acne-pimple, acne-comedo, acne-blemish are used to refer to the different stages of the illness. That illness is called 豆豆,粉刺: 暗疮: 青 春 痘, 痤 疮, OR 毛 囊 炎. All the are the same, none of them has an indication of the stage.
You may choose to put pimple. blackhead and blemish in your back translation but that is not the translation of the terms of 豆豆,粉刺: 暗疮. You may place a note saying that the translation is your guess only.
