Whiteheads Treatment at The Beautiful Skin Clinic Gangnam Branch
Clogged Pore Clearing & Sebum Balance Care
Whiteheads are closed comedones formed when excess sebum, dead skin cells, and debris become trapped inside pores beneath the skin surface. Unlike blackheads, they remain covered by skin, appearing as small white or flesh-colored bumps.

At The Beautiful Skin Clinic Gangnam Branch, whitehead treatment protocols are customized for Asian skin types and acne-prone skin, focusing on gentle extraction, sebum regulation, and long-term pore stability while protecting skin barrier balance.

What Are Whiteheads?
Whiteheads develop when clogged pores remain closed at the surface, preventing oxidation. Treatment helps:

• Safely remove closed comedones
• Improve clogged pore condition
• Regulate excess sebum production
• Smooth uneven skin texture
• Reduce risk of inflammatory acne
• Support clearer and more refined complexion

Rather than aggressive squeezing, treatment emphasizes controlled extraction and structured oil management.

Common Causes & Concerns Addressed
Whitehead treatment is commonly recommended for:

• Small white or flesh-colored bumps
• Oily or combination skin
• Congested T-zone
• Makeup buildup-related clogging
