how do I scientifically get rid of those black spots on my nose? they are disgusting and my nose looks like a strawberry

They are sebacious fillaments. The only way to reliably get them smaller is to tan. UV radiation effectively sterilizes the surface, increases blood flow, and will decrease the pore size over time. Get a membership at a tanning salon. It isn't that bad for you. Look at people like Derrida and Trump.

Not sure why it bothers you. Try making a simple solution of water and vinegar, for starters, 1 table spoon of vinegar into 1l of water, wash your face with in the evening, adjust amount of vinegar depending on how your skin reacts, just do it gradually dont pour too much or your skin will burn!! Do it reguarly and blackspot should decrease dramatically.

your body naturally produces oil and sebum to keep your skin hydrated, protect it from infection and lubricate hair follicles. Sebaceous filaments are nearly everywhere on your body, you only see them on your nose as the skin is thinner, removing them will disrupt your skin's equilibrium. Furthermore, unless done correctly, messing with acne can cause permanent scarring.

Take care of your skin properly anons.

There is nothing wrong with you. In fact quite the opposite. You are experiencing the sensation of RIGHTEOUS MAGGOTRY REMOVAL! Praise God!

"Yea, and GOD spoke unto the heathen and admonished them thus with sacred words. Thou shall not suffer unto thee the MAGGOTS in thine nose. Thou shall extract the MAGGOTS! By squeezing those MOTHER FUCKERS out! Or by pore strips if thee be some sort of woman. Amen."

These are the exact words of the one true God as written in the holy scripture.

Therefore by watching videos of GODDAMNED MAGGOTS being extracted you are in effect being respectful to the words of the one true God. Bless you. Bless you.

You'll need something that will decrease pore size and/or decrease your testosterone levels since it's the test that's producing the oil and since I don't think you're trans I'd suggest looking into a drug named accutane. I've heard it's quite harsh though, so..

And please don't squeeze or use strips, squeezing could cause scarring and cause those little red blood vessels too appear and strips will irritate the area causing discomfort, both of these methods will send signals to your body that the cleared area needs more oil, leading to more oil production

Good luck
