I'm concerned about blackheads and enlarged pores on my nose. Instead of peel-off nose strips, could you recommend some seasonal care or skin treatments?
2026.10.01 04:33
I am incredibly stressed every time I look in the mirror because of the blackheads deeply embedded in my nose. I used to frequently use harsh, peel-off nose strips to see immediate results. At first, it seemed like my skin was momentarily clean as the impurities were removed, but over time, sebum would fill up again, leading to a vicious cycle where my pores actually widened further. So, I have now completely stopped using peel-off nose strips.
Especially during transitional seasons like these, when the oil-moisture balance is easily disrupted, blackheads tend to become more prominent and the skin naturally becomes more sensitive. As daily temperature fluctuations widen, the skin's surface becomes dry, while the skin internally secretes excessive sebum to compensate. When this sebum mixes with old dead skin cells and comes into contact with oxygen in the air, it quickly turns black, easily forming blackheads.
Therefore, during the change of seasons, gentle care using cleansing oils or care products containing BHA (salicylic acid) to gently dissolve sebum is essential, rather than applying strong physical irritation.
Since home care alone has limitations in improving my enlarged pores and deep blackheads, I am seriously considering dermatological procedures. Specifically, I am curious about the actual effectiveness of treatment programs such as Pico Laser, pore tightening lasers, and Aqua Peel in removing blackheads and shrinking pores. I am also wondering if combining laser treatments with sebum-reducing care or regular scaling creates a synergistic effect.
My nose always looks messy because of blackheads, which lowers my confidence. My makeup also cakes or clumps quickly, causing me a lot of stress every morning when I do it. Has anyone else struggled with blackheads and enlarged pores like me and actually seen results from dermatological treatments or systematic seasonal skincare routines? It would be a huge help if you could share your experiences and reviews, including whether home care or maintenance after the procedure was difficult!

- 01CommentsIt really bothers you when your parting starts to look wider. Since the causes of hair loss vary from person to person, I think it is a good idea to get a scalp diagnosis first. During the consultation, it would be helpful to ask about the frequency of visits, criteria for monitoring changes, and whether there are ways to reduce the pain of the injections if you are concerned.240026.10.22
- 02CommentsIt would be helpful to discuss skin tightness, texture, and fine lines separately after cleansing to determine the priority of care. If you have sensitive skin, please inform us first about any cosmetics you have recently used and any irritation reactions. It would be beneficial to confirm the exact names of the products, their intended use, and the limits of the expected changes, as well as ask when progress should be evaluated after the first session to determine the next interval. Please also receive guidance on expected redness, reactions requiring medical attention, as well as guidelines for moisturizing, sun protection, and resuming makeup application.200026.10.22
