Omg I'm actually so happy I found this! I've been having this 'problem' if you will for some years. Maybe around 4 or 5. At first I was freaking out cuz I thought it might be linked to breast cancer but I didn't feel any lumps and I was 19 and with no family history of bc so I discarded it. I've eventually ignored these little blackheads and little hairs but from time to time I wonder what this could mean or if it's normal. It wasn't until today that I decided to put my questioning mind at rest and googled. I'm so glad to see I am not the only one with this! I've always thought myself weird and that my boobs are just not normal as I've always heard boobs should be smooth and all. So yeah, I'm more at ease now a bit. I've noticed that gently scrubbing makes my breast skin smoother and the hairs and blackheads take a while to reappear.
I really think this is because of bra's/sweating. I recently started binding and that's when I started to notice these black heads on my breasts. So if you're keeping your breasts wrapped tight all day in a binder, sports bra or just a tight bra, you're gonna experience this.
I have lots of blackheads under my boobs...please help I want to get rid of em!!
I have the same problem and had it on my thighs upper/ outer thighs and butt ( so embarrassing) the best product I have ever used it a glycolic acid lotion called glycolix it's a skin lotion with Glycolic acid and a bunch of vitamins and minerals. You have to really commit to it and use pretty much every night ( do it every other night when you first get it to not cause irritation). This is the only thing I have ever used that works on BLACKHEADS and also totally made my old scars disappear ( I didn't say it does this but I have also noticed it get rid of stretch marks) it's definitely not cheap but it is safer than steroids and honestly makes my skin feel amazing ... I have even gotten to the point of mixing half and half with a night facial cream and put on my face every night ( be careful not to get in your eyes) but has made my dark eye circles go away also as well as the bad/deeeeeeep blackheads I have on my chin . Hope this helps everyone else!
Yes I do , I wear my bra every night because it just isn't comfortable for me to have them all over the place lol . I noticed I started to get a couple black heads where my bra line is , anyways I really want to know if anyone has found some kind of body scrub or exfoliating method that helps cuz I also have pours that seem dark on my chest
I thought I was the only one. This started for me about 1-2 years ago. Pretty much when I hit 30. I have been really embarrassed and this is the first time I have looked it up. I have been ignoring it. I don't have acne and never have. So this is weird for me. I have blackheads all over my breasts and I don't know how to fix this. Thank you for all the tips.
I don't wear my bra to bed, but ever since I started buying the "right" sized bras (lane Bryant &such) I've been getting it. I thought it was sweat causing it but I'm not sure. It's so embarrassing I can barely show cleavage it's spread so much
No, I have the same issue. My sister and I both have big breast and it seems that we both have the same issue and there is nothing you can do about it. Don't cry
I wore my bra to bed for years and never had this problem until I stopped wearing a bra and started to breastfeed. I think it's from the oils on your hands and picking at it.
I also have this issue I'm 28 years old and have had to be so shy and ashamed of my breasts. Of course my husband will tell me I'm beautiful but I can't help but be insecure. Has anyone just been scared to death thinking is this early breast cancer signs?? Seeing all of your posts puts these thoughts at ease. I am going to try these homemade blackhead removal and see how it goes?!!? I hope it goes well
I have the same thing going on and what I've just tried and it works on the face and my breast as well!! Get activating charcoal tablets 2 pills opened and Elmers Glue to make a paste and apply to your breasts until dry. Peel it up and omgggg I was so shocked and how much of my white and blackheads were pulled out!! I'm going to do it again tomorrow to get what was missed but it's not much. I'm so happy I just had to share!! Good luck
A have large pores and hair in my breasts
I just want to remind everyone that the dark hair around your nipples are normal and not what this lady is talking about. Also the "whiteheads" on your nipples are areoles. Do not squeeze them, their related to breast milk/breast feeding.
They probably aren't blackheads on your nose. They are most likely sebaceous filaments. There may be a few blackheads here and there but a blackhead is exactly as the name describes. I have the same problem and was confused about it for a long time too. Do a little research and you can learn to control them.
I have the exact same thing! I have been told to use a clay mask then wash of with warm water, exfoliate with a blackhead scrub wash or my own invention, cut a nose strip in half and stick then on and then just take it off. Don't worry your never alone but make sure you DONT SQUEEZE THEM!
