During a skin purging phase, it is generally not recommended to pop pimples. Skin purging is a temporary reaction that occurs when starting a new skincare product, typically caused by increased cell turnover which can bring impurities to the surface. Popping pimples can lead to further inflammation, scarring, and delays in the healing process. It’s important to let the skin purge naturally and continue with a gentle skincare routine to support the process. If you have concerns, it’s best to consult with a dermatologist for personalized advice.
