Other than washing your face a lot :

Ice down the acne before bed, by morning it should be noticeably less swollen. Works best on larger pimples that have not yet formed a head.

Put toothpaste on your pimple before you go to bed, should help reduce swelling overnight. Make sure it is the paste not the gel. One of the most popular acne home remedies.

Tea Tree oil can also be applied directly to infected pores.

Apply fresh lemon juice on the affected area overnight. Wash off with warm water next morning.

Drink plenty of water.

Pimple Removal :

Prepare for a small surgical pimple removing procedure. You'll need a small sewing needle, a bottle of alcohol, some gauze (or a small band-aid), and some warm water. Some people think you'll need to run a needle through a flame. This isn't Dr. Quinn Medicine woman. Rubbing alcohol will do.
Wash your face and hands before attempting to pop the pimple. Washing your face and hands ensures that all makeup, oils, germs and bacteria are no longer near the pimple you're about to burst. Also, dip a majority of the needle in the alcohol, and for safe measure apply some of that alcohol to your fingers and the pimple--dabbing with some gauze to dry the area.
Prick the white part of the pimple very lightly with the tip of your needle. Once you've done that, put two small squares of gauze on either side of the pimple and apply pressure with two fingers to ensure that the remaining puss is squeezed out of the pore, retaining pressure until clear liquid appears. When clear liquid or blood appears, you'll know the pimple is gone.
Wipe the pimple clean with an alcohol soaked gauze pad. It'll sting a little, but that's a good thing. The alcohol will kill most of the bacteria in and around the wound, helping you to avoid an infected pimple. If you wish, you can put a small, sterile bandaid on the area or cover it with an antibacterial concealer

Hot water on a wash cloth,
THEN, put it on your face,
then leave it and do it a couple of times witht he warm water.
This opens the pore.
Mash the zit with your washcloth and NOT your fingers.

When their is white or yellow in a zit, that is poison, and it needs to come out.

AND NEVER SCRUB your face.
All you need to do is gently lather the oil off of your face .
If you scrub, you will always have red acne scars.

Do what I said. Then use Seabreeze if you have it.
KEEP YOUR FINGERS OFF YOUR FACE--ALWAYS!!!!!
especially where there is a ZIT!!

Instead of squeezing it which can lead to scaring, I would put a hot wash cloth on it. After it pops just wash your face with mild soap and water..that's all folks!

you may try to pop it, if you are suscessful use a antibotic.keep area clean overnight use a small bandaid on area if you can. if it is really bothering you go to a clinic.

get a warm towel and put it over it for a minute. pop it then put some toothpaste on it then you shouldnt have any scars.

Aspirin contains Beta hydroxy acid which is a powerful defoliant ,so you can crush 1to 2 Aspirin tablets mix with a little water and apply on pimples for 15 minutes and wash. More such solutions at http://solutionsforpimples.blogspot.com/
