Sebaceous filaments are a normal part of healthy skin. They are tiny collections of sebum within the pores and commonly appear as small greyish, yellowish or dark dots, especially on the nose and cheeks. They can easily be mistaken for blackheads, but they are different. Since they naturally refill, trying to squeeze or remove them repeatedly can irritate the skin. Gentle skincare and appropriate dermatological treatment can help make them less noticeable.
