Blackheads

A blackhead (technically known as an open comedo) is a yellowish or blackish bump or plug on the skin. An open comedo or blackhead is a type of acne vulgaris. It is caused by excess oils that have accumulated in the sebaceous gland’s duct. Blackheads are typically caused by excessive oil and makeup. While the contents inside may look dark, it is not dirt; the substance found in these bumps mostly consists of keratin and modified sebum (an oily secretion of the sebaceous gland) [1] Possible factors that cause blackheads include :

• Excess dead cells blocking the opening to the pore
• Excess production of facial oil
• Improper cleansing routine, facial oil not being removed
• Excess scrubbing of the skin (Scrubs)
• Use of products/makeup (foundations, sunscreens, and moisturizers) that may contain too much oil
• Use of low quality facial cleansing products

Razor bumps

I. Definition: Pseudofolliculitis barbae (razor bumps) is a common condition of the beard area occurring in African American men and other people with curly hair. The problem results when highly curved hairs grow back into the skin causing inflammation and a foreign body reaction. Over time, this can cause keloidal scarring which looks like hard bumps of the beard area and neck.

II. Causes: Blade shaving sharpens the ends of the hairs like a spear. The hairs then curve back into the skin causing pseudofolliculitis barbae.

III. Treatment: A 100% effective treatment is to let the beard grow. Once the hairs get to be a certain length they will not grow back into the skin.
