skin craters

Name: Amanda Mitchell
Question:

HI DR! IM A 28YR OLD BLACK WOMAN WITH VERY BAD ACNE ON MY CHEEKS. I HAVE A LOT OF BLACKHEADS AND EVERYTIME I WOULD PULL ONE OUT IT WOULD LEAVE A DEEP HOLE, ALMOST LIKE A CRATER. CAN YOU HELP ME BECAUSE THOSE REMEDIES DONT WORK BECAUSE IT LEAVES HOLES IN MY FACE. IS THERE A WAY TO FILE MY SKIN DOWN? PLEASE HELP. THANKYOU

Dear Amada,

The treatment of black heads involves physically removing them as well as proper acne products to prevent them from recurring.

The best way to get rid of your existing black heads is Microderm Abrasion which is like filing your skin. You need to visit a dermatology clinic to get this treatment. You should also use Clearogen as soon as possible to prevent new acne, black heads and white heads.

Eventually you can also get laser resurfacing to remove any scars and holes.
