Once the Cortisone injection has been administered you will usually see results within the first few hours resulting in the reduction of swelling and redness.

One of the more serious consequences of injecting too much cortisone into the lesion is skin atrophy. This is where the skin actually shrinks, leaving a superficial indentation where the blemish had been. It often heals itself, but if the atrophy seems permanent, there are procedures that can be done to elevate the atrophied area so that it is even with the surrounding skin. Another side-effect is a lightening of skin color at the site of the injection.Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-20396927.post-83493014341655637552010-06-06T17:28:31.024+05:302010-06-06T17:28:31.024+05:30It is advisable to steam the face first and once t...It is advisable to steam the face first and once the pores are all opened up..go ahead and pop as many as possible.

Grab a tissue and gently pop the pimple from the sides. This shouldn't hurt.<br />If it hurts, stop immediately. If you popped the pimple, don't keep squeezing it, and definitely stop<br />if you see blood. If you force the pimple, you'll definitely get a scar.<br /><br />2. Apply some benzoyl peroxide to the pimple to kill the bacteria that causes acne. This will help prevent it from spreading. Apply once or twice that day, and the next morning the pimple should have healed very well.<br /><br />If you couldn't gently pop the pimple, just apply benzoyl peroxide to the pimple twice a day until it's gone.Anonymousnoreply@blogger.com
