Hi,

I have these small bumps all over my face and I really want to know how to get rid of them!

I saw my GP and she prescribed me tetracycline, which i just finished, and Benzaclin. I've been using the benzaclin for a couple of weeks already but i haven't been seeing that many changes...

Please help.... rolleyes.gif

I'd try a retinoid. Those are commonly used for closed comedones. Just be forewarned that they take a few months to work, they can cause purging, and you have to take it slow with those medications and really follow the directions.
