Those hard white balls that come out of pimples are known as sebum plugs or comedones. They are typically a mix of dead skin cells, oils, and other debris that block the pore and harden over time. This process can lead to the formation of whiteheads or blackheads. Proper skincare, including cleansing and exfoliation, can help prevent the formation of these plugs.
