First of all please stop self treatment. Pimples need to be treated for longer duration with medicine for adequate results. Please send photos using online consult option for proper examination diagnosis and treatment

Knowing the reason for your acne and treatment according to it is important. You need to consult a dermatologist online. Only facewash and clindamycin dosent work in most cases.
