Absolutley not. Popping your own pus bubble can worsen the infection and can lead to several different bacterial infections. the only safe way to get rid of a pesky pus bubble is to go to a Dermatologist and get it "Lanced". Lancing is when the doctor sanitized the area to be treated and uses a sanitary scalpel to cut across the infection to release the blood, dead cells and bacteria ("Pus") and bandage it up along with some antibacterial ointment. It'll be much more worth it to go and do it the safe way!

yes it is, but only when its red and not white,because then it would leave a mark on your face.its good to pop the pimples on your face because then you can get all the puss out of it and it can get air inside the pimple to heal it.

You can, but you don't have to.

In my situation I like to pop my pimples, but only pop it if it has a white tip. A white tip means it is ready to be popped, so when you pop it out comes white stuff then it may start to bleed.

One downside of popping pimples is that when it bleeds, thre will be a scab afterwards (which could easily be covered with foundation/cover-up, etc.)

You can buy a pimple-popper (is what I call it) at any local pharmacy.

I hope this helped!!!!!

No. Never ever try to pop your zits - that is a surefire way for you to aggravate your skin condition. Instead, you may apply topical ointments that will dry out the pimple or apply natural acne removal methods. Still, the best option, of course, is to have a medically-trained personnel to check your skin problem.

Absolutely not. It could create a scar or more un-wanted acne.

No, try drying it up instead with a clay mask. Popping it will only feed the infection and may cause a scar.

No, it is a very unhygenic thing to do. Just apply cleanser everyday.

If you choose to do so, do it only in sterile conditions with a sterilzed needle. Keep it covered and protected from sweat. If the area stays painful and red, visit a doctor.
