My face still covered with whiteheads after CO2 laser in Nov of 2013. Any suggestions?

Frizzy
Face puffed up until my eyes were slits 72 hours after procedure. Swelling went down. Very red for almost 5 months afterward. Redness went away leaving a rash along jawline which lasted until June of 2014. Rash went away but since June have had acne. Now only whiteheads. My face is covered in them. When my face is soapy it feels like fine grain sandpaper. There are also half a dozen eruptions on skin surface at any given time. Have tried many OTC products. Any suggestions?
