I deleted the part about oil from the fingers causing blackheads because I went to my dermatologist today and he told me that this is just a myth. - —The preceding unsigned comment was added by 74.65.212.35 (talk • contribs).

[edit] Major Changes

Person above - next time provide a source, I could say that my dermatologist said pigs flying were the cause of acne, but that doesn't mean that it should be added. But that being said, I have removed the treatment/causes sections and added sources to the article. This page says blackheads are a type of acne ... (forgot the type). That type of acne is linked (there is another wp article on it). In it there was a fully cited section on treatment and causes (this I noted), so therefore there is no need to have a treatment/causes section here (especially since it wasn't cited at all) - I see that as repetitive.
