Dr. Liu Wenmin
Methods for removing blackheads:
1. Keep the face clean: Choose a facial cleanser suitable for your skin type and perform regular deep cleansing to remove excess oil and dirt, reducing the formation of blackheads.
2. Use exfoliating products: Regular exfoliation can help unclog pores and reduce blackhead formation. However, choose gentle products to avoid skin damage caused by excessive exfoliation.
3. Use blackhead removing solutions or nose strips: These products can soften and extract blackheads. Follow the instructions carefully and avoid frequent use to prevent skin irritation.
4. Medication: For more severe blackhead problems, topical medications such as retinoic acid, salicylic acid, or fruit acid may be considered under a doctor's guidance. These medications can dissolve keratin, promote the removal of blackheads, and tighten pores.
In addition, daily use of sunscreen to protect against UV damage also helps reduce blackhead formation.
Please note that although the above methods can help remove and prevent blackheads, over-cleansing or using inappropriate products may damage the skin and worsen skin problems.
