How to Extract Pimples using LEROSETT® Spot Treatment & Clearing Mask
How to Safely Extract Pimples with LEROSETT®
👉 The Right Way to Extract Pimples
Contrary to common advice, it’s possible to safely extract pimples without harming your skin—if done correctly. Never attempt to pop a pimple that hasn’t come to a head or shows no visible yellow or white pus, as this can push the infection deeper, causing more inflammation and potential scarring.
👉 Do Not Use Pliers or Heavy Tools on Your Skin
It may sound unbelievable, but some people attempt to extract pimples using pliers or heavy tools. This is extremely dangerous and can cause severe damage, including infections, deep scarring, and permanent harm to your skin.
👉 How to Know When It’s Ready
A pimple is ready for extraction when it has a visible yellow or white head, and gentle pressure causes pus to come out.
👉 Why Choose LEROSETT®

By using LEROSETT®, you can safely manage breakouts and keep your skin healthy and clear—Trust LEROSETT® to help you manage breakouts and keep your skin clear, healthy, and scar-free!
4 Tips for Managing Pimples with LEROSETT®
✅ Stop a Pimple Early
At the first sign of a pimple, before it turns red, spot-treat immediately with LEROSETT® several times within 24 hours. It’s natural zinc and minerals reduce inflammation and prevent the pimple from developing.
✅ Remove an Infected Pimple
If a pimple becomes red, painful, and infected, LEROSETT® spot treatments pull the infection to the surface, speeding up extraction and healing.
✅ Prevent Scars
After extraction, apply LEROSETT® multiple times and leave it on overnight for 24 hours. This absorbs remaining pus and fluid, tightens the skin, and helps close the opening to prevent scabbing and scarring.
✅ Handle With Care
The extraction process can be effective for whiteheads and blackheads if done correctly. If you’re unsure about your skin condition or extraction technique, consult a physician or skincare specialist to ensure your approach is safe and suitable.
Essential Steps for Safely Popping Pimples
👉 Know When Not to Extract
Avoid extracting inflamed, infected, or painful acne lesions. These types of blemishes are best left alone, as attempting to pop them can worsen inflammation, lead to scarring, and cause additional breakouts. Instead, spot-treat with LEROSETT® Spot Treatment & Clay Mask several times daily to reduce swelling and prevent further irritation.
👉 Wash Your Hands
Clean hands prevent introducing bacteria to your skin.
👉 Loosen Pores with Steam
Steam your face for 5-10 minutes to soften pores and make extraction easier.
👉 Use a Sterilized Tool
Always use a sterilized needle or lancet to prick the top of the pimple—never use unclean or improvised tools.
👉 Wrap Your Fingers
Wrap your fingertips with tissues or cotton pads to avoid damaging the skin.
👉 Apply Gentle Pressure
Use a rocking or rolling motion to extract the pimple. Stop if nothing comes out after a few tries to avoid irritation.
👉 Clean the Area Post-Extraction
Wipe away any fluid with a cotton pad and disinfect with alcohol or an astringent.
👉 Apply LEROSETT® Spot Treatment
Use LEROSETT® Spot Treatment & Clay Mask to absorb remaining impurities, tighten pores, and prevent scarring.
👉 Blackheads Need Extraction
Blackheads can only be effectively removed through proper physical extraction using a tool like a loop for blackheads—no sticky tape or glue will truly work. Using LEROSETT® Clay makes blackheads easier to extract and, with 2-3 masks per week, prevents new blackheads from forming.
By following these steps, you can safely manage breakouts while minimizing the risk of scarring or irritation.
What to Do After Extracting a Pimple

These steps help ensure proper healing and reduce the chances of scarring or additional breakouts.
