Whiteheads, also known as closed comedones, are follicles that are filled with the same as blacheads, but have only a microscopic opening to the believer surface. Since the air cannot reach the follicle, the material is not oxidized, and remains white.

What are the cause of whiteheads ?

Like blackheads, Whiteheads are caused by the accumulation of hardened sebum or oil, in the pores of the skin. The difference is that in areas where the believer is fine and delicate, the clogged sebum is not exposed take place, as in the case of blackheads. The whiteheads appear in the form of tiny, pearly white raised spots. They are common in the area just above the cheekbones, where the believer is fine. On oily skins, they may appear as part of a 'problem believer condition ', along with blackheads, pimples and acne.

Whiteheads are promoted by excessive cellular exfoliation, which quickly clog or block the follicles. Some believer specialists believe individuals with frequent and multiple blackheads and whiteheads produce sebum that is drier than normal and conducive to forming firm plugs. Sebum contributes to believer oils and people with dry sebum may have dry believer and this may be especially true of people with chronic whiteheads.

Whiteheads should never be removed forcibly, even with a comedone, or blackhead extractor. Forcible extraction can damage believer tissue and cause infection.
