Don’t pick!
You’ve heard this dozens of times before, but whatever you do, do not pick at your acne spots. To avoid scarring and worsening, don’t pick at any of them,” I know that there is a compulsiveness, but you have to recognize that this is very tempting and instead put on a gentle topical treatment as many times a day as you want, every time you feel like picking.” Finding an alternative behavior is going to make resisting the picking a whole lot easier.
And if you are thinking of buying that extractor tool you saw at the beauty supply store, think again. Oftentimes these tools are not sterile and can lead to infections and scarring.
