You know those little pimples with no head that you say one squeeze wont hurt? That leads to a full-on open wound? That happened to me. Right on my forehead. It scabbed after neosporin 6 hours then overnight, but I put a hot towel and it removed the scab and now is back to stage one. I know speed is not always good for acne, but how can I heal it relitively fast without leaving a red mark? This happened to me like 2 months ago and the mark from that one recently faded completely. At least I know never to do it again...

Squeezing it led to it scabbing, or applying a hot towel over it?

I think you will be fine

The squeezing caused the original scabbing, and I read put a hot towel on it and the scab came off. It's completely flat though, it looks like a tiny blister but really red rash like border. It's right on my forehead which is why it's bothering me lol.

Zinc cream on a bandaid, leave it on overnight. Best you can do, it'll take time

do not touch it in any way again and put neospirin on it every night after washing your face :)
