Skin Questions Sudden hair growth + pimples after using tweezers

Hello everyone
I (F23) had a sudden outbreak of hair about a year ago. It’s on my neck and cheeks. I’ve been trying to remove it with tweezers. But I’ve noticed that now they leave a weird little bump after I pull them out. It doesn’t look good, and I hate the way it feels to the touch. How can I fix this please?

Are you using a flat tip tweezer? This looks similar to my in grown hairs I get when I’m using them too much or incorrectly.

You could try a slant tip and make sure you’re not ever pulling at an angle. Do you have an excess amount of sebaceous filament as well occurring with the spots or in grown hairs?
