Hello. I'm trying to take good care of my skin, but I'm having trouble with blackheads around my nose and on my back.
Although my knowledge is limited, I know that blackheads are caused by sebum oxidation that turns black. I wonder if there are other causes of blackheads other than simply a problem with the amount of sebum secretion.
I would like to know the cause of blackheads and find an appropriate management method, so I have a few questions.
What causes blackheads around the nose? In other words, why are blackheads concentrated especially around my nose on my face?
What causes blackheads on the back, which is more difficult to manage than the face? (Friction from clothing, sweat, shampoo/body wash residue, etc.)
Hormones and Diet: Could hormonal imbalances or certain dietary habits (e.g., high sugar, dairy) that affect sebum production be directly linked to blackheads?
Bad Cleansing Habits: If you're cleansing thoroughly but still get blackheads, could your incorrect cleansing method or the cleansing products you use be the cause?
I'm just vaguely worried about the cause of these blackheads.
Please explain it in a way that is easy to understand and also recommend the treatment method you are using!
블랙헤드가 생기는 주요 원인은 피지 분비, 각질 정체, 피지의 산화, 유전/피부 타입 영향, 잘못된 모공 압출 습관 입니다. 꼼꼼한 세안만으로는 모공 안 깊숙이 쌓인 피지와 산화 과정을 막기 어렵기 때문에 피지 조절과 각질 케어를 함께 해주셔야 블랙헤드가 줄어듭니다. 집에서 할 수 있는 블랙헤드 관리법으로는 저자극 각질 케어 (주 1–2회), 피지 조절 기능성 성분으로 관리, 클렌징은 과하지 않게 해주시는 게 좋습니다. 추가적으로 피부과에서 아쿠아필과 같은 노폐물 정리 되는 관리도 받아 보시길 권유 드리며, 문의 감사 드립니다.
