The best way to remove these tiny white heads on forehead is Radio-frequency technique. In this technique we have to apply numbing cream and then with the help of fine radio frequency tip we can remove all the white heads from root, leaving your skin clear of all white heads instantly.
Next Steps
In addition to this you can apply mild Retinoid cream to prevent new white heads.
Health Tips
Avoid picking or touching these white heads as hands 👐 may contain bacteria that can infect these white heads and give rise to active pimples which can spread all over face.
