It really depends on what kind of acne you have as to how you treat it. For more mild forms of acne, try gentle cleansing, using just warm water and a soft soap. You can also try various topical treatments that may work as peroxides and such, making sure that you find your treatment easy to use.
If your acne is more moderate to severe, you can try to use a peroxide topical antibiotic, or you can allow your doctor to drain your pimples and cysts. You may need to seek a prescription cream or lotion for your acne at this point. You can also take an oral antibiotic that may clear up your skin.
Often, these treatments will take some time to work. Keep in mind that you'll want to be patient with your acne treatment and not get upset if it doesn't work right away. In general, acne is a problem for the young, but that doesn't mean it can't occur at any age, so be sure to get the help you need for it when it arises at first.
