Deep Acne?

Question
I have been suffering a very strange sort of pimple for the past few years and have no idea what to do about them. They occur on my cheeks near the T-zone and are very deep under the skin, so much so that they don't turn red and are completely impossible to pop. But they create a large pus-filled bump and stay under my skin for months before they disappear! I know they're pimples because like my other normal pimples, they only appear when I'm off birth control and exfoliating and other non-prescription topical creams don't seem to do anything about them. What can I do?
