Clean skin without visiting a beautician? Easy. Here you will learn how to get rid of blackheads with the help of improvised means and cosmetic preparations. In the article you will also find information about where they come from and what needs to be done so that they do not return.

To keep the skin from drying out, the pores secrete sweat and oil. Thanks to this process, the aging process slows down. Therefore people with oily skin face wrinkles much later than owners of a different type of dermis.

However, sebum can bring more than just benefits. Its abundant secretion provokes the appearance of acne, unpleasant shine, as well as black dots (comedones).

Thus, the pores are clogged. Sebaceous secretions cannot come out because of their a large number. This provokes the formation of bacteria. And the development of pathogens leads to the appearance of purulent rashes and comedones.

Lack of regular cleansing of the skin of the face provokes the formation of black dots.

There are five main reasons for the active work of the sebaceous glands:

1. Hormonal imbalance. This kind of problem most often occurs in teenagers. At the same time, hormonal failure can also be observed in pregnant women and in people with diseases of the endocrine system.
2. Genetics. Abundant secretion of sebum can be inherited.
3. Poor skin care. This can include several factors: the use of low-quality drugs, non-compliance with the measures in the procedures, as well as the lack of care in principle.
4. External environment. Climate, air, unsanitary conditions, etc.
5. Nutrition. Any diseases of the gastrointestinal tract, even in the mildest form, are visible on the face. Therefore, it is advisable to watch what you eat. Do not forget about vitamins.

Smooth and clean facial skin is afraid of eating fatty, sweet and carbohydrate foods in large quantities.

All of the above reasons directly affect the appearance of comedones.

Manual removal at home

Blackheads are a type of acne. Comedones rarely become inflamed, while spoiling appearance so they should be disposed of immediately.

Blackheads of this kind are easily removed by hand, at home. For these purposes, there are folk methods and cosmetic preparations. There are several ways to choose the best method for yourself, we suggest that you familiarize yourself with each in more detail.

Cleansing with a patch

The patch is not only effective, but also an affordable tool in the fight against acne. In pharmacies, it can be purchased for a small cost.

A good result is achieved due to the principle of the strips:

1. The agent is applied to the affected area with the adhesive side.
2. The patch is kept for a certain time, then carefully removed.
3. The inner layer draws out the contents of the pores.

The course of treatment is a month, while in some cases it can be extended. Procedures should be carried out twice a week.

When buying a pack of patches, decide on the required quantity. To remove black dots on the nose, 8-10 strips are required.

1. Prepare your skin. Before using the strips, wash your face in the usual way and wipe your face with a refreshing tonic, lotion or medical alcohol. A clean and dried dermis is easier to clean clogged pores.
2. Steaming the face. This is an additional procedure that will facilitate the pulling. At the same time, for difficult cases, when the rashes began to progress, steaming the face is necessary. To do this, boil water and breathe over the steam. The process resembles inhalation by the folk method.
3. Application. The strip is glued to wet skin.
4. Withdrawal. The patch should be removed on time and carefully. If you separate the strip ahead of time, then there is a risk of getting an inferior result. If you remove the patch after the exposure time, it can dry out and stick to the skin. By tearing off an overexposed strip, you are unlikely to get it with elongated pores.
5. Aftercare. After removing the patch, it is highly recommended to moisturize the skin with a face cream.

Before using the drug, read its contraindications.

2. Before using the products, an allergy test should be carried out.
3. If the skin has damage, open wounds, rashes, etc., then it is forbidden to steam and scrub the dermis.

Preventive actions

To reduce the risk of acne, the following preventive measures should be followed:

1. For extended sun exposure, use protective cream for face. Exposure to rays will only provoke abundant secretion of the sebaceous canal and clogging of pores.
2. Use only proven quality products for the face.
3. The skin requires daily care.
4. Watch your diet and take your vitamins regularly.

Tonic dries the skin, normalizing the sebaceous glands. Therefore, it is advisable to wipe your face with it twice a day. Also for these purposes, calendula tincture, diluted with water, and an ordinary cucumber are suitable.

Black dots on the nose are sebaceous blockages that, when oxidized by air, turn black and become visible on the skin. Often the appearance of black dots is associated with oily skin type or with age-related changes in teenage years. But excess fat may be due to a lack of hydration. It is important to regularly monitor the condition of the skin, carry out appropriate procedures so as not to start pore pollution.

Reasons for the appearance

To effectively deal with black dots on the face and nose, you need to understand the causes of their occurrence. The most important factor contributing to their appearance is the contamination of the skin pores (sebaceous ducts). Thanks to them, the skin breathes and when they become clogged, the process becomes more complicated.

Most of all, sebum is released on the nose, forehead, and chin. These places get dirty faster than others.

Reasons for the appearance of black dots on the nose:

• Poor quality or irregular skin care. In the absence of cleansing the skin from impurities in the evening and in the morning before applying cosmetics, the sebaceous ducts become clogged.
• Unbalanced diet and dry food. Fatty and sweet foods, coffee and alcohol contribute to the formation of blockages in the pores.
• Problems in the work of the gastrointestinal tract lead to a violation of metabolic processes, and as a result - the appearance of skin inflammation.
• Cosmetics of inadequate quality that disrupt the natural balance of the epidermis.
• Hormonal changes in the body that affect the condition of the skin.

