Many people say that small pimples should not be squeezed by hand, but let them be. Experts in Guangzhou on pimple removal believe that it's not absolutely true that small pimples should not be squeezed, but rather they need to be squeezed scientifically. If pimples are not squeezed correctly, scars can be left on the face. So what exactly is the correct way to squeeze pimples?
Below, experts from Guangzhou will tell you the safe rules for squeezing pimples without leaving traces.
1. Before squeezing pimples, your hands should be cleaned thoroughly. It’s best to use an exfoliating mask to soften the keratin layer so that the pimples are easier to squeeze out. However, if there are inflamed pimples, remember not to rub them while exfoliating. After washing your face, don't apply anything on the area where you plan to squeeze the pimple, especially avoid using astringent toner, as it would make the pores contract and make it harder to squeeze out the pimple.
As for the pimple extractor tool, it should be disinfected with alcohol or toner first. When using the extractor to squeeze pimples, the contact area is smaller, which won’t affect or harm the normal skin around the pimple. However, when starting to use it, it may feel clumsy, and some people forget to clean the extractor after use, causing pus squeezed out from one pimple to spread to another, similar to catching an infectious disease.
2. Many friends find that not all blackheads can be removed when squeezing pimples. In fact, after removing the blackheads, you'll notice many of them haven't been completely pulled out. At this point, just take out the eyebrow tweezers, use the corner part to pull out the slightly protruding blackheads, and the blackheads will be truly completely removed. However, if you find that the blackheads and pimples have reached the squeezable stage but still cannot be easily squeezed out, it is recommended not to use too much force or be too "violent". Instead, apply medicine obediently!
3. Properly treat the wound. Remember, after squeezing pimples, to avoid inflammation, you can wash the wound with physiological saline, or use a cotton pad soaked in cold, gentle toner to cover the wound. This not only reduces inflammation but also helps reduce redness and swelling after squeezing.
4. Shrink enlarged pores. The next step is crucial. To soothe and calm the skin wounds after squeezing pimples, you can use a cream containing calendula components. Calendula has repairing and soothing effects on wounds. You can apply a thick layer on the squeezed pimple areas. Don't be stingy with the amount used. Combined with the previous step, persist for three days, and the pores will effectively shrink.
5. Maintain facial cleanliness. Irregular living habits are also one of the reasons for pimples. To maintain facial cleanliness, pay attention to daily facial cleaning for the next two weeks. Use gentle skincare products and try not to wear makeup. Keep normal dietary and sleeping habits.
Guangzhou experts kindly remind that pimples should be squeezed with the correct method to ensure that they are removed without leaving scars.
