How To Get Rid Of The Pores On My Face?
hi my name is Alonzo...im 29 with pores which actually started on my face around 21...the main areas are both cheeks and nose....I get small bumps on nose that turn to little white bumps that forms to large red bumps...I learned at the last minute not to burst or squeeze them and now i'm left with 3 like holes on my nose....they could be embarrassing at times for me or for anyone....I were wondering if there's anything I could do about these hole like problems on the left side of my nose....I've purchased the mia2 facial brush and also use Neutrogena deep pore face cleanser...

Hello
Thanks for the query to HCM.
In my opinion these pimples like bumps may be due to .
1 Streptococcus or staphylococcus infection ( bacterial infection) due to unknown reason . Diagnosis can be confirmed by swab examination from these bumps .
2 Oily skin and sebaceous glands are responsible for such type of skin so consult a dermatologist and get his opinion.
3 The next reason may be hormonal imbalance so get in blood for testosterone and androstenedions levels .
In my opinion consult a dermatologist and get his opinion as this is very important as physical examination is crucial in this type of case.
Beside you can use anti moisturizing cream for some time.
Sometimes dry steam also help.
Good luck.
