Causes of blackheads:<\/strong>
\nBlackheads are the small black bumps (comedone) that are developed on skin due to clogged hair follicles. These hair follicles are closed by the excess production of sebum, a form of oil secreted by the sebaceous glands that keeps skin soft and supple, and building-up of dirt, toxic elements and dead skin cells that damage the texture of skin.
\nThere are a few more factors responsible for the development of blackheads, such as:<\/p>\n

Development of Propionibacterium acnes
\nHormonal changes in the body
\nExcess release of sebum during menstruation
\nConsumption of birth control pills
\nIrritation of the hair follicles
\nReaction from drugs like androgens, corticosteroids and lithium
\nGenetics
\nExcess use of chemical or cosmetic products
\nMental and physical stress
\nSmoking and alcohol drinking<\/p>\n
