I had the same problem. I'm now on accutane because my back breaks out so bad, but a very good dermatologist in my area told me that was a different kind of acne (he told me what it's called, but I can't remember). He said luckily it wasn't the kind that scars. He sent me to an esthetician who put some stuff on my skin that really burned (i went every three weeks for a few months). She also lanced any bad ones. Plus the doctor gave me retina. In about 6 weeks, they were completely gone. It was amazing. I really did not have any spaces on my face that weren't bumpy before that, and it cleared up really well. So, I would go see a dermatologist if it's bothersome. All the over-the-counter stuff did nothing but dry me up so bad that I had a dry and bumpy face!
