I want your opinion on whether or not to get acne treatment?

I ume you are a male from your story. For females, birth control often helps, but that isn't an option if you're a guy. Here's my advice: I would follow your dermatologist's recommendations with the treatments but don't be afraid to speak up and ask for more options if the treatments don't work. There are always more options. If you have a lot of scar tissue, laser treatments are likely your only option. Scar tissue as a rule doesn't just up and leave on its own. The earlier you get a hold of the scar tissue, the easier it will be to get rid of. Now, I'm sure your dermatologist told you this but I'm going to say it too just for good measure. Be kind to your acne! Harsh scrubbing and popping will just make it worse. If you must pop a white head, this is my advice. Do it after a warm shower to soften the skin. Pop it with clean hands, and stop squeezing after the pus comes out. If you see blood STOP squeezing! And don't keep coming back to it to see if you can get more out of it. Every time you disturb a scab or sore, the body has to lay down new tissue to heal it and that leads to scarring. That's my two cents!
