Well, last night I discovered a newly formed whitehead right on my cheek. It's not very big, but sticks out a lot. It's almost completely white and feels really dry. I was surprised the thing formed so quickly, since it wasn't there that morning .. or during most of the day. It's been there for about 14 Hours or so; So I'm wondering, would it be better to just pop the thing? Or leave it? I don't want any scars.

heh, I have several whiteheads at any one time. They are really white also, but I never pop them anymore because i'm afraid of scaring.

i pop most of my whiteheads. depends if u scar easily or not

You know, it is possible to pop without scarring. I could not stand to be seen in public with a giant unpopped whitehead on my face! Cysts and blind pimples are one thing...but big and ripe whiteheads are another.
