Fordyce Spots Home Remedies Part 1

Welcome back everyone, today I am going to go through some home remedies and treatment options available for Fordyce Spots.

I will break this post into two as there are a lot of options available some of which work and some that don't.
If you missed my previous introductory post on Fordyce Spots it is available at the link below;

Dietary Changes

As I have mentioned previously, Fordyce Spots are as a result of oil producing glands.

To reduce the amount of oil being produced by the skin avoid the following;

Smoking
Alcohol
Unhealthy Fatty Foods - i.e. french fries, burgers etc.
Preserved or processed food.

Ensure you have a diet rich in the following;

Fresh fruit and veg - garlic and broccoli in particular are known to cleanse the blood - if you don't like garlic I suggest you take a supplement of it.
Water - lots of water, at least 2-3 liters per day.
Healthy Fatty Foods - fish

I have personally tried this and I have found a large reduction in the size and prominence of the spots. Its not a miracle cure but sticking to a good diet definitely helps make them less noticeable

Toothpaste Method

The toothpaste method involves rubbing a very light about of toothpaste onto the spots on a daily basis for 2 to 4 weeks. What tends to happen is that the toothpaste will dry out the spots and cause the skin to peels - this can be painful.

It does definitely reduce the size and prominence of the spots in the short term and I have heard of many cases of good long term results, however, in my own personal experience they do tend to return once the treatment is stopped. 

If you really want to give it a try make sure you moisturize daily to ensure the skin doesn't crack too much and cut back the frequency of application after the 4 weeks to see if you can maintain the results. 

Tea Tree Oil

Tea Tree Oil is a cheap, widely available treatment option. Again similar to the toothpaste method it does dry out the skin and reduce the size of the spots. Along with this, tea tree oil tends to cleanse the pore as it is a natural antiseptic.

Salicylic Acid Washes or Creams - I really recommend this

A lot of acne is treated using face washes etc. which contain Salicylic Acid as a key ingredient.

I have used acne face washes such as Clean and Clear in the shower followed by using a facial cleanser again by Clean and Clear applied using a cotton pad. This routine needs to be repeated daily!

The Salicyclic Acid helps with the removal of layers of dead skin cells which can reduce the appearance of Fordyce Spots.

I personally have had good results with this combined with dietary changes.

The only caveat is that you need to be strict, consistent and structured in your approach otherwise it may not be effective.


In my next post I will cover some of the other Home Remedies available for the treatment of Fordyce Spots! Until then :)
