Hi,

I’m 15 years old. And for the past two years I’ve been having pimple outbreaks on my nose. These pimples tend to get very big and often have pus inside them. I don’t squeeze them however occasionally they do burst themselves maybe when I’m washing my face. They then leave scars on my nose. Only my nose is affected, the rest of my face do not have pimples. There’s alot of scars on my nose and it is really a put down. It is hard not to be hurt by the comments made by people always. There hasn’t been a pimple outbreak for quite some time already and I’m wondering is there anything I can do to get rid of these scars? I’m living in Singapore and I’m wondering is there any lotion I can use? Or are there any other methods? Answers and advices are greatly appreciated.

This year I’ve had problems with zits and such, and I was wondering if there was a way to get rid of scars from picking zits and pimples.
Is there a creme or lotion I can put on them?
Or will it go away by itself?

When I get stressed, I pick at my pimples/blackheads. It is something that happens so naturally that I do not even realize I am doing it until after I finish, and my skin hurts from all of the prodding. Please help. I have been doing this for years, and I have a few scars, but I want to stop competely. Does anyone else do this, and do you know what I should do to stop?

Ok, answer this question:
Are the scars from just HAVING the pimples, or from PICKING the pimples? But I NEVER pick my pimples, but I have a lot. Will I get scars just from having them?

I’m forming pimples above my lips, how do you get rid of it? How do you get rid of the pimples that are already starting to form? There’s two bumps and I don’t want to wait till its ready to pop. Whenever I pop my pimples it turns into scars. How do I get rid of these pimples in a day or two without scarring?

I’ve had some really bad acne on shoulder blades and running down my back. I scrub with a brush on my back and its really smooth out. I never picked my back so there isn’t any scarring but pimples are still showing up. Are there any suggestions for getting rid of pimples on the back and fixing scars on the skin from old pimples?

Thanks.

Pimples are the bane of youngsters and they would be very happy to have some homemade pimple treatments so that they can manage their own pimple treatment instead of running to dermatologists every time they get one. This is a time in the life of an adolescent when they are very sensitive to their appearance and would like to look their best always.

Every adolescent should realize that this is just a period in their lives when they have to deal with this problem and once they reach adulthood this will be a thing of the past. The first thing to help with pimples is to get to know what causes them. Pimples which are a milder form of acne are caused by the blocking of pores by the oil secreted from the skin. If neglected these pimples can become more widespread and leave behind scars even after they have healed. So the best way to avoid this is to start your homemade pimple treatments and control more from forming.

Once you know the causes of pimples you should start working on a daily routine to take care of your skin so that you can avoid getting pimples. To remove the excess oil on your skin make sure that you keep your face clean and wash it with a mild antiseptic soap at least twice a day. This helps in preventing the bacteria from forming and causing infection like the pustules that form in pimples. If there are too many pimples then you should also use a antibacterial lotion after washing your face, but once the pimples have dried there is no need to continue with this lotion any longer. However make sure that the cleansing routine is strictly followed.

Homemade pimple treatments are not just for external use, the “insides” should also be taken care of and a detoxifying done for yourself regularly. A drink of lime juice in warm water with a spoon of honey first thing in the mornings will work wonders for your skin. Apart from this what one needs for a clear skin is a well balanced diet with enough nutrients in it. For those who are prone to pimples it is best to avoid all oily foods and eat more of fruits and vegetables. Water is a wonderful detoxifying agent and will help in flushing out the toxins from your body. So try and make sure that at least two liters of water is consumed by you on a daily basis. This is bound to keep your skin clear and rid you of the problem of pimples during your adolescent years. This problem will disappear on its own in any case after a few years and you need not worry about it any longer.
