Blackhead are a result of open skin pores on face. Its a common problem, but sadly pores cannot be closed.

For blackhead removal, best way is to remove them mechanically in a salon/beauty parlour. Then keep skin clean, by regular washing and scrubbing. Also avoiding steam during facial/clean up is helpful, as steam futher enlarges the pores.

Keeping body healthy by good diet, more fluids, keeping fit by exercise and minimizing stress is good for whole body including skin & hair.

Hi
The one you are talking about is it a birth mark or result of some disease. Local application of haldi chandan and malai with kesar in it will gradually fade it out.

Hi pooja,
Welcome to HCM,
Visit nearest dermatologist for proper diagnosis and tratment.
Black spot over face could be due to acne, nevus or birth mark, post inflammatory, melasma, facial melanosis etc.
Treatment depends on diagnosis.
Take care.
