Does popping blackheads cause "scars"?!


Question:

Does popping blackheads cause "scars"?

Does popping blackheads cause scars? Like when you put your fingers on both sides of it and push so it burst and some white stuff comes out (sorry for the gross description but I had to describe it!).
after i washed my face with soap so it shouldnt get infected.i'm guessing it only gets infected if you let it get dirty,so if i keep it clean i shoudltn get any of those craters shud I(I already have some from chicken pox that i grew up with)


Answers:

No, not to my knowledge. Blackheads are just oily secretions from your skin, they are not your typical pimple or zit, though they are in the acne family. Blackheads form as the oil is secreted from your skin and oxides. What you can do is get a facial with a good aesthetician every month to keep your face clump/bump/oily free. Plus, use a cleanser on your face depending on your skin type.

Hope this answers your question.
