Should I pop these?
Should I pop these?
I would. They look painful
They kind of feel like I won't get it all out and might just extend it. Probably going to do it anyway
If you can see white, pop it. Always. Whiteheads are nasty to look at and you should pop them before going in public if possible. I say this as someone who has constant pizza face. Even I avoid being seen with whiteheads.
I did the deed, yeah I looked ridiculous. The big one still has a bunch of meat in it that I couldn't get out though
>tfw almost 27
I'm only 20 so I'm still holding out some hope it'll get better, but right now it's still as bad as it was in high school. I've tried all the common tips except accutane, which I'm avoiding because I've heard it can have nasty permanant side effects
are u avoiding consuming oil/high fat foods?
I would pop it and then wash your face and use some hydrogen peroxide on the raw parts since a pimple is essentially an infected pore
I use this all natural toner on a daily basis thats 1 part apple cider vinegar and 3 parts water and it keeps pimples at bay c:
Get a gel peel and facial moisturizer with spf like neutrogena.
Peel once a week and moisturize after you're dry.
You can also find one of these around the makeup asile by the nail clippers.
You've probably had some sort of dairy product recently (pizza included) try to drop that and I'm talking about the sweet stuff too eat that stuff moderately, watch what you eat. And for the love of God drink lots of fucking water im talking a couple jugs right now! and those white heads will go away. To help out put vix or tooth paste on them DONT POP THEM DONT EVER POP THEM. Wash your face twice daily with cold water, pat dry at the end with a designated face towel. always wash after a good sweat too (run/workout)
I did Acutane at 23 and it was tough but it did amazing things for my skin.
I wish I did it when I was 15 so I didn’t have to struggle for years.
Well the big one was worse this morning so I took a razor blade and slice the top out. Probably a bad idea it's definitely going to leave a scar now, fuck.
What kind of side effects does accutane have?
No, once they become white heads its better to just let them take care of themselves. Black heads are acceptable to pop, but the white coloring means that your bodies immune system is already in action against them.
If you try to pop them you'll interrupt the process, making them larger and more inflamed. They will also take more time to heal.
not him but very dry skin, hair loss, extremely painfully chapped lips for months on end which won't go away no matter how much chapstick you use and it will make you break out really badly temporarily.
Op here. Def a bad decision this time. I've found it is hit or miss.
For some reason I've had really bad acne the past few months. I think my hormones are messed up.
>pop them before going in public
i always laugh when people say "don't pop"
in my teens the landscape of my face would change so rapidly throughout the day that they would mutate into their "white" stage before i could even find a mirror, i remember once i was talking to someone, and one of them popped midway the conversation simply due to me moving the muscles on my face kek, i didn't fucking except that at fucking all, if i had the opportunity to manually do that myself beforehand that wouldn't have happened
i am glad i don't have that issue anymore, it was the worst thing i ever had to go through, my entire skin was a wasteland, useless, i felt like a disability, fuck that
So uh new question how do I get the pimple scab to heal quicker?
>constantly has bad acne
>always pops zits
HMM I WONDER IF THESE TWO THINGS ARE RELATED
damn youre so good at spotting patterns you must have a really high IQ
I don't know about you guys but when I "pop" these I actually use a sterilized tack and poke small holes into the skin, then use the tip of the tack to gently push out the puss. Really satisfying, leaves you with no irritation on the pimple and it heals fast.
Keep it moist(petroleum jelly) and covered.
Yeah it will only take a few days to heal. Just pop them
Squeeze them until they completely drain.
use your teeth to pop em
Omg wtf are THESE things ?!
Looks like piercings kek
Uhm, you better pop those with a needle, right in the center.
If you make them bleed, it'll only relapse.
Try to avoid dry skin by using special facial masks. Charcoal masks and clay masks help alot against oily skin.
Aloe Vera cream hydrates the shit out of your pores.
Stop eating oily sugary shit too.
And go see a doctor ?
