will hydrogen peroxide work???

Peroxide will kill the infection beneath the scab. The infection has to be gone for the scab/pimple to completly heal.

Stay calm. First clean it good with peroxide. Soak a cotton ball in peroxide and hold on the spot till the scab softens and comes off. squeeze again (make sure all the infection is out) then hold the cotton ball over the spot for about 5 -10 minutes (as long as you can stand it) . Now take a small tiny piece of raw potato, no skin, and it shoulp be thin enough to see through. Place the potato over the spot. cover with a bandaid over night. The Potato will draw the wound to close it quickly, and help it heal faster. I have had many of these over time. It Works, but you may need to do it more than one night.

well i understand the temptation.
this is what i do after i pop a pimple. neosporin.
its like a miracle worker, put it on about 3x a day. and the scar should start healing
it should heal the scab enough by day 6.
wash your face regularly with water alone, and try not to use a lot of make up on your face which probably causes the break outs, by covering your pores. if you do have to use make up i recommend that mineral powder from L'oreal
its so light it looks like foundation, but it doesnt cover your pores and you wont break out as much

Use a Q-tip with peroxide on the tip, gently cleanse the scab. Then apply a small dab of Miracle Whip. I swear by it. It is all natural and completely healthy to apply to your face, hair, nails, etc. There is a natural chemical in it from eggs that works wonders. I cannot remember the chemical name tho. Works really fantabulous on fever blisters, puffy eyes, hair and nails. Good luck.

To reduce the redness hold an icecube to them for about 10 minutes. It will be cold, but will reduce the swelling and redness. Wash your face and tomorrow just use a little concealer to hide it, but don't use a ton of face makeup on those spots, because it will just make it worse. And next time, don't pinch! It makes it worse, because your hands have so much dirt and oil on them. Only pop when they are absolutely ready and when you do, pinch it using a hand towel, and not bare hands.

Oh my dear,
If you gonna have a wedding in 6 days. The BEST way is go to consult with dermatologist at Skincare Center/Clinic as soon as possible!!
There're laser treatments/AHA peeling that could help that scap dissappear very very soon.
Hope this could help you a bit.

honestly, i think your best bet is not to touch it at all. I know its really really hard, trust me. i'm the queen of picking scabs and popping zits, but seriously leave it the hell alone. it should heal a little everyday til it'll be barely noticable by the 6th day.
