    Put it this way. I'm 19, wash my face twice a day etc, and i still get spots. It really is just one of those things, although thankfully i now get less than i did when i was 14 the occasional bleeders always pop up here and there.

    am i the only one who finds it really amusing that you've taken a picture and numbered where your spots are?!

    you can barely even see them, and let's face it..everyone gets them every now and again so don't worry! noone has perfect skin.

    Hmmm ... you kinda sweet looking ...

    Anyway, yes, you hardly have a bad problem ... drink lots of water, stay off alcohol, sweets, oily foodstuff etc and wash your face twice daily with medicated anti-pimple face wash.

    And they will probably last all the way to your late teens or early twenties (in some cases). All teens get spots but if you are careful, you can keep them to a minimum. So don't stop using stuff on them ....

    4 wee tiny spots????????

    .... seriously get a grip. :p

    You can have my spots if you like.... but they will get better in a few years hopefully. Just don't pick them.

    How about, you use your tea-tree treatment on the spots until they've cleared up... pretty simple really. :rolleyes:
    There's no use in starting a treatment and then not finishing it. I'm not surprised they keep coming back. You have to stick with it.
    It's a bit like using antibiotics, if you don't take the whole course, you're wasting your time starting it.
