See a dermatologist: What kind of help are you looking for? Here we can only answer questions. But what you need is to see a dermatologist to evaluate your skin and prescribe the appropriate treatment.

Good skin care: Acne comes from bacterial infection. You need to use acne wash and if you only have a few lesions, that will take care of it. But if you have many of them and allthe time, it may time for oral antibiotics and a good dermatologist.
