skin (pimples) is the most crucial organ of human body

The skin of an adult represents an area of about 1.5 m2 and weighs between 6 and 8 pounds. It is composed of two trillion cells, with a thickness of 1mm to 4mm. The skin is tough, but it can become brittle in case of imbalance.

As attacks are not too many and that the body has all its capital sun and health, the skin can repair itself from blackhead, but when the attacks are too high or the sun capital is exhausted, this system malfunctions or doesn’t function at all.

To preserve a healthy skin, against skin pimples the whole life, and to know how to find the best way to get rid of blackheads, it is important to understand its operation.

The skin is composed of: epidermis, dermis and hypodermis.

The epidermis of the skin (pimples)   

The epidermis is the most superficial layer, which is in contact with the outside world, and the layer that contain blackheads. The epidermis is the surface of the skin. It is composed of dead cells that are removed continuously.

The epidermis is composed of:

• Keratinocytes
•  melanocytes
• Langerhans cells

Keratinocytes: from the deepest layer of the epidermis (called germinal layer or basal layer) they migrate to the surface of the skin and renewed regularly. They are filled with keratin – highly resistant filaments, the same as those found in hair and nails – and fat. During their migration, these cells gradually flatten and eventually die on the surface of the skin. They then form the stratum layer, genuine semi-permeable shield. 50 microns of the eyelids, the stratum layer can reach one centimeter on the palms and soles.

Melanocytes: under the effect of ultraviolet radiation, these cells produce melanin, the pigment that causes tanning. Melanin is transferred to the keratinocytes which it protects the core.


Langerhans cells: from bone marrow, they belong to the immune system defenses. They protect intruders by capturing (chemicals, viruses, bacteria, allergy factors). They also spot abnormal cells and trigger their elimination.

The dermis skin (pimples)

The dermis is the second layer of the skin. The dermis is rich in collagen and elastic fibers, which provide the skin its strength and elasticity. The dermis is just below the epidermis. This is where the cells multiply to replace those that are removed. Unlike the epidermis, it contains many blood vessels that provide nutrition to the skin. We found in the dermis specific nerve endings, sensitive to touch, to pain and temperature that allow the protection and repair of damaged tissues. Indeed, the dermis is mainly composed of a protein called collagen, which develops scar tissue to repair cuts and abrasions. The dermis also contains the base of the hair. Below the dermis we find the hypodermis.

The hypodermis skin

The hypodermis is the deepest layer of the skin and the third layer of it. Below the dermis we find the hypodermis which is a subcutaneous fat layer. This layer of skin is rich in fat and blood vessels, its role is to absorb the pressures to which the skin is subjected and protect the body from temperature variations. The hypodermis is mainly found in parts of the body to withstand an important impact, such as the buttocks or heels. It is virtually non-existent in the other areas.
