First steps:: Analyze recent diet and/or medication changes. Cleansings with non comedogenic moisturizers with periodic exfoliation and use of a retinol may help. A comedone extractor may be useful for evacuating blackheads without the trauma of picking at them. Ultimately you may benefit from a prescription skin care regimen which should be administered by a dermatologist.
