Skin issues
Hello doctor, Actually I can't identify my skin type, It's somewhat sensitive and I have blackheads and whiteheads, the whiteheads tend to form red pimples later, earlier I didn't had any acne. Now if I use Salicylic acid based facewash, my skin is sensitive and tends to get irritated, flaky and swelled up, and during summers also I felt irritated dry and flaky , but if I don't use that my blackheads and whiteheads aren't going away and at the same time even if my skin is dry I have those and in summers my skin turns a bit oily. So what should I use for the dead skin cells or blackheads and whiteheads without damaging my skin barrier?

Blackheads Whitehead, 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.. Treatment depends on the grade of pimples or acne..So, please send photos by direct online consultation as it's a must to see which grade of pimples or acne for accurate diagnosis and treatment.
