheads

The needle really helps clear the pus from acne skin gently. But it doesn’t remove blackheads. For acne, I use both the hole on the needle. Good thing, no need to squeeze pimples with your hands now.

Good day everyone! My review will be about the Vidal needle. This is a cosmetology tool that can be used to cleanse the skin of pimples and blackheads. Price from 20 UAH. and up to 180 UAH. I bought at an average price of 76 UAH. It is used for mechanical facial cleansing. This device is considered safe, after its use there are no scars or severe damage to the skin, although the first working surface is a needle, it is used to pierce white pimples or deep-seated blackheads. And on the second surface there is that same Vidal loop. It is used to remove blackheads. It cannot be used often. Once every 3-4 days. So that there is no opposite result. The beauty tool helped me a lot. I saw the result after the first use. Not one product has given such a result (The main thing to remember is that after each use you need to wash the instrument so as not to cause infection.

Advantages:

Quality, price

Flaws:

I've been eyeing this tool for a long time. I used to spend a lot of money on facial cleansing, then I started doing it myself. By that time, my skin had already become thinner and 1 cleansing a month or two was enough for me. Many people say that you should not remove pimples and blackheads with your hands, as this can lead to inflammation. It is especially not recommended to do this in the summer. Cosmetologists advise doing this with a false uno or a Vidal loop. That's how the idea of buying this instrument came to me. For the first time I ordered it on Ali, but unfortunately the goods did not arrive. By the way, the instrument cost a penny. About 10 UAH. I ordered another one from another seller. But since I had to wait about 2 months, I bought a similar one at Watsons. Price 25 UAH. The needle was packaged in a small bag and a purple case. There was a rubber cap on the needle. The tool consists of two parts: a needle, which, by the way, is quite sharp. And loops. Personally, I mainly use a loop, I’m afraid of a needle, it looks quite scary. How to use? The manufacturer recommends applying the tool to the comelon, applying pressure and carefully removing it. I use it on steamed skin. It's less traumatic in my opinion. Although if you need to remove one pimple, you don’t have to steam it. The tool does the same. I also have an uno spoon and a slotted spoon. The uno spoon is more suitable for single rashes, and the noise loop is the most effective of them. Particularly suitable for the chin. Nice tool. I recommend

Advantages:

price, result

Flaws:

After an almost useless facial cleansing from a cosmetologist, I decided to buy myself the necessary tool and perform this procedure myself, so to speak, cheaply and cheerfully. For variety, I purchased 2 tools “Vidal Needle” and “Uno Spoon”, the prices for them are different, the main thing is to look for them. I bought the “Igloo” for 40 UAH, and the “Spoon” for 26 on a Chinese website, by the way, the quality is no worse! The instrument is made of steel, at one end in the form of a loop, and at the other there is a needle for piercing subcutaneous wen, the middle is ribbed, it is comfortable to hold in the hand and does not slip. To cleanse the skin of comedones and sebum, you need to steam your face well; for this I use water with chamomile, then a scrub and only then use the tool. By the way, it is very important to steam the skin well, the effectiveness of the procedure and how quickly the recovery will depend on this. You can pierce the wen with a needle, press two of them with a loop and voila, as if it was never there. The loop is convenient for cleaning the chin and nose, especially its wings; it hurts a little, but is tolerable. After cleaning, a slight redness remains, which goes away the next day without leaving long-healing scars, unlike squeezing with your hands. Before and after use, I make sure to disinfect the tool.

Bio long. For me personally, Vidal's Needle is an excellent alternative to expensive salon cleanings!

Advantages:

convenient, not expensive

Flaws:

And so, hello everyone, we will talk about the “digging stick”. In other words, Vidal's Needle. This is a tool that is used in cosmetology. It's basically just a steel stick with a loop on one end and a needle on the other side. The loop is neat, no matter how hard you press, it holds its shape well, does not bend or break. The needle is sharp enough, but not so sharp as to damage the skin. You need to pry the skin with a needle, tearing the top layer (if the manipulation is with a pimple) and place a loop around the most hated place) Press and everything will work out as it should. The loop is also convenient for cleaning the nose from blackheads and the wings of the nose. It's all so individual... Some people do it, some don't. The thing is comfortable and does not slip in your hand. Saved me many times. Oh yes, hygiene!!! Don’t forget about treatment, you need to understand that some pimples cannot be squeezed.

Hello beauties!

I recently discovered a new miracle tool! This is a stick for cleaning pores, squeezing out pimples... which, unfortunately, I have! I ordered this stick purely out of curiosity, they promised that there would be no marks from squeezing, and the price is ridiculous!

So, closer to the point... a stick made of medical steel, on one end there is a loop, it holds very tightly, on the other there is a needle, quite sharp, a very light pressure is enough to pierce it...

As for the result, I can say that it copes with the task quite well, BUT if the problem is already on the surface...if it is deep, there is no use in trying!

How to use it? very simple! It’s enough to put a loop around the pimple and (if the entire pimple is already on the surface) press (lightly), or (if it’s not yet fully ripe) “scrape” it, pressing lightly, so that it all comes out. It is natural and necessary to treat both the stick and the skin itself before all these actions, and it wouldn’t even hurt to use your hands, and then wipe the “battlefield” with lotion or even alcohol. What I want to say is that doing all this is quite painful for her, but nevertheless bearable, the main thing is not to put too much pressure!

