Whiteheads take a lot longer than a week to clear up, and frankly, medications don't do all that great a job of clearing them. If you want them gone fast, you should consider having a facial, in which an esthetician cleans them out. Of course, that doesn't prevent them from coming back, but using medication may hep with that.
Best.
