I would stop what you’re doing and talk with a clinician first. Pursue a Telemedicine visit on HealthTap if you have no primary care physician. Betamethasone should not be used on the face without clear indication. Acne treatment takes weeks before clear effects, it’s best that you start on the right path early, rather than messing around for weeks on your own.