I’ll tell you my secret, or maybe not a secret for some...to minimize the appearance of the mark, after squeezing, I apply a white clay mask to the affected area and in the near future the consequences will be gone!

Beautiful skin and happy shopping to everyone!

Hi all!

Yes, this also happens - acne in the ears. I actually encountered a problem, acne in the ears of a child, and even a girl.

I thought for a long time and even tried to squeeze them out with my fingers; anyone who has tried will understand that this is almost impossible. And now, almost resigned, I saw a review on this site about a tool for cleaning pores. Well, it became interesting what kind of animal it was. I went to Ali and looked at the price - 32 rubles for 2 pieces, why not buy it. I bought it.

I received these things in the mail and didn’t like the look of them. I disinfected it at home and tried to squeeze it on my face - well, it’s just some kind of vandalism. Here, for demonstration, I lightly pressed a spot on my leg.

Here's a print. The wire is thin and presses hard.

But in our ears we have complete success. They grunted, got used to it and away with all the eels!

I recommend.

Post-procedure care

Caring for the dermis after the procedure is of great importance. At this time, many bacteria can accumulate on it, so it is very important to disinfect. This can be done using a compress:

We take gauze, fold it in several layers, cut out slits for the eyes, lips and nose;
We wet the material in a weak alcohol solution, apply it to the face and leave for 20 minutes.

Here it is recommended to take precautions and not allow alcohol to come into contact with mucous membranes. This procedure allows you to speed up the restoration of the skin, heal microcracks and dry out oily sheen.

In addition to the alcohol solution, you can use Chlorhexidine - just wipe your face with a cotton pad.

If the skin is prone to dryness, it is recommended to use a decoction of chamomile or calendula instead of alcohol-containing preparations. They have disinfectant and soothing properties and easily relieve irritation.

Reviews

Based on numerous user reviews, using the Widal loop is not accompanied by any difficulties and allows you to achieve effective results. If handled correctly and carefully, cleaning your face with this device will eliminate the development of complications.

The Widal loop is a common tool that allows you to effectively get rid of various inflammatory formations. However, before purchasing and using this device, it is advisable to consult a cosmetologist.

Precautionary measures

Before using the loop, it is recommended that you familiarize yourself with the following precautions:

Do not press the ear too hard on the skin - this can cause injury;
The loop should be treated with an alcohol solution before each session to avoid infection;
The tool can only be used by one person, like other personal hygiene items.

The use of the loop is prohibited in case of exacerbation of allergic dermatitis, psoriasis, eczema, burn lesions, rosacea, severe dryness and flaking. The list of contraindications also includes impaired regenerative function of the skin.

What are the types of cosmetic devices?

In addition to the loop, there are other types of cosmetic cleaning devices: regular and electric cleansing brushes, Vidal needle, Uno spoon. The principle of use for each of them is different, but the result is the same - clean skin without problematic rashes.

Cleansing brush

Brushes are divided into electric, ultrasonic and conventional. In addition to removing impurities, they are used to cleanse the skin of flaking and have an anti-aging effect.

Which brushes are considered the most effective and popular:

Clinique Sonic System. Battery operated. The set includes several attachments and three speeds. The brush does not rotate, so there is no risk of skin injury. Suitable for all types except very dry;
LUNA go by FOREO. Powered by charging. Guarantees deep cleansing, gentle care, and anti-aging effect. A separate device is purchased for each skin type;
CO. Accessories Cleansing Brush. The simplest brush for mechanical cleansing, consisting of several tens of thousands of soft microhairs. Designed to remove dirt and dead particles. It is recommended to use no more than twice a week.

Vidal's needle

The Vidal needle tool is a handle with a sharp steel tip. Designed to remove acne. It is recommended to use it instead of regular squeezing - thanks to it, no wounds remain on the skin.

How to use the needle:

We clean and disinfect the treatment area, steam the face over a herbal decoction;
We treat the instrument with alcohol;
Carefully apply the needle to the middle of the pimple or blackhead and press lightly;
Squeeze out the pimple with a loop;
We disinfect the skin.

To learn how to get rid of blackheads using a loop, watch the video:

Spoon Uno

Another tool for cleaning dirt is the Uno spoon. It looks like a rod with a tip in the form of a metal hemisphere. The kit may include additional attachments:

Skimmer. Used to remove subcutaneous fat;
A spear. Application is similar to a needle;
A loop.

Using the Uno spoon is very easy: just place it so that the center of the pimple is strictly under the hole and lightly press on the skin.

How to use a cosmetic loop

The first thing that needs to be done before cleaning the skin is to treat the instrument and face. Wipe the cosmetic loop with a disinfectant, such as Biolong, and then treat your facial skin with any antibacterial toner.

Before proceeding directly to the procedure itself, you need to steam the skin and thereby open the pores. You can hold your face over a water bath, cleanse immediately after a hot bath or shower, or use a special warming mask.

Now bring the loop to the comedone, grab it inside and gently press on the skin. If the pore is not cleared and a small white “worm” of sebum does not come to the surface, then move the loop to the side and repeat the procedure in this place.

To improve the effect and prepare the skin for cleansing, you can do a small peeling, but you should not choose products with large abrasive particles, hard brushes or aggressive acids for this purpose.

If you want to squeeze out a pimple, then remember that this can only be done with mature pimples with a white “head”. Initially, they need to be pierced with a sterile needle, or a syringe, and then carefully squeezed out with a cosmetic loop. Treat this area with tea tree oil, which disinfects and dries well.
