Answer 3

with the right care pimples don't take long to go away so every morning and evening use hot hot water then apply clearasil daily facial scrub (available in most toiletry stores) wait, then with hot water take it off, also before you go to bed use sudocrem and apply in generously to the pimple b4 you no it it will have dissapeared!

you can try popping it too but that hurts

hope this helps = )

Answer 4

Well, if it has a head on it, and i mean if you can SEE the pus in it, then take a needle, put alcohol on the needle and the pimple, and barely poke the top of the pimple with it, then squeeze the pus out. Wash your face, and apply some kind of pimple cream to the top of it. Do this right before you go to bed, and in the morning it should have shrinked almost down to nothing, and in a few days it should be gone. If it doesn't have a head on it yet, then don't pop it!! Just be patient, you can try steaming your face every night to encourage the head to rise up in it. Good luck!

Answer 5

If you pop it, it goes away inside of a week. If left alone, you're looking at 2 weeks at least.

Answer 6

just need points sorry

Answer 7

popping it does make it go down faster but it can leave undesirable craters in your face for the rest of your life if you continue to do this.
