A type of acne, blackheads are open skin bumps that become blocked by excess oil and dead skin. Essentially, blackheads are large blockages in your pores, Dr. Zeichner says. Blackheads blossom on your face (sometimes on your neck, back and chest) when a hair follicle or sebaceous (oil) gland becomes inflamed, according to the Cleveland Clinic.
