Hi. Greetings. Black heads and white heads are actually a type of acne. You need to get them removed by comedone extraction and prevent their recurrence by using topical retinoid under prescription of a dermatologist. This will also improve appearance of pores over time. Use a benzoyl peroxide based face wash. Hope this helps. Warm regards Dr Govind S Mittal.
