There are a few strategies you can try to help shrink a pimple quickly:
– Apply ice: Wrap an ice cube in a cloth and place it on the pimple for a few minutes to reduce inflammation.
– Use over-the-counter acne treatments: Products containing ingredients like benzoyl peroxide or salicylic acid can help dry out the pimple.
– Spot treat with tea tree oil: Applying a small amount of diluted tea tree oil to the pimple may help reduce inflammation and kill bacteria.
– Avoid picking or squeezing: This can worsen the pimple and lead to scarring.
If the pimple persists or becomes painful, it’s best to consult a dermatologist for further evaluation and treatment.
