Since they’re so deep, blind pimples often have a little-to-no raised bump (hence blind), but they’re always tender and sore, so you’ll know if you have one lurking somewhere. But if you’re dealing with a blind pimple (or, uh, five) and are especially prone to them, I chatted with three board-certified dermatologists- Geeta Yadav, MD Neal Schultz, MD and Karan Lal, DO-plus celebrity aesthetician Renée Rouleau to break down what exactly a blind pimple is in detail, how long it takes to go away, and what products and treatments can help get rid of it faster.īlind pimples are inflamed cysts that develop beneath your skin and have no connection to the surface of your skin. Refresher: A blind pimple is a type of cystic acne that lives deep beneath your skin and won’t go away with just your typical acne skincare routine.
But blind pimples? Uh, they're a whole different story. And even though all acne breakouts suck, at least a classic whitehead has options (hi, spot treatments and pimple patches), while a blackhead is barely visible from a few inches away. You know, the kind of cystic acne that nobody else can really see, but is so deep, throbbing, and tender that it’s enough to make you want to cancel all plans and bathe in ice. Recently, I was minding my own business before a date when a very cute, very painful blind pimple embedded itself on my chin.
