Suggest Treatment For Whiteheads On The Nose

Sir I have lots of whiteheads formed on my nose. I sometimes take steam and tried to remove them with a blackhead removal tool available in stores but still it continues to form. Now when I touch my nose it feels rough as if it am rubbing my fingers over sand particles. I have also tried Garnier Walnut scrub but still no use.

Hi..
Welcome to HEALTHCARE MAGIC ..

I have gone through your query and can understand your concerns..

As per your query whiteheads over the nose can be due to clogged pores or clogging of duct of Sebaceous glands present over the nose..
You should scrub your face and nose twice a week..
Apply a paste of baking soda by mixing with water.
You can also use facewash containing Salicylic acid and glycolic acid..
Cleansers containing Benzoyl Peroxide and retinoid creams can help..
Use facepacks that do not make face oily..

Hope this information helps..

Thanks and regards.
