Blackheads are a type of comedonal acne that respond best to treatment with topical retinoids, which can only be prescribed by Doctors/Dermatologists:

uhm i would see a derm hun. i dont want to tell you what to do- but its worth the money to go to a specialist than take a chance and throw your money at random products run by big corporations, endorced by celebrities that just want your money. Dont try proactive- just dont.

I hope you know getting accutane or any medication prescribed by a dr. or derm through a friend or online is actually illegal. The side effects made you change your mind? You jeopardize yourself and your friend if you are caught with the medicine that isn't prescribed to you. If you were even searched or pulled over and had a slide of accutane in your purse or bag without docs orders- the meds will be seized and you will have cuffs around your wrists. Theres a reason types of meds are only obtainable through a dr... jeezus. Dont be a dummy please.
