POPPING PIMPLES
Don't damage your skin! Resist the urge to pop your pimples
| When your a teenager or even as an adult, the early sign of a whitehead pimple on your face is very unwelcome. The first thought is "How do I get rid of this ugly pimple?". Well, most people look into the mirror and see if the pimple is "popable". It the pimple is fresh and full of white puss the urge just squeeze or pop the pimple is overwhelming. Sometimes an eventful popping can result in a cracking noise and a puss stained mirror. Though, relief and maybe a little humor may result, your skin has actually undergone a traumatic experience. What has actually happened is a fracture in the outer layes of your skin tissue. The trauma to the skin is very bad and many times bleeding can occur. The most damaging effect, however, is scaring. Popping pimples can and often does lead to scars left on the skin. What should be done then you might ask. A dermatologist would say "leave it as is and let it run its course". Yes, that means having an ugly pimple on your face or body for a period of days until it disappears. The natural course of a pimple will cause the skin to swell, but not rupture the outer layers of the skin. If you refrain from popping your pimples, you reduce the chances of scaring. Having acne is not a fun experience. If you are a teenager, you need to be careful not to scar your skin by popping your pimples. You may regret it when you get older, because the scars will become more prominent later on in your life. |
