Make no mistake, squeezing pimples on the face can potentially harm our body health, Bela. Moreover, if tercawatanya exist in dangerous areas, namely "Triangle of Death" or "Danger Triangle of The Face". The range of the area covers the upper lip to the upper part of the nose between the eyebrows. Why dangerous?
At the bottom of the area's skin surface, there are cavernous sinuses, the nerve cavity and the main blood vessels that carry blood to the brain. When exposed to acne infection, the sign can spread to the blood vessels and can enter the nerve center. If the skin area was exposed to acne, shorten the distance to the sinus cavernous, "said dermatologist from Los Angeles, Sandra Lee on Allure," If the infection has spread , most likely will experience a stroke or blindness. Worse yet, could have cavernous sinus thrombosis to death. "
Spooky, ya Bela? However, according to a woman known as Dr. Pimple Popper, the triangle of death is not too dangerous because of the antibiotics.
Dermatologist from Washington D.C., Rebecca Kazin agreed to Lee's opinion. "If a large acne is disturbing, it's good to visit a dermatologist or a doctor to deal with this skin problem, it's easy to handle this infection with antibiotics (oral)," he said, "The possibility of this incident is very rare, and I've never seen this during work."

Instead of squeezing it for being disturbed, it is advisable not to touch it in order to avoid the spread of infection in the sinus cavernous cavity, as well as the potential for acne scars afterwards.
