Hi..
Welcome to HEALTHCARE MAGIC..

I have gone through your query and can understand your concern..

As per your complain as you have comedomes that are the initial small pimples that poliferate to become pimples of different forms..
You should still continue anti-acne treatments like washing your face with salicylic acid containing facewash..
Apply benzoyl peroxide and clindamycin containing gels..
Do cool compresses over the face..
Take multivitamin supplements..
You can also apply creams containing azelic acid..
You can also undergo treatments like Microdermabrasion and chemical peeling..

Hope this information helps..

Thanks and regards.
