Leave it alone. That is the best advice. It will scab no matter what you do. It won't necessarily scar unless you keep touching it/ripping the scab off. Just let it be and it will heal. Don't pick at it. That is the best advice.

Wear a cap! You don't want any sun on that pimple! it will leave a scar. The Wallgreen's scar removal lotion is pretty good. Don't touch it, rub it, put alcohol, and a friend told me that if you use Visine on a pimple, it will go away. That might help you in the future.

Well, first of all, stop picking at it. You worsened it now you picked at it and don't listen to these STUPID people saying you should put on rubbing alcohol, toothpaste, etc. Get some benzol peroxide to spot treat on it, or a salicylic acid spot treater. No, a face wash containing this ingredient doesn't count. In fact, that cleanser serves no purpose to your skin as the ingredients aren't on there long enough to actually have any effect. It simply just dries it out. Go here - www.acne.org and go to the message boards, you will find endless information on thousands of things about acne.

You should wash it gently three times a day with a acne care product (i use proactive's "Deep Clenseing Wash") Then apply a big gob of some oil absorbing lotion (i use proactive's "Body Lotion " and by morning all my acne is gone!:)) Then let it sit when it is gone apply a lotion that won't make it worse to calm the skin (i use philosophy's "Hope in a Jar" it doesn't irritate my skin or cause acen and it leaves my skin in the morning looking better than ever,,,,,,, i think it helps take away acne.) Good luck!:):):):)

Do not touch it or pick at it or squeeze it. Wash it gently with your face soap and apply rubbing alcohol on it and it will scab up and eventually go away. Its not going to go away over night. Its best that pimples be left alone, because picking at them aggrivates them and cuases baterial infection. Just repeat the same process at night and in the morning, and try to conceal it with concealer in the meantime.

don't sqeeze or pop because it will give you a scar but it is best to wash gently with soap and apply rubbing alcohol to it and it should go away eventually without a scar!
and for little zits wash thoroughly and to reduce redness dab with ice.
I used to get them all the time until I started to take a vitamin supplement called BETA CARETENE and it is good to keep skin relatively clear and zit free!
GOOD LUCK (:

If you put some Neosporin ointment on it, that is proven to help prevent scarring on any type of wound, so it will definitely help stop the scarring on your face. Zits stink...good luck
