Blackheads are not serious acne. Doctors usually recommend an over the counter medicine for people with mild signs of acne. You can apply the medicine directly to the affected skin.
There are many acne lotions, creams, and solutions on the shelves. The major ones that specifically deal with blackheads are:
- Resorcinol – can help break down blackheads and whiteheads
- Salicylic acid – helps break down blackheads and whiteheads.
- Sulfur – helps break down blackheads and whiteheads.
So look for these when you purchase at CVS or other drugstores.
