Hi,
As you said you have acne vulgaris. It is a disease of pilosebaceous units, generally occurs at the age of puberty. If they are in mild form, no treatment is needed. If the lesions are more in numbers and inflammatory in nature, then you may need treatment.
Have patience and reduce anxiety. You may take azithromycine or minocycline in proper dose for long time or till good result is achieved. Apply clindamycine gel on the lesions daily at night. You may cleanse the face with antiseptic face wash like acmed.
I hope you got my answer.
Thanks.
