I'm 13. I have tried alot of creams, but no real luck. It started when I was about 10 and has only gotten worse.
When I don't use any cream my face looks like this:

When I use treatment, imagine this all around my cheecks and chin:

How long will this last?

it depends on your genes and hygiene.
wash your face more maybe so they don't form as much

Depending what your genetics are from parents you can have them for your entire life but most acne stops when you turn into your twenties, it's more of a teenage thing. You also might be using too strong a cream or not strong enough, with what the first picture looked like you might have to go to a dermatologist and get a prescribed acne medicine.

Depends on your body. It may go away in a few years when things start to even out, or you may be one of the millions with adult acne.

It just depends on your hormones and your eating and skin care habits but it can last forever.
