Nasty.... I was hoping nobody was going to show this...

What I would do is google it, I know not the best. Here's the first thing I found on google, if it doesn't work try looking up something else.

aaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAGHGHHGH


Try running some hot water in the bathroom sink with a towel over your head to trap the steam to open your pores then try to pop them? Don't force it if they're not ready to pop though cause you could damage the skin around it.

Most of the advice in that link isn't very good (sorry, no offense meant!). Almost all of it is super irritating to the skin. Just for starters, steaming can lead to dehydration of the skin (which results in oil overproduction) and broken capillaries. There's really no benefit to it.

I'd recommend figuring out the cause of your whiteheads, especially if they are all over your face. Is it stress? Is it a reaction to a product you're using? Etcetera. If you can, go and see a dermatologist, or even a GP. Minimizing their appearance rates will go a long way.

Besides that, first off, don't pick at it or pop it. It will only aggravate the spot and most likely cause scarring. Keep your hands off your face (and keep your hands washed if you're the type that really wants to pick at them). Be gentle. If it pops on its own, treat it as an open wound, because that's what it literally is. Next, do you have any spot treatments that you can use, such as benzoyl peroxide? Salicylic acid treatments are another good option. Other treatments that may work are clay masks, neem oil, or diluted tea tree oil (make sure you first patch test anything new before attacking pimples with it, and do your own research). Covering pimples up with a hydrocolloid bandage can also help drain it and keep the area clean, not to mention prevent you from picking at it.

It's fine, lol, that's why I said it's not best.

Do what he does.

This is aesthetically pleasing for some reason.

Pop it
Don't listen to people who say it makes it worse, popping it lets the pus out - dermatologists frequently pop their patients spots

look at chinese face maps! they show what your acne might correlate to. they're not always correct (just guidelines) but they've often helped me identify why i've got acne in specific areas (lack of sleep etc.)

is it a whitehead, or is it a pimple with a white pus in the center?


with a pimple with pus just put a hot wet towel on the area for a little, it pushes everything to the top of the pimple and pop it lol. thats what i always did. also wash ur pillow case really frequently that helps a lot.
