Causes

Acne generally occurs if something builds up on the skin and clogs the pores. The types of acne vary depending on what clogs the pores. Excess oil and dead skin clog the pores to cause.

Anyone can develop. Certain factors that increase your risk include:

• Age: Adolescents are likelier to have blackheads than others.
• Certain medications: Corticosteroids and lithium may alter your hormones and increase your risk of blackheads.
• Genetics: Your risk can increase if one or more of your family members has acne.
• Hormones: Hormone changes during puberty, the menstrual cycle, and pregnancy can increase the risk of blackheads. Levels of androgens, or male sex hormones, rise during puberty. Androgens cause the oil glands to widen.

Prevention

Try some of the following tips to prevent blackheads:

• Avoid tight-fitting hats: Headbands and caps don’t cause, but they might worsen acne. 
• Do not touch your face: It might be super tempting, but don’t try to pop yourself. Popping blackheads may cause bacteria to enter your skin and cause an infection.
• Keep your hair out of your face: Another likely culprit could be your hair. The oil that builds up on your hair can block the pores, especially if you have a fringe or bangs.
