@drderrickphillips: Before you call it a blackhead… take a closer look 👀 Sebaceous filaments are normal – they help to move oil to the surface of your skin. When oil production increases, they just become more visible. Blackheads are different. They form when pores get blocked with oil + dead skin, which then oxidises and turns dark. They are a form of non-inflammatory acne. Consistent use of salicylic acid + a retinoid can help improve both. Which one do you have? #blackhead #skincaretips #dermatologist
