Pimple left a clear bump with redness around it. how do i make sure it doesn't scar?

Gentle care: Wash with mild soap and water apply a thin coat of antibiotic cream. There is no way to be sure, however. Squeezing markedly increases the chance of a scar happening. If you have scarred before, You may expect to again. See a dermatologist
