Blackhead Treatment

Blackheads are essentially symptoms of acne. Sebum when overproduced, clog skin pores with epidermal cells. Sebum when oxidised turns black to form blackheads. Excessive sebum production usually is associated with puberty and associated hormonal changes. Heavy sweating, improper clothes and dietary habits also contribute to formation of blackheads.

At Khoobsurat we use both conventional and current methods of blackhead treatments.

Clay masks – Deep cleaning is a brilliant way of treating blackheads, and clay is a material that has exceptional deep cleaning quality. Masking with clay regularly cleans up pores and prevents excess formation of sebum. 

Baking soda exfoliation – Exfoliation when done with baking soda and water regularly minimizes the occurrence of blackheads. In place of water, apple cider vinegar could be used since it has excellent astringent properties.

Salicylic acid – Salicylic acid has the chemical property of breaking down sebum that clogs pores. Salicylic acid attracts oil molecules and hence helps in clearing clogged pores.

We determine the treatment depending on the nature of your skin.
