People of any age can have blackheads problems, but most often it is a problem that occurs during adolescence. Blackheads occur frequently on the face, especially the nose. They can also occur on ears or anywhere else on the body.

In medical terms, blackheads are called open comedones and are nothing else large pores. Follicles are actually plugs made of dead cells and sebum that blocks the oxidation of melanin (a substance that determine skin color) and become black.
