Does popping your zits actually help?

does popping your zits help or make it worse? i heard that popping your zits aggrivates your skin and makes you break out more but i dont know if its true. plz help.Does popping your zits actually help?
i heard that too so when i was going through puberty years ago i wouldnt touch the zits i'd sometimes get on my face...but then i was like hell with it and start popping them...they actually healed much faster!Does popping your zits actually help?
i pop all of them Report Abuse

It could induce scarring if it is done the wrong way. Especially if it is cystic (meaning closed, with no apparent opening). But it you really want to pop it, better wait till the puss is ';ripe'; or meaning the pimple is alrady mature for it will be easier to pop and it would minimize any unwanted effects on your skin. Make sure to use sterile means of doing so.
Actually, it's not such a good idea to pop zits. Problem is that the open zit is at risk for getting infected. One thing that might help is to dab a bit of rubbing alcohol or witch hazel on the offending blemish. This will help it dry up, but it won't disappear suddenly in some magic way. Zits are a fact of life and sometimes you just have to live with them.
Leaves scares at the end when it heals... However I've been told it can be popped but must be popped by a incision. This creates a cleaner cut and lets it heal better because of less surface area when the skin is broken. Unlike popping it by hand it rips the skin causing more surface area on the skin for it to heal.
i think it helps if its what i call ready,lol weird i know but when its ready or able to be popped easy then it helps and makes the go away faster. if its like under the skin and would be hard to mess with and makes a wound then dont. and once you do pop one clean your face and apply neosporin.
For me it depends on what type of pimple it is... If it's more like a boil it doesn't help me.. usually leaves a big sore and can scar. but if it's close to the surface and white it helps mine... I bought on of those stainless steel tools for pimples and wash and sterilize it. Finger nails contain lots of bacteria.
oh wow no way....


dont pop ur zits just go see a dermatologist i mean u have to pay a price but its better not to pop them yourself...because most likely you have dirty fingers(like germs) and your spreading in on your face and popping zits causes infective bacteria come out and spread to other spots on ur face...so no good!


ohhh just try not touching ur face AT ALL...i know its freaking hard!


g luck
Popping your zits can lead to scarring. It does not help to at all. It can actually take longer for the area to heal if you pop them.


Try some different zit creams to see what works best for you to keep the zits under control.
It only helps for short term, but in a day or so it becomes a scar (for me at least.) I try not to pop them and i just put a good dab of toothepaste on one before bed. It always washes away in the morning!
It helps in leaving a small hole and scar, or better known after a few of them are picked and have scared your own face for life is ';pocket Face'; looks terrible in sunlight end Even worse in tanning bed light,
Usually that's the best way to cause infection. Best bet is to try a hot wet washcloth, that will open most of them, just hold it in place, don't scrub.
If you dont pop them right and have to fiddle with them they will leave a scar. If you do want to pop it make sure your hands have just been washed.
Popping your zits only irritates them and makes it longer for the pimple to heal... so just put medication on it and let it heal on its own!
It may be entertaining but it doesn't actually help. It just helps make way for more bacteria to get in and make a bigger infection. Leave them alone!
NO!!! It will take longer to heal and more than likely leave a scar (little ugly brown spots or worse) Save your skin dont Pick!!!
It does'nt help, wit some people it causes scars and that's how they get that kinda crater face look.


Leave'em alone %26amp; let them go down on their own.
It can make them worse and induce scarring if you don't do it correctly.
If I don't pop a big zit it will be a huge problem for me because all I'll think about is popping it!
You arent suppose to pop them.
no! use toothpaste, seriously. Leave it on overnight, the zit should be gone by the next morning
I know it leaves a dark spot.
Not usually, but it sure is fun!!!
It helps me.
noo,,


it makes scars and spreads it
I always pop zits.And now I am 59 my face is clear and so is my wifes face
no if you actually pop it, it heals faster
nope cause after you have popped them they can leave a scare
it doesnt help me
ahhh well i've done it 1000 times and in my opinion it does help
