The risks are high: the infection will spread (when you activate the content it has only two directions it can get - up and down.If it goes down,it will break the follicle wall.) bacteria will create other pimples.
Or worse,it will remain a very ugly scar.
If however you decided to break a pimple, here’s a guide to minimize (not eliminate)the risk.
How to squeeze a pimple in 10 steps
1.Don’t break a pimple if that peak is not white. If it's just red, do not touch it for anything in the world.
2.Wash your face with warm water (not cold or hot) and with nonalergenic soap which has a close PH to the skin.
3.Take a needle and pass it through the flame of lighter or a match. Thus you will sterilize the needle.
4.Wait until the needle it’s cool, then abrade it with a clean cloth dipped in alcohol.
5.Abrade the pimple with alcohol or other astringent that is used for skin.
6.Position the needle parallel to the skin. Stick it in the top of the pimple and push it parallel to the skin,until it will exit on the other side. Raise the needle and top of the pimple will be removed.
7.If the pimple won’t be purulent then it means that it wasn’t the right time to squeeze it. Wait a half of day or a day to try again.
8.Using a floppy cleansing press down around the pimple. If you want to use only your fingers, wash your hands well and wipe them with alcohol. Do not try to squeeze the pimple between your fingers, as I said earlier the infection will extend down and things will be worse. Push gently until all the pus get out or you see blood begining to come out.
9.Remove the pus with a soft fabric soaked in alcohol or a mild astringent solution.
10. After two or three minutes, you can apply an anti-acneic solution or a non comedogenic cream with aloe vera.
Do not squeeze pimples if you have cystic acne.
