How to Get Rid of Blackheads on your Nose

How to get rid of blackheads on your nose is a common question as it is one of the most likely places you will find blackheads on your skin. Should you use a different treatment for your nose? Is there a particularly successful method of how to get rid of blackheads on your nose compare to other parts of you skin? Well the answer is blackhead removal is pretty much the same no matter which part of the body they appear. What you should never do, however, is squeeze them! Squeezing blackheads can leave you with acne scarring, blackheads are exceptionally bad for this and the skin can even get infected from the sebum released. Many people don't know this and carry on squeezing but if you don't trust me you can always check this with your dermatologist.

Blackheads on your nose does not require any specialist treatment. As I mentioned before, I would always recommend you speak to your dermatologist before trying any home remedies for blackhead removal.

So why do blackheads appear on your nose more frequently than other places? Sadly it's just one of the places that your body produces excess oil. I've always found the best way to treat blackheads on the nose is with the blackhead removal strips you can buy from your local pharmacy. Stick with a name brand such as Biore Pore Perfect Ultra Deep Cleansing Pore Strips which are reasonably priced. Don't worry if you don't see immediate results. It may take two or three applications before you start to see the gunk coming out. It's actually really satisfying when it happens and well worth the wait. These strips are formulated with tea tree oil, menthol and witch hazel, you can feel the strips working as they deep clean, refresh and purify pores. Refreshing indeed! Remember to follow the instructions on the packaging and if you encounter any irritation stop using them immediately.

I'd also recommend you use a exfoliating face wash with cotton swabs to clean up anything that is left over from the blackhead removal strips. I've heard a lot of good things about Clean and Clear Continuous Control Acne Cleanser. I myself haven't tried it but I have read a lot of good reviews about the product. Some may work for you and others may work better it can be trial and error trying to get rid of those pesky blackheads. I'm not sure if they'll ever invent a permanent cure for blackheads but with these methods you can at least stay on top of the problem. If they ever do invent a permanent cure for getting rid of blackheads someones going to be seriously rich! Hopefully I've highlighted one of the best ways of getting rid of blackheads!

If anyone has any suggestions of products they have used and found success with I'd be interested to hear from you. I'd be delighted to share it with the community also. As I said earlier one persons solution won't fit anothers so if we share the knowledge and success stories hopefully more and more of us will get rid of this problem. This is also the case for whiteheads and acne in general, please get in touch if you'd like to share your story or experiences! It's also useful to get some tips on skin care products as I haven't used them all myself. If there's one you love or if its just new on the market write to me and let me know your thoughts. Together we can get rid of those pimples!

One last thing, I recently signed up for Self Improvement from SelfGrowth.com which is another online community which covers skin care and health in general. It's well worth a look folks.
