What are Blackheads and Whiteheads?
Blackheads and Whiteheads are mild forms of acne caused by clogged pores due to excess oil, dead skin cells, and dirt.
Blackheads (open comedones) appear as small dark spots when pores are open and oxidized.
Whiteheads (closed comedones) appear as small white bumps when pores remain closed.
Causes of Blackheads and Whiteheads
- Excess Sebum Production – Overactive oil glands block pores.
- Dead Skin Cell Buildup – Leads to clogged follicles.
- Hormonal Fluctuations – Common during puberty, menstruation, or stress.
- Improper Skincare Routine – Lack of exfoliation or harsh products.
- Cosmetic Product Buildup – Use of comedogenic makeup or creams.
- Poor Hygiene – Infrequent face cleansing after sweating or pollution exposure.
- Diet & Lifestyle – High sugar or dairy intake may contribute.
