She has whiteheads and is getting scars because she picks at them. I know that she is starting puberty and I don't know if this acne will be temporary. I don't want to start her on something that could potentially harm her skin when these breakouts that she is getting could go away on their own.Acne 11 Year Old, Best answer:

OMG, there are so many options now that were not available when you and I were kids!! Take her to a dermatologist and get her some help, there is no reason for her to suffer through acne.. There are so many self image problems that kids face at this time in their lives, help her with this one issue at least.
