My husband has lots on his nose. I pull them out but what can he do to stop them returning. He uses moisturer and face scrub once a week.

A whitehead is a collection of sebum and keratin that plugs the opening of the pilosebaceous unit (skin pore) and imbeds itself in the follicular canal under the skin so that it looks like a raised, white bump. It is also often called as a closed comedone.
Removing Whiteheads
1. Exfoliate the whitehead prone area 3-4 times a week using facial exfoliators and scrubs. Here is a good SCRUB for you to help you to get rid of whiteheads
2. Use creams containing AHAs (Alpha Hydroxy Fruit acids) like glyco-creams that will clear away any dead skin cells, and helps in unclogging the pores to remove whiteheads.
Dealing with Whiteheads - A word of caution
Never remove a whitehead forcibly; because in case of whiteheads the pore is not open. Forcibly removing a whitehead can damage the skin tissue and spread infection.
More tips on whiteheads
1. Drink lots of water and fresh juices.
2. Eat fresh fruits and vegetables.
3. First thing in the morning - Have a glass of warm water with the juice of lemon. It helps in detoxifying the body.

Whiteheads have roots (like fungi) and unlike pimple, you could squeeze them out but they will evetually be there again, only a lot worse. Go visit your dermatologist and get your husband a deep tissue facial. Some doctors might recommend cauterizing the whitehead so they wont grow back again.

Use it everyday. The moisturizer maybe clogging his pores. Try a non-comedogenic mosturizer.

scrub daily, not once a week, thats gross. He needs to scrub that nose daily, til it shines. And popping black or white heads causes scarring ( pox)
