An enormous blackhead in the ear!

As tempting as it may be to squeeze those annoying black spots, it is essential to fight against desire.

Resulting from clogging the pores by oil and dirt, blackheads can be successfully treated with a range of products available at your local pharmacy.

Get the right treatment and follow some simple steps for a smooth skin free of black spots.

Exfoliate the skin regularly

Rubbing the skin several times a week with an exfoliating cleanser is a preventative measure that removes dirt, oil and dead skin cells from the surface of your skin. This prevents these irritants from accumulating and clogging your pores, creating blackheads. The products bought in stores that contain exfoliating pearls can even help to break black spots that have already formed, being less visible. For a homemade solution mix 4 tablespoons of baking soda and 1 teaspoon of warm water to form a paste that can be used to exfoliate your face.

Use cleaning strips for pores

To remove the black spots that are deeply embedded, stick a pore strip on the wet skin and let it dry. After a few minutes, remove and remove the dirt that clogs the pores. Pore strips gently lift dead skin cells and oil buried in your pores. These strips can be purchased at most pharmacies, be sure to follow the instructions on the box for proper application and use.

Use retinoid

Retinoid is a kind of cream derived from vitamin A. These high-strength creams help your skin to remove dead cells more efficiently, cleaning pores and preventing the formation of acne and blackheads. Retinoid can be purchased without a prescription in many stores, but a more potent formula requires a prescription from your dermatologist. It is not uncommon for the skin to dry out and peel slightly during the first weeks of use.

Invest in microdermabrasion

For persistent pimples that cannot be removed by using pore strips or retinoid creams, consult a dermatologist about a microdermabrasion treatment in the office. The microdermabrasion uses a powerful suction and a gentle mechanical abrasion to remove the outermost layers of dead skin with particles similar to tiny crystals. The process helps to remove deeply embedded dirt, oil and bacteria and helps reveal a softer and brighter complexion.
