In your opinion, are there times a pimple can be popped?

[Anonymous]

I have done this a bunch of times during my teenaged years and still do once in a while (though now very few times would a pimple appeared but if there is a chance to pop it, I will).

No, I don't feel any regret of doing it. Though back then, a disgusting pus would explode my mirror. I say it was worth it. The skin would heel faster than if I had just waited for X amount of time and go outside in public with that pus.

I lost track of how many times I've popped an ugly one like this (just like in the video, it did that to my mirror too):

Yes, I have done it and still will do it if needed (no regrets)

No, a pimple should never be popped

If I have a pimple I will almost always pop it. I know some people say they should never be popped but if they have pus in them it shows and I don't want others to see that, just like if they have a black head I don't want others to see that either. Also from my experience draining that stuff out of them makes them go down and often disappear pretty much.

Also when they are full of pus etc they get tight and itchy and uncomfortable. I find draining them fixes that.

If it's gone white or yellow, it mjust be popped, nothing else is acceptable

true.. it's disgusting going outside with that

Location is key I swear. If you pop them around certain areas like cheeks or nose you'll probably get more. Me I only wait to pop one when I see pus and keep popping it till a watery liquid comes out then put a pimple cream (I use Clearproof from Mary Kay ) after and by the next morning it'll be gone

I'm sure lot of have people pop pimples but aren't afraid of a
serious infection that could set in

[Asker]

There are ways of popping it and also preventing infections such as washing your hands, putting clean glove, rubbing the area where the pimple it, getting tissues and popping it.

then rinse it afterwards... less... less chances of scarring appearing
