blackheads on face of 11 yr old
Posted: 12-27-07 13:14pm

My friends daughter is 11 yrs old,and she has alot of blackheads on her forehead,cheeks,nose and chin.Is it because she's getting to the age that she is going to be a young lady?No matter what we get her to use on her face it seems like it doesn't work,or maybe does she have to use it more often?Could some one give us some advice? Confused

Some people produce more oil naturally that comes to the surface in the pores of the skin where hair is present. You will notice that every pore also has a tiny little hair next to it.

I might recommend you look at her diet. If she is eating lots of fatty, oily foods ... stop! Get her on a diet of mainly fruits and vegetables and see what happens after 6 weeks, or so.
