im pretty far into my differin treatment (id say 6 wks) so far my skin isnt looking great...just more red marks from pimples that are coming out... is it normal to see whiteheads/balkheads become inflammed and turn a little red??? does this mean they are trying to work themselves out as the skin cells are shedding off?

I've always thought that the redness is the bacteria working its way through your skin and out of your pore, but I could be wrong.
