I thought I had a clogged blackhead because it was so deep and dark, but it was located at the tip of my nose. It was hard to extract since I had tiplasty where they use ear cartilage to build my tip. It stayed for the whole month and it bugged me at lot because it was a the center of my nose which was very noticeable.
