What is closed comedones

Many girls are not quite clear about what closed comedones are. Closed comedones grow on the face. Although they are not painful or itchy, they feel uneven and cannot be covered with makeup. For such areas that are difficult to cover, you should first clean your face with warm water, clean the stratum corneum on your face regularly, apply vitamin A ointment appropriately, and pay attention to exercise regularly. These can all help the skin adjust.

Many girls have closed comedones on their faces. Although they don’t hurt or itch, they feel bumpy and cannot be covered up with makeup. Especially when facing the light, the small bumps on the face look really disgusting. Next, I will teach you how to treat closed comedones

Use a gentle cleanser:

Proper cleansing of the skin and proper exfoliation can reduce the appearance of closed comedones. It is necessary to maintain a balance in cleansing to avoid damaging the skin, which will cause the skin to secrete more oil and be more prone to closed comedones. Therefore, when washing your face, try to choose a mild cleanser that makes your face clean without leaving any tightness. Also discard those cleansers that make your face feel fake and slippery after washing.

Apply vitamin A ointment:

If the "closed comedones" problem is very serious, or even tends to become inflamed, it is best to go to the hospital to see a professional dermatologist for a face-to-face consultation. Generally speaking, doctors will use some vitamin A drugs to treat acne problems to help renew the stratum corneum and suppress inflammation. However, vitamin A drugs such as retinoic acid are a very strong inorganic acid, which is very irritating. They will weaken the defense ability of the stratum corneum barrier and have significant side effects. Therefore, they must be used strictly in accordance with the doctor's orders. It is not recommended to purchase and try on your own.

Keep exercising:

Regular sweating to detoxify can also eliminate closed comedones. For a period of time, I insisted on doing yoga in the morning and weight loss exercises in the evening. My face became much smoother and most of the closed comedones disappeared.

Choose skin care products containing salicylic acid:

Salicylic acid is very effective in exfoliating. In addition, it can promote skin metabolism, shrink pores, clean blackheads, effectively reduce fine lines and wrinkles, and help restore skin radiance. Apply salicylic acid essence to the areas where there are closed comedones, or apply salicylic acid essence in the morning and evening. The closed comedones will disappear after a period of time.
