Natural Treatment for Face Bumps

White bumps could be whiteheads that result from over active sebaceous glands. Whiteheads are a type of acne called comedones and result from sebum and dead skin cells that are blocked into the pores. One thing that is of absolute importance is a regular and thorough skin-care regimen. You need to make sure you cleanse your skin using any mild anti-bacterial soap or face wash, twice a day. If you use face wash with salicylic acid or benzoyl peroxide it may help in controlling the appearance of these whiteheads. You can also make sure you use a refreshing face scrub once or twice a week. Use a light moisturizer that is non-comedogenic, i.e. will not exacerbate the oiliness of your skin.

Use a steam treatment once every three-four days. Bring a vessel-full of water to boil. Add 8-10 drops of tea tree oil or lavender oil and inhale the vapours. The steam will help in opening up and unclogging the pores and you could gently massage the whiteheads out with a terry towel. Make sure you close the open pores after this treatment by rubbing a cube of ice over or splashing your face with cold water. Consult a reputed dermatologist in case the problem persists after 5-10 weeks, in spite of the remedies recommended.
