Picking and pushing at pimples can cause acne scarring in Chico.Incorrect pressure applied to a pimple can force it to rupture, and the bacteria, to spill into the dermis. The dermal layer is supposed to be free from harmful microbes so when it becomes contaminated, WBCs rush to the site of infection, pushing collagen and elastin out of the way. This displacement of protein fibers creates scarring in the form of indented acne scars.
