Is there any way to reduce the redness of a popped pimple?
A doctor has provided 1 answer
Pimple redness: Apply warm soaks. This may initially increase the redness, but will then decrease it. Applying ice for brief periods may also be helful. You can also apply a Hydrocortisone cream. Don't pick! this will increase redness and irritation.
