Well, let me suggest something, but I hope that you are desperate. I am a licensed esthetician, by the way, (skin care expert). Acne is caused by two things, well maybe three if you count hormones. But those we can't do anything about.
Acne is caused by bacteria and dead skin cells that get clogged in pores that have bacteria in them. Sebum, which is an oily excretion, traps the bacteria and dead skin cells, The pore becomes inflammed and forms a pimple.
Tea tree oil kills bacteria. It is an all natural product that you can get full strength in any health food store or on-line if you search. Origins uses tea tree oil in it's products for treating acne. But it is diluted and smells nice.
And that is the problem with tea tree oil. it smells like turpentine. It has a very strong odor, but it works. SO if you can find your way to get over the smell, and use it at night that should help t alleviate the problem. But remember this, you also need to exfoliate every day, using a buff sponge or an apricot scub. You need to remove the dead skin cells before they get stuck in your pores, (exfoliate) and kill the bacteria (tea tree oil). Here is on other important point. It takes 28 days for your skin to totally renew itself. If you decide to try the tea tree oil, it will help pimples you have now, but there are new pimples forming in the base of your epidermis that it hasn't reached yet. Those have to come to the surface. So what I am saying is - is that you have to give it at least 30 days to give it a chance. It won't work wonders overnight, but it will work.
I hope this helps,and I hope you give it a try.
Good luck to you dear.

it's hard finding a good acne medicine but usually you just have to try some out and see what works best for you.. not every facewash works on every person you know.. what i like to use that is really cheap and its from walgreens it's called Sea Breeze its in a clear bottle and it's blue.. under that it says Sensitive Skin Fresh-Clean Astringent.. gentle formula deep cleans and refreshes without drying .. yea so i'm not saying this will for sure work on your skin.. but it should make it feel refreshed and if you use a white cotton ball you can see it get the dirt off your face.. let me know if it helps! =)
