Hi , everyone wants their acne to be gone faster and start picking on it, pls donot pick on it as treating acne is easier than treating acne scars which are stubborn.
Once someone picks on acne it ruptures with outburst of pus and most of the times comedones/ black heads too, in few cases comedones/black heads stays back to cause recurrence.
