Resisting the urge to pop pimples is generally recommended as popping them can lead to scarring, inflammation, and potential infection. In most cases, pimples will heal better and faster if left alone to run their course naturally. Gentle cleansing, using over-the-counter acne treatments, and maintaining a consistent skincare routine can help promote healing without the need to pop the pimples.
