Answer: Acne treatment Thank you for your question and photographs. It's difficult to evaluate your skin through this type of forum, but from what I can see, it looks like you have combination acne: inflammatory lesions and comedones. There are a variety treatment options such as oral and topical antibiotics, Accutane, light therapy, peels, etc. With Accutane, there are a lot of side effects, so I highly recommend you consult with a board certified dermatologist in your area to have your skin evaluated and to discuss appropriate treatment options that best suit your needs. Take care and good luck.
