Hello, welcome to Healthcaremagic. The blackheads is a common issue faced in adolocence especially as it occurs due to bloackade of oil glands and infection by bacteria. Long term treatment is primarily inclusive of skin care. You must regularly wash your face with a oil removing face wash and scrubbing agents everyday. Avoid going out in direct sunlight and pollution. Avoid eating oily food. Good skin care will prevent your skin issues on long term basis. Wish you good health.
