Buffing Away Blackheads (Safely!)
- Explore the benefits of regular, gentle exfoliation for removing dead skin cells and unclogging pores.
- Discuss physical exfoliants (scrubs) for blackheads and chemical exfoliants (acids) for both blackheads and some nodules (consult a dermatologist for cystic nodules).
- Recommend exfoliating 2-3 times a week, avoiding harsh scrubs that can irritate skin.
- Bonus Tip: Spot-exfoliate stubborn blackheads with a BHA solution on a cotton swab.
