👉 Accident pimples, also known as blackheads or comedones, are a common skin issue caused by clogged hair follicles. They occur when excess sebum (oil) mixes with dead skin cells and dirt, creating a plug that blocks the follicle. This blockage can lead to the formation of blackheads (open comedones) or whiteheads (closed comedones), depending on whether the plug is open to air or not. Accident pimples typically appear on the face, particularly around the T-zone (forehead, nose, and chin), and are often exacerbated by factors like hormonal changes, stress, and environmental pollutants. Unlike acne cysts or nodules, accident pimples are generally less severe but can be uncomfortable and unsightly.
