I have this problem on my face for more than three months now.
I have these bumps around the left side right above my mouth.
I tried everything to get rid of them: tea tree, benzoyl peroxide, sallycid acid....
I tried poking through it with a disinfected needle, I believe they become a little smaller but they are still there.
So.. what is this?? I am super desperate right now!!!
I'm not completely sure - looks like it could be milia, or even a skin reaction of some sort - so the best thing to do would be to see a dermatologist.
Meanwhile, you should definitely not be poking them with a needle. They don't look infected at the moment, but even a disinfected needle could introduce bacteria. Your skin looks rather oily - it could be that this is causing the problem. You say you've used tea tree, benzoyl peroxide, salcylic acid - a facewash, cream, mask? This will make a difference. Also, whatever treatment you use, if it is an acne related issue you will need to use the treatment consistently for about 8 weeks normally to see the difference.
