I'm a 19 year old male.

The dermatologist rated my acne on a scale of 1-8 as 1.5. Anyway the doctor prescribed me the following;
- Wash my face with AC Benzac Wash 5% BP in the morning and night
- Minomycin 50mg 1 tablet in the morning and 1 at night
- Differin - apply a thin layer at night before bed.
I've been on this treatment for 5 and a half weeks now.

Basically:
My face looked a bit nicer after a few days of using this regime.
My face was looking MUCH MUCH BETTER until 1 week ago. 1 week ago I had suddenly started getting all these whiteheaRAB around my cheeks and chin area. Along with the pigmented scars from some of the previous pimples my face looks very bad - i'd rate it much more worst than i previously had.

How long will it take for all these whiteheaRAB and stuff to dissappear? Why am I getting so many of them now, my skin is much worst than it was before starting the treatment? Could it have been the fast food that I decided to eat 1 week ago that did the trick (ive been trying to stay off from fast food and was going well until 1 week ago when I was hungry at work so ate some fast food)?

thanks for reading my problems..
 
why don't you try proactive??? you don't need to go to the doctor and its supposed to be one one the most effective out there
 
Basically when you take anti-biotics you are killing all the GOOD and BAD bacteria in your body. Try to eat some yogurt or take a probiotics suppliment. Have you ever tried sulfur soap? That helped me a lot.
 
Well, is this a normal thing to happen at 6 weeks into the treatment? I mean my skin was looking good until 1.5 weeks ago. I had the initial breakout(s) at the start, then it eased up until 1.5 weeks ago when I started horrendously breaking out. Is this mean't to happen at 6 weeks and if so, how long will it take before all these new breakouts start clearing up? thanks
