it is true. you should instead pull the skin away from your pimple by putting each finger on either side and gently pull the pimple out. don't sqeeze it or push it down because it'll just force bacteria deeper into the skin and cause further infection.

true. dont pop your pimples, when you squeeze and it bursts it basically explodes the skin in different zigs and zags which creates ugly scarring but instead use a sterile needle and barely prick the pimple and it all come out clean and no scarring

yes it's true, by putting pressure on them it causes the bactaria to be pushed further down in the pore and can become infected. kinda gross huh?

It's ok to pop them but digging at them could leave 'pockmarks' in your skin.
