I have blackheads on the nose since many years. I tried using various scrubs, adapalene gel and salicylic acid and retinoids but no good results. I never got them extracted. Is there any way to get rid of them without extraction? I have seen many people getting more side effects from extractions.

Send pics to diagnose and consult. Sometimes they look like acne but could be something called trichostasus spinulosa which are hair and not blackheads and that requires laser treatment.
Blackheads,Acne or pimples... Due to hormonal changes..Oily skin causes it...Common in adolescent age...May occur in adults also.. Food like Oily foods, ice cream, chocolate and sweets increase it..
