Pimple Popping

One of the worst things you can do to your skin is to pop pimples. Pimple popping may seem as if it is the appropriate thing to do when you've got pimples with a white or black center, but you're actually aggravating the problem. A pimple is actually an infection under the skin's surface. When you pop them you stand the chance of spreading the infection to other areas of your skin; especially when you wipe away the residue of a popped pimple. Pimple popping can also lead to pimple scaring, which creates an additional problem. Some extreme cases of pimple scarring can only be corrected with laser treatments. It is better to use an antibacterial cream instead.
