Johnson's : Neosporin + Pain Relief

-quickens the process of big, red, inflamed acne and aids in the prevention of infection. -a must have item for popped pimples

If your a picker, or you just can't help but to pop that ugly zit, this is for you!! I have good skin. I don't breakout, I don't have a ton of pimples, and my skin is literally as soft as a baby's bottom. But occasionally, I do get the odd pimple on my face. And when I do.. OH DAMN! I pick at it! I used to have clear, even skin, but now it's covered in scars! Neosporin sped up the healing time of the picked areas, and after ONE NIGHT I saw the minor scars disappear completely. It never broke me out at all and it was very moisturizing. Try it. You'll be amazed! :)

i was reading threw here and it seemed alot of people had good thing to say about using this. so I desided i try it since i have the worst time with over the counter thing working. I would use it every night before i'd go to bed on zit that i hadnt popped yet and it really didnt seem to do anyhting for them lest not that i could tell. so i gave up with that and popped them and started using them on zit that i had pop. I'm a bad picker so the faster i could get them to heal the better. and it did a really good job it keep be from picking at them as much and it help heal them faster. i would deff try this if ur a picker.

i used to get small pimples all over my face, and now i get only a few pimple, which is nice, all except they are much larger and much redder! my friend suggested this to me, to put a dab of neosporin/polysporin on the pimple and cover it with a little "dot" band-aid. it works perfectly! it takes the redness and also the size of the pimple down a few notches. i use this if i get a pimple when i have an event coming up. it works really fast!

This works better than anything else that I use. I don't like BP because it irritates my extremely dry sensitive skin, even when I use it with a moisturizer. This dramatically reduces swelling when I apply it to a cyst within a few hours(I typically apply before bed). It speeds the healing process up, and I never have to pop the cyst, so there is no chance of scarring. It also works great on popped pimples and cysts to heal the aftermath. I typically just use the generic because it works as well as name brand triple anti-biotics. It does look disgusting, so you can't really wear it out in public.

This stuff is amazing! ive tried to get rid of my acne for a year. My acne was predominantly on my cheeks. I think the reason why it worked so well in my case is because i am a picker. We all know that picking gives you scars and spreads bacteria. So i learnt the appropriate way to pick a pimple (sterilised needle etc) and when i was done i'd put a thin layer of neosporin over the top. I've used this for one month at night and now i rarely get breakouts. Any i do get (probably because of makeup) heal quickly with no scarring. If you couple neosporin with the correct exfoliating/cleansing techniques you will be targeting two of the causes of acne (bacteria and clogged pores) I cleanse with a gentle cleanser. Exfoliate every 2-3 days with St Ives apricot scrub using the olay cleansing system (cheapy version of clarasonic) and i eat well and have cut out dairy and sugar. I'm now going to be doing a series of chemical peels to clear up any left over scars and PIH. Neosporin heals soo quickly and I'm a poor healer! This is a Godsend!

Unfortunately, I am one of the unlucky people who are sensitive to the ingredient in neosporin, and I developed a big red area when I applied it to my popped pimple :( But it did help to heal it.

I haven't used neosporin on unpopped pimples, but it's great to use it to heal the popped ones. Whenever I have a pimple that has come to a whitehead, I steam my face and then use two q-tips to pop the zit. Then I use an alcohol swab to quickly clean the popped pimple, only for like 3 seconds. Then I dab neosporin on another q-tip, and apply it on the wound. Put a bandaid over that, and the next morning, it's healed and basically gone. I only do this before I go to bed or I'm lounging around the house.

I do not get many spots but when i do they are severe and leave scars. I noticed a very bad spot that i knew would leave a pit so i started to put nesporin on it. the spot came to a head but i did not pop it. i kept putting nesporin on. in two to three days the spot dried up and i was absaloutly amazed that the spot went down and never left a scar. for those who cant help picking..please stop because that is the main cause of scaring let your body heal it and also put nesporin on it. I have never seen a medication that works like this. I use mama lotion at night and after 20 mins i apply the nesporin on the individual spot. The mama lotion loosens the dead skin cells so the nesporin can work better.

for me when i pop a pimple i apply a good amount of neosporin on it and usually by the next day the pimple is reduced greatly and pretty much healed..just yesterday i had a pimple on my cheek that hurt alot and Benzoyl was not doing anything, i panicked and tried to pop it all i did was open it and just a lil bit of blood came out but nothing else, after that it got redder and hurt even more i decided to put neosporin to prevent infection, while i had it on i felt that area got ticklish, and after a few hours i go to the bathroom and after days of just a red spot a head had FINALLY appeared, i pop it and, everythig came out it was like an explosion all that was in there finally was out it was a big relief, i think neosporin actually pushes whatever is in there to the surface so it helps get rid of it, after i cleaned it and applied more neosporin and it is still helping greatly on the healing..
