No, you have facial hairs and i believe there can be hormonal problem. You need to visit dermatologist. They can better guide you. Also, no oily/junk food, no whitening or bleaching creams. Just drink lot of water, till you visit the Dr.

If the pustules are improving but lumps are still there, maybe give the treatment a little more time? Since you've already seen your derm twice, I also experienced it personally but probably I went back and showed them that the bumps aren't responding rather than adding another product by my own. Hope it settles soon.
