Simple question, does Differin get rid of blackheads? Especially blackheads on the nose, t-zone etc?

In my experience no, it simply made my nose red -albeit clear(no whiteheads just small blackheads). I've found those pore strips as the only real visible solution.

Yep, I agree with the poster above. I was given differin, and worried about an IB when I was already going through one from my BC I decided to just start using it on my forehead. I never get acne there, but I do have a fair few blackheads, and it's done nothing for them. When I tried it on my nose it just made the sides red, so I guess it was too strong for that area of my face.

Differin does nothing for my blackheads, but Retin A does.

My dermatologist told me not to use it on my nose so I didn't. I only have blackheads on my nose but thanks to Accutane they're going away. I suggest you to get a facial, my blackheads magically disappeared with some creams they used.
