Blackheads—What Treatments and Products Should I Use?
Blackheads can be one of the most frustrating skincare concerns. These tiny dark spots, often found on the nose, cheeks, or chin, are caused by clogged pores filled with oil, dead skin cells, and impurities that oxidize when exposed to air. At Canvas Skin, we understand the struggle, and we’re here to help you achieve clear, glowing skin with the right treatments and products.
What Causes Blackheads?
Blackheads form when your pores become clogged with a mixture of oil (sebum) and dead skin cells. Unlike whiteheads, which are closed pores, blackheads are open, causing the trapped material to darken due to oxidation. While they’re common for oily and combination skin types, anyone can experience blackheads.
Best Treatments for Blackheads
At Canvas Skin, we offer professional treatments that target blackheads effectively, leaving your skin clearer and smoother.
1. Microneedling
While primarily used for improving skin texture and reducing fine lines, microneedling also stimulates collagen production and enhances product absorption, which can help keep your pores clear over time.
2. Chemical Peels
A professional peel like our BioRePeel gently exfoliates dead skin cells, unclogs pores, and reduces blackheads while improving skin tone and texture. It’s a great way to reset your skin and maintain clarity.
3. MOXI Laser Treatment
For those struggling with stubborn blackheads caused by uneven texture or clogged pores, our MOXI laser works to resurface and rejuvenate the skin, addressing the root causes of congestion.
Canvas Skin Products for Blackhead Management
In addition to professional treatments, maintaining a consistent at-home skincare routine is key to managing blackheads. Here are the top Canvas Skin products that can help:
1. Airo Face Wash
Start your routine with our clarifying Airo Face Wash, which contains 2% salicylic acid to deeply cleanse and exfoliate your pores, effectively targeting blackheads while leaving your skin refreshed.
2. Imera Toner Pads
Our Imera Toner Pads are infused with a blend of gentle exfoliating acids to remove dead skin cells and prevent clogged pores. Use them daily to keep your skin clear and smooth.
3. Nué Skin Weekly Peel Pads
For a deeper exfoliation, incorporate our Nué Skin Weekly Peel Pads into your routine. These pads gently remove impurities and enhance cell turnover, helping to clear out blackheads.
4. Ela Radiance Pads
Finish your routine with our Ela Radiance Pads, packed with brightening ingredients to even out skin tone and give your complexion a healthy glow while maintaining clear pores.
5. New Sol All-Mineral Sunscreen SPF 50
Don’t forget sunscreen! Our New Sol All-Mineral Sunscreen SPF 50 protects your skin from harmful UV rays, which can exacerbate blackheads and cause post-inflammatory hyperpigmentation.
Tips for Blackhead Prevention
Stick to a Routine: Cleanse, exfoliate, and moisturize consistently to prevent pore buildup.
Avoid Over-Scrubbing: Be gentle with your skin to avoid irritation and excess oil production.
Remove Makeup Thoroughly: Always cleanse your face at the end of the day to remove makeup and impurities.
Hydrate and Protect: Use a lightweight, non-comedogenic moisturizer and sunscreen daily to keep your skin balanced.
