What is the best method for whiteheads and blackheads removal? The skincare regime mentioned in this article can remove both whiteheads and blackheads. However, whiteheads take longer because they are closed and don’t allow medicines to seep inside. Sometimes you might have to visit a dermatologist to remove them with machines. 

 What is this? Black/whiteheads removal regime

Who can use it? Oily to normal skin type with many white and blackheads with few red or pus-filled pimples. 

Sensitive skin: If you have dry and sensitive skin, we highly recommend consulting a dermatologist for your acne.

Kindly note:

  • If your skin feels dry and stretched after morning or night treatment products, apply Sebamed face clear gel.
  • Discontinue morning and night treatment products in case of redness, burning, or itching on the skin. Just use Sebamed face clear gel until the skin recovers. Introduce the morning product first and then the night product at a gap of 3 days.

WEEKLY REGIME

Once or twice a week, scrub your face gently and apply a face mask or pack. Avoid scrub if you have a lot of ed or pus-filled pimples.

MONTHLY REGIME

You can also do an at-home peel monthly to exfoliate debris clogging the pores. However, follow the exact guidelines to avoid any side effects. The Ordinary AHA BHA peel is a good choice for beginners.
