I have whiteheads. I follow a healthy diet and use facial scrub once a week, but the whiteheads occur and leave black marks. How can I prevent or remove them without my skin getting marks?

Since the pores are not open, whiteheads are difficult to remove. They should not be pinched with the nails as this will leave marks on the skin. A proper cleansing routine is important, according to your skin type. Use a facial scrub twice a week. Some home remedies may help. Make a paste of fenugreek (methi) leaves and apply on the face daily, washing it off after an hour. Grated potato or potato juice may also be applied. Drink six to eight glasses of water daily. Add lemon juice to a glass of water and drink it the first thing in the morning. Drinking barley water also helps.
