How to remove my acne / pimples?

Quite a few options: For treatment of acne, over-the-counter benzoyl peroxide gel/cream is quite helpful. If desired, a doctor can add an antibiotic gel/cream such as Cleocin (clindamycin phosphate) gel. If more help is needed, prescription retinoids such as Retin-A or Differin gel can be used instead of benzoyl peroxide. Oral antibiotics such as tetracycline can be used also. If acne is quite severe, a dermatologist might use oral Accutane.

Manage it: Topical benzoyl peroxide and/or retinoic acid as you can tolerate. If you are not clear in two weeks, get with your personal physician who will add prescription-strength Rx. Your acne is basically unrelated to sexuality, diet, hygiene, fitness and anything else that's under your control. You must care for it until it remits on its own. It is not pleasant but you're a man now and must care for it.
