Hi!
Pimples like structures on the face can be due to acne (clogging of oil glands), folliculitis (infection of hair follicle), perioral dermatitis or due to hepers infection.  Of these acne is the most common cause. And acne and hair follicle infections can cause white pus like thing to come out. However, you should not ***** these things. Discuss this with your doctor. Take care!
