1.) You should only pop white heads, they’re safer to pop. Don’t pop a cyst or boil, those can scar you’re pretty face.
2.) Wash your hands and face, then swab spot the pimple with rubbing alcohol.
3.) Dip a clean needle in the alcohol and GENTLY pierce the white head. Try not to draw blood.
4.) Squeeze gently from either side using clean hands or Q-tips. If it doesn’t come out easy, STOP squeezing, it could cause a scar.
5.) Cover with a small band-aid to prevent scabbing.

- I would recommend doing this at night. You don’t wanna walk around all day with a purple circle band-aid in your face… unless you absolutely want to do that.
