Clogged pores on forehead
. I started have clogged pores on the sides on my forehead . They turned into cystic acne one by one and then entire clusters on each side . I went to a dermatologist who prescribed me isotretinoin 20mg . I started taking it and the cystic acne has almost gone away within the first month itself . What troubles me is that there are raised clogged pores that have been static . My question is will these ever go away with isotretinoin or do I need chemical or physical exfoliation . Also, if they will go with isotretinoin then how long does it take to go? . There is an attached photo of my forehead
