What Causes Blackheads and Clogged Pores?

Blackheads are small plugs of oil and dead skin that sit in an open pore. The top of the plug meets the air and turns dark, which is why it looks black. It is not dirt. The main causes of clogged pores are extra oil, dead skin that does not shed well, and heavy products. Hormones, genes and touching your face play a part too.

Dubai’s heat makes this worse. Sweat, humidity and layers of sunscreen and makeup can all sit in the pores through the day. Clogged pores on the face show most on the nose, chin and forehead, where oil glands are busiest. Squeezing or using pore strips can push the plug deeper, cause redness and leave marks. A gentle, regular routine and in-clinic cleansing work better.

Procedure at a glance

Is it painful?

Mild. Extraction can feel like light pressure or a pinch. HydraFacial suction feels like a gentle pull. A peel may tingle for a few minutes.

Is there any downtime?

Usually none. Skin may look a little pink for a few hours after extraction. Some peels cause light flaking for a few days.

How many sessions needed?

One facial clears current blackheads. Most people repeat a facial or peel every 4–6 weeks to keep pores clear.

When can I see the result?

Pores look cleaner straight after a facial. Peels show more change after 1–2 weeks.

How long does the procedure take?

Depends on the treatment. Most sessions take 30–60 minutes.

What Areas Can Be Treated?

The best blackhead treatment depends on your skin type and how congested your pores are. A HydraFacial uses suction to lift out plugs while it hydrates. A deep cleansing facial uses steam and careful manual extraction. If you also get spots, an acne facial treats both. Chemical peels loosen oil and dead skin inside the pore, so fewer blackheads form. Knowing how to get rid of blackheads for good also means a simple daily routine, which the clinic explains at your visit.

HydraFacial

Cleansing, exfoliation and gentle suction clear pores while serums hydrate the skin. It suits most skin types, including skin that is both oily and dry.

Deep Cleansing Facial

A facial treatment to remove blackheads with steam, exfoliation and careful manual extraction. It focuses on the nose, chin and jawline, then calms the skin with a mask.

Acne Facial

Deep cleansing, extractions and antibacterial actives for blackheads that come with spots and breakouts. It helps lower oil and calm redness.

Chemical Peels

A peel loosens the glue between dead skin cells and clears oil from inside the pore. Peels with salicylic acid are often chosen for blackheads.

pH Formula Treatment

A guided resurfacing program that renews the skin surface and helps rebalance it. It may suit congested skin that is also sensitive.

Who Is an Ideal Candidate?

Blackhead removal suits most adults and teens with oily, combination or congested skin. The doctor or therapist checks your skin first to choose the right facial or peel and how deep to go.

You May Be an Ideal Candidate If You:

Have blackheads on the nose, chin or forehead

Have blackheads on the face that keep coming back

Have oily or combination skin that feels congested

Wear sunscreen and makeup every day

Want clear pores without squeezing at home

This Treatment May Not Be Suitable If You:

Have a skin infection, cold sore or open wounds

Have severe inflamed or cystic acne that needs medical care first

Have had a strong peel or laser treatment in the last few weeks

Use strong retinoids or isotretinoin (Roaccutane)

Treatment Process at Roxana Aesthetics Clinic

Doctor Consultation and Skin Assessment

Your skin is checked for oil levels, congestion and sensitivity. You will be asked about your routine and products. This shows whether you have blackheads, whiteheads, active acne or just visible pores.

Your Treatment Plan

The doctor recommends the right facial or peel, or a mix of both. You will know how often to come back and what to change at home.

Cleansing and Preparation

Makeup, sunscreen and surface oil are removed. Gentle exfoliation and sometimes steam soften the plugs inside the pores.

The Treatment Session

Blackheads are cleared with suction or careful manual extraction, or loosened with a peel. A calming mask settles the skin, and you get aftercare advice, including daily sunscreen.

Follow-Up and Maintenance

Pores fill up again over time, so regular facials or peels keep them clear. The plan is adjusted to your skin and the season.

FAQ's
Discover Everything You Need to Know
What are blackheads?

Blackheads are open pores clogged with oil and dead skin that turn dark when they meet the air. They are a mild form of acne. Whiteheads are the same kind of plug, but the pore is closed, so they stay white. Both blackheads and whiteheads respond to regular cleansing, exfoliation and in-clinic facials.

How do I remove blackheads from my nose?

The safest way is a professional facial with gentle extraction or suction. Blackheads on the nose are common because the pores there are bigger and oilier. Many grey dots on the nose are sebaceous filaments, which are normal and refill within weeks. A HydraFacial or deep cleansing facial clears both for a while.

Is it safe to squeeze blackheads at home?

It is best not to. Squeezing can push oil deeper, tear the skin and cause redness, spots or dark marks. Pore strips and harsh scrubs can also irritate the skin. If you want to know how to remove blackheads safely, use a gentle exfoliant at home and leave extraction to a trained professional.

What is the best facial for clogged pores: HydraFacial or deep cleansing?

Both work well, and the best facial for clogged pores depends on your skin. A HydraFacial uses suction and hydrates at the same time, so it suits skin that is oily but also dry or sensitive. A deep cleansing facial uses manual extraction, which can reach stubborn plugs.

Do clogged pores go away on their own?

Sometimes, but blackheads often stay until they are cleared. Gentle exfoliation helps the skin shed dead cells so some plugs loosen. Deep or old blackheads usually need extraction or a peel. Without good daily care, new ones keep forming.

Why do I get so many blackheads in Dubai?

Heat, sweat and humidity increase oil and help pores clog. Daily sunscreen, which is a must in Dubai, can add to buildup if it is not fully removed at night. Double cleansing in the evening and an oil-balancing routine help.

Can a chemical peel help blackheads?

Yes. A peel dissolves the oil and dead skin that block pores, so fewer blackheads form. It also smooths the skin surface. Peels are often repeated a few weeks apart and can be paired with facials.

Will blackheads come back after removal?

Yes, they usually come back with time, because your skin keeps making oil. Blackhead removal is not permanent. Regular facials or peels and a simple routine keep them under control and make them less noticeable.

Blackheads or large pores: what is the difference?

Blackheads are plugs inside the pore, while large pores are about pore size. Clearing blackheads makes pores look smaller for a while. Pores that stay large even when clean may need collagen-building treatments.

How often should I get a facial for blackheads?

Most people do well with a facial every 4–6 weeks. This matches the time it takes for pores to refill. Very oily skin may need it more often, especially in summer.
