a white head is gross

leave it alone

Pop it if you want it gone
Leave it alone if you don't want a scar for the next 5 years of your life

Technically, it is better to leave alone since popping will expose the open area to bacteria and risk infection. But lets face it, there's nothing better than popping a big zit on the bathroom mirror and leaving the pus there.

Leave it alone

leave it along because it will leave a mark. But if you have to, pop it!

you can pop a pimple especially becuase they are SOOOO annoying but use to Q-tips intead of your fingers, that way you wont scar.

i say dont pop it because they will usually hurt and look worse

they can turn into an ugly scab or even get infected!

just leave it, use some anti pimple cream or whatever

leave it alone.bcoz if u pop up it will spread in all space in ur face.

its more fun popping them but its better to leave them alone however i thing just about every one has to pop some times

When it first appears it's best to leave it alone. Picking and squeezing at them can cause acne scars. But, if you get a white head... it's best to get all the puss out and then leave it alone to heal.

Do not pop a pimple.

Pimples can indicate the presence of acne, a chronic skin disease. If you have recurring pimples, talk to a dermatologist about acne medication. Your dermatologist may prescribe antibiotics, certain brands of birth control pills, or even Accutane for severe acne.

If you're desperate (you get an unsightly blemish two days before your wedding, perhaps), consult a dermatologist about receiving a shot of cortisone to eliminate a pimple

It may seem like popping a pimple is an easier solution that without a doubt takes way less time, but it could leave behind ugly scars that makes it totally useless to pop them.

Even though trying a whole bunch of acne medications && facial scrubs can be
-Expensive
-Time consuming
-Useless
-Unhelpful
it is still way better && worth all your time. There is even doctors you can go to to find pimple solutions.

&& Another great way to find some good treatments for acne is to buy some teen vouge magazines [[if you're a girl]] or just type in "Acne" or "Acne Solutions" or "Facial scrubs" In the search bar for Yahoo Answers.

XX?

Just leave it alone bro i had one on my face once and poped it it then got infected and grew larger and lasted on my face for about 4 months the little scar mark is still their so best advice just leave it bro

Leave it. Chances are if you pop it it could turn septic.

its actually better to leave it alone. but they're nasty so pop it! lol

Leave it alone. I have a habit of popping my zits and one of them got infected when I popped it and turned into a boil. It was huge and nasty!!!! Please don't pop them

Leave it alone. If it is really bothering you go to a dermatologist and the doctor there can do something with it. If you pop it, that can get infected.

If it looks like it's still not ready to pop yet, don't pop it. You will leave a scar, or what's called a pock mark & they don't go away easily. It will also get the pimple site infected & it will get worse. I usually use a facial mask to reduce the blemish & to hopefuly reduce the pimple & avoid scarring when it does pop. If the pimple looks like it's ready to pop, you can help it pop, but please be clean & cautious so it doesn't get infected & leaves a "hole" & your face won't look like the surface of the moon. The WikiHow site gives simple steps on how to do this. Here's the link & you can also check out other sections on pimples. Hope this helps!

Leave it alone. Breaking it could leave a scar or mark. When its time is up it will break itself and you should clean off the mucus. That way it is matured and will less likely to leave a mark if you take care of it well. Immature pimples also have active mucus that can spread to other places so it is recommended to leave it as it is. Just put some aloe vera (preferably fresh ones from the plant itself) every day and it will heal quickly and will not leave any signs. Also take plenty of water, sleep early and don't receive too much sunlight or eat too much fried foods or the heat will make them bigger and more will grow.
