Pimples. Tried To Pop. User Garnier SOS Pen. Do Away Scars?
hello, I had a pimples , and I tried popping it, it worked a little, and then I brought a cream named Garnier SOS pen. That cream made my pimple go away,but it left with some sort of a scar . That got worse and now it looks like a bindi(what indian people wear on there forehead ). It is so gross. I just wanted to ask how long it would take for the skin to grow back. Thankyou, I hope you understand my concern.
