Im 19 years old and for about a year now ive at least started to notice my blackheads on my nose. Since then ive been trying everything posible to get rid of them. Benzoyl Peroxide, salysidic acid, Differin, pore strips, blemish extractors, and even Minocycline which a dermatologist prescribed me. I cant get rid of them and it seems like after every treatment i try they just get worse. Im always wiping my nose because they start to seep oil and it looks disgusting. If anyone could offer any advice it would be greatly appreciated.

The same thing happens to me as I can remove those black spots from my face.

I may be wrong but I dont think its black heads your dealing with. It looks like what you call blackheads may be sebaceous filaments. Theyre totally normal but unfortunately they never fully go away. Im not really sure what you can do to treat this.

My nose looks the same. As Faroutbrusslesprout said, not sure if they are blackheads or just sebaceous filaments. However, after using BHA cream for 2-3 weeks they've definitely become fainter and less noticeable. I tried CosRx BHS cream 2-3 times a week and so far I've found it to be a lot more effective than doing extractions (albeit takes time).
