How to treat multiple black dots on the skin?

Hi,

Welcome to icliniq.com.

I went through your query and understood your concern. The black dot you refer to can be anything from a mole to a black head. It is difficult to make a precise diagnosis without seeing your clinical picture. Kindly attach your clinical picture so that it will be convenient for me to comment on your condition and suggest a proper treatment. However, I would like to mention a few skincare tips, and I suggest you to follow them. Wash your face with mild cleansers like Cetaphil if your face is dry. Use Benzoyl Peroxide face wash if your face is oily. Wash your face thrice daily to remove excess oil and dust which accumulates over time on the face. Use sunscreen with SPF (sun protection factor) 50, and apply it to the whole face 30 minutes before you step out, irrespective of the presence of sunlight. UV (ultraviolet) rays are always present during the day (even if cloudy). So, apply every four hours for maximum benefits. This is because sunscreen can only protect your skin from UV rays for four hours. Hence it would be best if you repeated applying the sunscreen every four hours. Always use non-comedogenic sunscreen. Do not pick or squeeze your acne, as it will leave scars and dark pigmentations, which are more difficult to treat. Regular physical exercise is essential to keep the hormones under check. So exercise for at least 40 minutes a day, six days a week. Avoid oil massage to the scalp; it will aggravate dandruff. In addition, if there is oil flow on the facial skin, it can clog the pores leading to comedones. Eat vitamin A-rich fruits and vegetables like papaya, mango, muskmelon, pumpkin, carrot, and beetroot. These foods have beta carotene, a good antioxidant, and are beneficial for healthy skin. In addition, drink two to three liters of water daily, which keeps the skin hydrated. Always use water-based cosmetics with the “non-comedogenic” label. Stress (mental as well as physical) causes acne breakouts. Meditation is very helpful for controlling mental stress, so meditate daily. Do not wax the face for facial hair removal, as waxing irritates hair follicles and can aggravate pimples. However, threading to remove unwanted facial hairs is fine, as threading does not affect acne. Do not use steroid creams. Steroid causes severe acne, making the skin very thin and sensitive. Avoid over-the-counter (OTC) steroid creams like Betnovate (Betamethasone) and Panderm (Fusidic Acid, Clotrimazole, and Clobetasol Propionate). Kindly consult a specialist, talk with them and take the medications with their consent. I hope this information was helpful for you. I hope you get rid of this problem soon. Take care.
