Hi Ana.
See your doctor for a topical retinoid cream such as Retin-a (tretinoin) or Differin (adapalene). He may also prescribe a course of oral antibiotics such as Oxytetracycline to kill acne-causing bacteria on the skin.
Female acne patients will also benefit from taking an anti-androgen contraceptive pill such as Diane35/Dianette or Yaz/Yasmin. These blocks the action of male hormones on the skin. (You don't say how old you are, but these pills are commonly prescribed for girls with acneic skin, who have started their periods, even if you are not yet sexually active).
