Pimples Under The Skin - Alternative Ways To Get Rid Of Them

Pimples under the skin are often the hardest to get rid of, usually after squeezing or popping a regular pimple it starts to heal and go away. But with pimples that are deeply embedded into the skin it is a different story. So how do you really get rid of pimples under the skin?

1. Applying a cloth with hot water on over the pimple can bring up the impurities to the surface and can be popped like a regular pimple. This may take time, don't expect the pimple to form a head straight away. Wait a few hours and see how things go.

2. Add some benzoyl peroxide to the surface of the pimple before you go to bed and overnight the pimple should become ready to be extracted. Benzoyl peroxide works by killing the oxygen in the pore so the bacteria which is living in the pore dies too because it needs oxygen to live. Benzoyl peroxide can help stop breakouts before they start.

3. Leave the pimple alone, it might not be ready to blossom yet. By leaving the pimple to grow it should come to a head, poking or picking at the pimple when there is no pus to come out of the pore will only end in scarring.

4. If these pimples seem to persist you should always visit your doctor, because you could be suffering from cystic acne which is a very strong form of acne not usually treatable by just popping the pimple. But the good news is there is a lot of treatments the doctor can give you to help cure your acne.
