Treating whiteheads and blackheads
To unclog pores, dermatologists recommend using a retinoid.(Retinols) You can buy a face wash with retinol as the main ingredient or retinol serum from beauty shops. Retinoids will help encourage cell turnover and prevent pores from getting clogged with dead skin cells and oil in the first place.If you have many black heads and whiteheads, extraction may help but ensure its professionally done to avoid scarring.

To clear this type of acne blemish, try washing your face twice daily with an acne face wash that contains alpha hydroxy acids (AHA) ,benzoyl peroxide or salicylic acid.
