How are blackheads formed?

Acne is divided into whiteheads and blackheads. Whiteheads are more likely to occur around the mouth, while blackheads are more likely to occur in the T-zone.

Whiteheads are small, hemispherical, white rashes the size of millet grains. They are hard and difficult to detect in the early stages.

There are two types of blackhead lesions: one is large pores, densely packed with small blackheads all over the face, and the surface appears as black embolism. The second type is that there is no redness or swelling on the surface. Before the blackheads are fully formed, the patient applies medications indiscriminately or squeezes them improperly, which then turns into red and swollen acne.

Let's focus on blackheads.

Blackheads are caused by the oxidation of skin oil in the air. They become smelly and black. They are common in adolescents during puberty and are prone to occur on the face, chest and back, especially on the nose. They are characterized by black spots in significantly enlarged pores. When squeezed out, they look like small worms with black tips.
