After popping a pimple, it’s important to clean the area to prevent infection and promote healing. You can clean a popped pimple with a mild cleanser containing salicylic acid or benzoyl peroxide to help reduce bacteria and inflammation. Gently cleanse the area with a clean cotton pad or soft cloth and then apply a spot treatment with benzoyl peroxide or tea tree oil to help with healing and preventing further breakouts.
