Now it's spreading to my chin and cheeks, and it's driving me crazy.

Big pimples started popping up one by one on my face, and now they've spread to my chin and cheeks, driving me crazy. If I touch them, they get bigger and leave red marks, so I just sigh every time I look in the mirror.

I think I'll eventually have to go to a dermatologist for treatment, and I'm curious what kind of treatment everyone else started with.

Do people usually start with extractions and anti-inflammatory injections, or would it be better to go straight into scaling or laser treatments like Agnes?

Also, for those of you who have been prescribed acne medication like Isotretinoin, I would appreciate it if you could let me know how many weeks it took for the breakouts to completely clear up.

If you have any experiences regarding the time it took for redness or marks to fade after taking medication or receiving a procedure, please feel free to share them in the comments.
