Acne is the most common skin problems experienced, especially in adolescents. When the spots that appear on the face, hands it felt 'itchy' want to push. Though squeeze pimples can make the condition worse.
According to the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention (CDC) squeeze acne can cause scarring. If your acne, keep hands out of your face because the oil and dirt on the hands can make acne worse.
In addition to scarring, following some of the risks that lurk when you carelessly squeeze pimples, as reported by LIVESTRONG on Saturday (05/11/2013):
1. Irritation
Squeezing and squeezing will only aggravate acne. In fact, if there is any improvement then it is only temporary, according to Georgetown University's Health Education Services.
As soon as squeezed pimples will reappear, often with redness or irritation. Even if you squeeze pimples and appear less obvious, irritated and inflamed scars are longer than the acne itself.
2. Bleeding
Squeezing pimples can lead to bleeding surfaces. When a bloody acne, clogged pores will open and vulnerable to leave bacteria on the skin.
White blood cells to fight bacteria then attack, the pores will again clog but inflamed. With the advent of swelling and dried blood, pimples may appear even more noticeable than before.
3. Infection
According Kidshealth, squeeze acne making bacteria deeper into the skin. The entry of these bacteria can cause infections in the pores are clogged, making the area around the pimple more reddened and inflamed.
4. Scar tissue and scar
The CDC warned that the squeeze acne can cause scarring. Additionally, injuring surrounding tissue that can clog pores permanently damage the skin and leave a scar. This is especially true on the problematic acne lesions, such as papules, pustules, nodules and cysts, all of which can be very painful.
