get to the derm.

yes I went to the derm already, but he just gave me antibiotics and it didn't work that much:(

Looks pretty mild to me.

Antibiotics take time to work, just like any other medication. I'd recommend a topical retinoid though, as it is something you can maintain in your routine without having to worry about the acne bacteria developing a tolerance.

Personally I use a generic form of tretinoin, although they do come in branded forms like Retin-A etc. However you should probably just listen to your dermatologist and have him determine the proper course of action for yourself.
