I am attending a wedding tomorrow and therefore cannot have any unsightly blemishes on my face. Two days ago i developed a pimple, and instead of thinking of any rational way to remove it I decided to basically rip it apart. Now I have a large scab on my chin and I need to know methods to make it heal quicker. I need to know soon, if possible. Do you know any household items I could use to make it heal quicker, or any products I can find at the local drug store? Best answer 10 points. Thanks!

Scabs dont heal, they fall off. First....QUIT PICKING AT IT.....
second....Use a warm wet washcloth and hold it on here for at least 10 minutes (this will help to draw out any puss stuck in there) Let me stress again the warm wet cloth.....after it has been on there a while GENTLY squeeze it to draw out any more puss. I would go buy just some simple benzoil peroxide and put it on there many times a day. If you have some times to spare.....put a huge dab on....and dont even rub it in just leave it there

Dry and/or greasy skin due to poor oil composition of the skin. Thick greasy oils clog pores, lack of oil leads to dryness and irritation. You need thin oils to moisturize while dissolving and clearing gunk in your poors. Try fish oil or seafood. 2 tsp fish oil a day or 4 servings of seafood a week. Stick it out for at least 2 months; it will take a long time to replace all your oil. Any effect after 1-2 days is temporary or random; so even if it makes you break out a little at first, you haven't given it a full try yet.
In the short term you can wash and moisturize well, but that will only go so far. Plus excessive washing can be drying and excessive moisturizing can be clogging. Use a small amount of a light moisturizer, made with oil not jelly or grease. Often that means soybean oil or mineral oil. Mineral oil means mined from the ground. So soybean oil is usually better, though mineral oil won't cause too much harm. Clean with soap and water, not a harsh acne cleanser. Even then they only work so well. So you really need the seafood.
Antibiotics aren't really good for bacteria long term, they'll come back in force after. Short term they may help. After you get off them find some kefir with acidophilus listed first or 2nd to replace the friendly bacteria they destroyed. Studies show less illness when you have these bacteria, even outside the stomach in places such as the lungs and elsewhere. You want friendly bacteria to fill the void when the antibiotics stop, not harmful ones.
In the short term you might also try 100,000+ iu retinol vitamin A (a megadose, and too much for normal use) or one of the acne drugs that is similar to retinol vitamin A. It's some minor harm to your organs, but it helps against bacteria on your skin. At least it doesn't have the other long term drawbacks to your skin that antibiotics and many scrubs do.
If you would like to learn how to treat your acne permanently and regain your health and wellbeing, without drugs, without typical acne treatments, and without any side effects, then this will be the most important letter you will ever read.

Well,i am an expert at getting rid of that,but i have a bad habit of not wanting 2!!! lol,anywayz,this will do the trick!! 1st: Clean your face with a normal Baby wipe,(this will open your pores!) 2nd: Use a product called Apricot Scrub,but buy the cheap one. 3rd: Use another product called Oxypads, they are acne wipes. 4th: Apply Vitamin E cream to your face. Do this for a few days or how ever long you like and you will have clear skin! Also If you have a painful red pimple or blemish, Put an ice cube on it, this will reduce redness and swelling! Good Luck!

Get some Aquaphor, you can find it in any local store by the lotions. It works great for this and a number of other things. But I use it most for this vary reason, I have the bad instinct to do the same thing when I see something on my face, this stuff works miracles for me!!! Just rub a small amount in every hour or so.

nothing scabs take more than a day to go away, in the meantime just use some concealer to hide it

Toothpaste. If you can stay out of the public for a while and keep fresh toothpaste on there it should dry up and diminish in size quickly (24 hours) Also the bandaids that have the antibacterial cream on it would be and extra additional cover. Good Luck!!

Use makeup and cover it. Ask a woman to help you. You will still know it is there but it will be less noticeable

Don't think about it. Don't touch. Don't do anything. Only time will heal it. Anything you do will ONLY MAKE IT WORSE.
