I have had a dense concentration of blackheads on my nose. How can I get rid of them ?
Patient: For over 11 years I have had a dense concentration of blackheads on my nose. There is not a square centimeter on my nose that is not covered with them. I have tried creams, oils, witch-hazel, and prescription medicines. I wash and scrub my face at least twice a day. I drink plenty of water. I jog every other day. I do not share pillow cases or towels. They are not scars, because if I pinch any where on my nose...well, you know. These are all the of the solutions I have ever read on this or any website. How can I get rid of them ? I do wear makeup over it (not when exercising, though) but they are still slightly visible. It is humiliating when children ask me What are those dots on your nose ? Doctor: Hello. Welcome to HealthcareMagic forum. Black heads on the nose are notorious for reappearing again and again. Either you keep on removing them on a regular basis.Or for permanent removal, you can opt for laser treatment but multiple sittings will be required. Dr. Rakhi Tayal
