If you pop a zit/pimple when its ready will it leave a scar?

Question

If I dont pop it, will it just go away, even when its ready to pop? Because everytime I get one I pop it and Im not sure if they are scars or blemishes.

Answer 1

How you pop a pimple may be the most important aspect to preventing scars. If you must, put a warm washcloth or tea bag on the area to bring the pus to the surface. Disinfect the surrounding area, then insert a small pin and allow the pus to drain on its own with minimal squeezing. If you have to apply pressure, use qtips to prevent bacteria from your fingernails entering the area, but do not squeeze forcefully with your fingers. This often results in scarring, especially in sensitive skin, but even these will fade, both with time and over the counter aids (such as lemon juice).

Answer 2

Popping a zit/pimple might just got it even worse. Popping may not eventually leave a scar but it can multiply. Be careful of that especially when you're skin is very sensitive. The zit will eventually vanish without doing anything.

Answer 3

ive never had a scar from popping a zit so i guess you wont but it will go away when its ready if not then wash your face or go to the store and get some zit removal

Answer 4

Experts say not to but I could never stand having a whitehead on my face so I always popped mine and I never got a scar from them either. Of course I rarely got them because I kept my face clean, and when I took my showers I used as hot of water as I could stand and let it run over my face.

Answer 5

Answer 6
