A member asked:
I love to use pore strips on the face to remove black heads. i use it every other day. does the constant tearing off d face loosen the skin?
A doctor has provided 1 answer
No, but: You should only use a pore strip once or twice per week. It can cause skin irritation as the strip will remove the top layer of skin cells.