Treatment methods for the disease

Black dots are not a sentence; with the right approach, they can be effectively dealt with. First of all, the cause of their appearance should be excluded.

If you follow the sequence in the actions, you can achieve the result:

• balance the diet;
• regularly cleanse the skin with quality products;
• monitor your health, at the first alarming symptoms go to a specialist;
• give up cigarettes and alcohol.

Medications

In most cases, products containing salicylic acid are recommended in the fight against black dots.

• Klerasil– it was invented in the USA more than 50 years ago. With regular use, the result will be noticeable after 4-5 days. The drug cleanses the upper layers of the skin, refreshes it and kills pathogenic microflora. Promotes healing of wounds.
• Scrub Garnier- a delicate remedy that reduces the activity of the sebaceous glands, protecting the skin from the appearance of comedones. Tonic from this series is also used against black dots. In addition to salicylic acid, it contains zinc. With regular use of the product, the production of sebum is regulated, the pores are narrowed.

Other effective remedies for blackheads:

• The active ingredient is azelaic acid. The drug slows down the process of cell division, inhibits bacteria that cause rashes.
• - contains the antibiotic erythromycin and zinc. Effective against inflammation, microbes, comedones.
• - the active substance is benzoyl peroxide, which is converted to benzoic acid on the skin. The drug inactivates bacteria, dissolves dead skin cells.
• with synthetic vitamin A (adapalene). It regulates the process of formation of black dots, prevents their reappearance.

Attention! A consultation with a dermatologist is required to select the appropriate remedy for blackheads.

Strips and patches

Today, special strips and plasters are very common for removing blockages on the nose. They are glued to the problem area, then torn off. The effectiveness of these products is due to the presence of absorbents - coal and clay. Additionally, they include astringent, antibacterial, matting components. To facilitate the release of sebum from blockages, the face can first be steamed.

The question of how to remove black dots on the nose can excite the owners of not only oily and combination, but even normal skin. The point is the peculiarities of the location of the nose, the increased intensity of sebum production in this particular zone, the difficulties of cleansing natural folds. It is worth considering that the tendency to form comedones is a chronic phenomenon, it is impossible to cure it. Even a visit to a beautician will provide only a short-term result. Maintain the epidermis perfect condition is possible only with regular cleaning, disinfecting and degreasing procedures. Most manipulations can be carried out independently at home.

Proper skin care

To prevent comedones and reduce their severity, it is necessary to adhere to a certain regimen and carry out specific daily skin care:

• To normalize metabolic processes, it is necessary to consume at least 2 liters of water daily.
• Good sleep is very important. It is during rest that the tissues are actively cleansed of toxins. Neglecting sleep provokes the accumulation of toxins under the skin, causing the formation of entire colonies of comedones and blackheads.
• Nutrition should be balanced and healthy. It is recommended to completely abandon refined products in favor of fresh and natural.
• Every evening, it is necessary to carefully remove the remnants of cosmetics and dirt from the surface of the face, paying special attention to problem areas. Do not neglect soft surface scrubs for local use. Even with normal skin their faces can be used at least every day (with the condition of subsequent application of a moisturizer).

Regular use of the recommended procedures will help both remove black spots on the nose and reduce the severity of the inflammatory process, prevent the formation of pustules and the spread of the defect throughout the face. For manipulations, it is recommended to use homemade products, but professional preparations are also allowed. You just need to monitor their composition - oils, fragrances and numerous preservatives clog pores and provoke the appearance of comedones.

• After the end of the manipulation, you need to apply a tonic for oily skin, an extract with astringent properties or salicylic acid.
• It is strictly forbidden to apply cosmetics after cleaning! The face should rest for at least 2-3 hours.

An equally pronounced positive result is guaranteed by the use of one of the following scrubs.

The product is then washed off with lukewarm water.
• Vitamin. The dried peel of an orange is rubbed on a fine grater to a state of powder and mixed with cream. This option is especially good for normal to dry skin.

To lighten black dots, you can use a solution of salt, soda, baby soap and water. It gently cleanses the tops of the cones and gives the skin of the nose aesthetics.

These procedures are considered quite aggressive. They are not recommended to be used more than once every 1-2 weeks, otherwise the protective tissue barriers will collapse and the situation will only worsen.

About the causes of the appearance of black dots on the nose

Black dots on the nose are formed most often and increased fat separation. Sometimes this happens in people with a different type of skin, when the sebaceous ducts are clogged and the sebum does not come to the surface, but remains under the skin in the form of a white mass. On the surface, they look like dark dots. Even with dry skin, dirt and cosmetics can accumulate in the pores, especially if the care cream is unsuccessfully chosen.

In addition, hormonal imbalance in the body leads to the formation of comedones, malnutrition and dehydration of the skin.

The substance that the patch is impregnated with penetrates into the pores, softens and “pulls out” comedones to the surface of the skin. It remains only to remove them and wash.

• So that comedones do not bother longer, you can use a special cream or gel, most often with salicylic acid or benzoyl. The skin is cleansed and the product is applied in a thin layer, they help to clean not only the pores, but also renew the skin, improving the complexion. But there is one “but”: such products dry out the skin, which we talked about above, and the sebaceous glands, sensing a lack of moisture, begin to produce even more sebum, and, therefore, comedones will appear again and again.
