I would like to inquire about treatment for recurring blackheads on the nose and T-zone, as well as pore improvement.

Hello. I am writing to inquire about professional dermatological procedures and treatment options, as I am under significant stress due to blackheads on my nose and T-zone.

I have been consistently trying home care methods, such as emulsifying commercially available cleansing oils, using BHA-based skincare products, and soft nose packs that soften and remove sebum. However, these methods only provide temporary relief, and the sebum quickly builds up again and oxidizes to turn black upon contact with air, a phenomenon that repeats itself.

As I have suffered from recurring blackheads for a long time, I feel that the pores around my nose are gradually widening and losing elasticity, so I now feel that relying solely on cleansing and cosmetics has reached its limit.

I would like to visit a dermatologist to seek professional help, and I am wondering which treatment process would be most effective given my current condition. I would appreciate it if you could let me know which option should be prioritized: sebaceous gland destruction/extraction procedures like Aqua Peel or Agnes, or laser pore-shrinking treatments.

In addition, I would appreciate your advice regarding the typical treatment cycle and recovery period, as well as the treatment plan best suited to my skin type. I will visit for a consultation soon after reviewing your reply. Thank you.
