[|Human|] Hi, my name is emily and i need advice from a dermatoligist reguarding small red bumps that have started to come up on my face within the past couple months. They arent module acne but rather small red bumps and tiny whiteheads. I have tried everything under the sun, and seen and esthetician and nothing is helping. What can i do?
[|AI|]  Hello Emily, Thank you for posting on Chat Doctor. Whiteheads are basically a type of acne. Any cosmetics or medication can block the pores and cause acne. Especially sunscreen are notorious to cause acne because they are oil based most of the time. Try using water-based sunscreen as they have the least chances of causing acne.Also, on daily basis use a retinoid like retinoid in lower percentage like 0.25 at nighttime over full face to prevent new eruption of acne and for healthy glowing skin. Use a gentle cleanser for oily skin like detail OS on regular basis. Chat Doctor.  Hope this will take care of your issue. Wish you best of health. Thank you
