Suffering from acne

Question

Suffering from acne

Asked for Female, 20 Years

I have been suffering from acne for almost 1 year and 8 months. I will turn 21 this year. I have an oily skin type but the pimples started appearing after my nose piercing was spoiled. I am having breakouts on my cheeks mainly and on my forhead and chin. This has lead to low self esteem and self confidence. My skin was clear during my entire teenage but at the end of my teens my skin started breaking out.
