Thanks for choosing HCM,
You are having Acne vulgaris which usually start at puberty but extend upto 25-30 years. Kindly do not squeeze your pimples it may lead to scar formation on your face.take oral doxycycline 100 mg for 1month initially along with local application of ISOTRETINOIN gel at night and clindamycin lotion twice daily .let me know the result after 2weeks. Bye
