Over the past few months, acne has been persistently breaking out under my chin and on my cheeks. At first, they were small, so I thought they would be over if I just squeezed them, but as time passed, they developed into pustular acne that hardened inside. Now, I can't even squeeze them, and it just hurts.
I tried to squeeze them out myself, but in the end, I only ended up with deeper scars and wide red marks. I get so stressed every time I look in the mirror that I keep avoiding meeting people, and it’s a continuous vicious cycle where the more I try to cover them up with makeup, the worse the breakouts get.
I can't decide whether I should visit a dermatologist to get a prescription for sebum-controlling medication or if it would be better to consistently receive scar laser treatments and extraction care. I would be really grateful if you could recommend treatment combinations that are effective for both redness and deep scars, or if you could suggest treatments that worked well for my acne-prone skin!
