Closed pimples generally refer to whiteheads, also known as closed pimples, and can be removed through general treatment, medication, and physical therapy, depending on the condition.

Medication: patients with severe symptoms can use drugs such as adapalene gel or tazarotene gel, which can help dissolve and discharge acne; oral isotretinoin can also be taken to inhibit the activity of sebaceous glands of the hair follicle, reduce sebum secretion, and alleviate the formation of keratosis pilaris; accompanied by infections can be used to treat with drugs such as benzoyl peroxide or azelaic acid.
3. Physical therapy: When the above treatment is not effective, physical therapy such as photodynamic therapy and fruit acid therapy can be considered; if necessary, a professional can use a sterile acne needle to open the mouth of the follicle of the closed acne and squeeze out the stagnant content inside, which needs to be sterilized before and after the operation, and at the same time needs to be treated with anti-inflammatory treatment, so as to avoid self-operation.
