Having Big Red Swollen And Itching Pimple On Face. Prescribed Deriva MS Gel. Applying Rose Water. Guide?

hello i am Manjinder Singh ,22 years old ,and i have big red swollen , hurting and itching pimples on my face (on the left and right cheek ) and some pimples extend below to my chin and one or two near above my cheeks near the eye portion, I visited Apollo Hospital for consulting a Dermatologist ,and he prescribed me Deriva MS gel,Clindac A ,Isotroin-20 and a fash foam facewash,i have been using these medicines from the past 6 days but i see no results on my face and the doctor told me that it would take 3 months session to entirely get rid of the Acne or Pimples.
I drink about 8-10 glasses of water daily from the past 4-5 months but i see no results on my face,before visiting Apollo i also visted Kaya Skin Care but nothing worked,i would also apply Rosewater and Betnovate N before going to bed but nothing stopped them from coming again.

Dermatologist 's  Response
Hello,
Welcome to healthcare magic

The latest dermatologist you visited has given you perfect treatment. It will take some time for improvement, so please have some patience.

I donot know who had recommended you to apply Betnovate N for pimples. It is really bad for pimples and your severe acne may be due to this, if you have been using it for long. Stop it as soon as possible. I hope you have mentioned about Betnovate N to your doctor, if not inform him.

Hope this helped
Take care
