Answer 2

Just leave them alone.  Make sure you wash your face.  Go to the website below for more info. ;)

(It could also be a stye).

Answer 3

They are called milia, if you steam your face and open up your pours it will help when you try to extract them.  To steam your face boil some water and put your face over the water (not too close).  If you can even try a facial.  You can go to a estitician school and get one really cheap.  They can get rid of them for you.  

Answer 4

it might be a white head. You can use tretenoin to make it go away because it is specified to do that. If you want to make it go away at home..I've tried rubbing cucumber(inside-slice it) on it and it works wonders. It probably won't go away in a day, so if you need to go to a party soon, i recommend concealer or some type of non-comedogenic makeup that covers it up.  

Answer 5

They're scars.  More than likely chicken pox scars.  If they're relatively flat and can't be popped that's why.  They're just scars, there's nothing in there to pop.  I have one below my nose.

Answer 6

Answer 7

Its probably just whiteheads.(acne) I would just wash your face for a while until they go away. Lean and clear works really well. i get them all the time i had them for about 2 weeks once.

Answer 12

They sound like whiteheads or "Milia"

What are whiteheads?

A whitehead is a collection of sebum and keratin that plugs the opening of the pilosebaceous unit (skin pore) and imbeds itself in the follicular canal under the skin so that it looks like a raised, white bump. It is also often called as a closed comedone.

What's the cause of whiteheads? Understanding the difference between blackheads and whiteheads

Like blackheads, these are caused by accumulation of hardened sebum or oils, in the pores of the skin. The difference is that in areas where the skin is fine and delicate, the clogged grease is not exposed to air. Oxidization does not take place and does not darken the tips as on case of blackheads. The whiteheads appear in the form of tiny, pearly, white raised spots. They are common on the area just above the cheekbone, nose, or where the skin is fine.

Removing Whiteheads

1. Exfoliate the whitehead prone area 3-4 times a week using facial exfoliators and scrubs. Here is a good SCRUB for you to help you to get rid of whiteheads

2. Use creams containing AHAs (Alpha Hydroxy Fruit acids) like glyco-creams that will clear away any dead skin cells, and helps in unclogging the pores to remove whiteheads.

Dealing with Whiteheads - A word of caution

Never remove a whitehead forcibly; because in case of whiteheads the pore is not open. Forcibly removing a whitehead can damage the skin tissue and spread infection.

More tips on whiteheads

1. Drink lots of water and fresh juices.

2. Eat fresh fruits and vegetables.

3. First thing in the morning - Have a glass of warm water with the juice of lemon. It helps in detoxifying the body.
