Mild Acne

It appears you most likely have mild acne, which can display a mixture of comedones (blackheads and whiteheads) and scattered papules and pustules. This type of acne will not usually result in scarring.

Treatments

A likely treatment will be a combination of a topical (a cream or lotion applied to the skin) retinoid with benzoyl peroxide and/or a topical antibiotic. These will need to be applied to all the affected skin, not just the 'spots'.

Expert Advice

The best combination of treatments for you will depend on many factors. Your doctor will give you the best advice.
