Hi when you pick the pimple, even though you are getting all the 'white stuff' out, you are pushing the bacteria around and you will also push bacteria further into the pore or hair folicle so it reforms from this bacteria.

You should try not to pick them at all, as you will spread the bacteria around your face and cause even more pimples.

I'm not sure what you can do about your scars, firstly stop picking at your pimples to prevent new scars forming.

Is acne a real issue for you? have you tried over the counter remedies? if these over the counter remedies dont work you can visit your doctor who can prescribe treaments such as oral antibiotics, and topical creams and gels, some of these topical treatments can also help with the scars.

I'm sure if you dont need a trip to the doctor, sum1 on here can suggest something for your scars.

Good Luck x
