acne
Omg I thought it was just me! My whole face, neck & chest is full of random acne. But mainly my chin & cheeks. I want them gonnnnne!
I started having pimples when i just turned 16 . Mostly on my forehead and occasionally on my cheeks . Used to control them with face washes and topicals. After 6 months my forehead cleared up but during that time period i had minor breakouts now and then on my cheeks but they mostly cleared up . After that i started getting a lot of pimples on my cheeks so the dermatologist put me on antibiotics for 3-4 months.
( regular soap and water like I normally use doesn't seem to be working what do you guys suggest??
Hello,
I'm a seventeen year old guy, and up until a couple months ago, I've been a pescetarian (I eat fish, eggs, and dairy products, but no chicken, beef, etc) for four years. I have never had any problems with acne at all. I'd get a pimple here or there, but nothing very serious. People even used to talk about how clear my skin was.
( Maybe its because so much happens with our body and baby these last few weeks. How far along are you?
Before the surgery was performed, my menstrual cycle was irregular and I had several breakouts on my face (specifically cheeks) that left scars behind. Now, while my cycle is back on track, I still continue to have these breakouts on my right cheek and I do not know the reason. Can you see any reasons for the same? I would be glad to hear some suggestions too.
I always had very clear skin even during teenage years, but all of a sudden in past year I just started breaking out on my forehead, chin, cheeks...really bad breakouts starting red, some have white heads that pop eventually...first I thought that waxing causes it and stopped, but nothing helps...no systems, nothing....I haven't had any amounts of stress, no real change in diet, I do take birthcontrol pills every couple of months, but break outs started before i started on them...
Whenever I consistently preform vigorous exercise I develop cystic acne mainly on my cheeks. There are however other symptoms indicative of an issue which I experience along with cystic acne. I also experience a spike in anxiety and potential panic attacks for the next few days if I train too much. In addition, I also develop a coating on my tongue.
When I suffer from these breakouts, I mostly get VERY itchy red bumps on my forehead, my cheeks and whiteheads on the sides of my nose. I try not to touch them other than when I am cleansing (mild facial cleanser [Kiehls' brand]), or applying moisturizer (Nivea for men). I am not doing anything new in terms of grooming habits or using new products, and these outbreaks remain a mystery. I tried applying OTC benzoyle peroxide the last time I had an outbreak, but it did no good.
I am 7wks pregnant and breaking out like crazy!!! I have acne all over my chin and cheeks! This is my first pregnancy and I thought it'd be a happy part of my life but my acne is a big party pooper!!! Does anyone have any pregnancy safe acne meds that I can use?
Recently I've been getting small pimples on both my lower cheeks and chins, for the past two months, it comes and goes, most of them are just Papules and not actual Pustules pimples, only sometimes I get the Pustules pimples. It was really stressing me out as I've never had them so server, so often like this before.
The pimples i keep getting are cystic acne. They hurt really bad and nothing helps them go away. This is currently what i use on my face: Face wash with .5% salicylic acid and another facewash with 3.5% benzoyl peroxide. I MAKE SURE to take really good care of my skin but it dosent seem to work. Also i have a prescription face medication cream called BenzaClin which is 1% clindamycin and 5% Benzoyl peroxide.
i have large pores on my nose and cheeks and the areas in between that look almost like blackheads but not as solid because its just dirty oil. i can squeeze them out relatively easy but their are at least a hundred of them on my face. i have tried many difference face washes and the dirty pores dont ever go away.
i was considering getting an igea sucker to suck them all out but i want to know if anyone else had this problem.
s) heavily, I used to breakout. But not like real acne, but close enough to look like pimples. I only remembered this question as I seen a meth addict yesterday on t.v. and you know how they get those crystal sores all over and pick at them? Kind of the same idea, only not sores more like acne. Now mind you, this was only if I was using heavily, 6 to 10 a day. Heavy use for me...
Thanks for your feedback!
My face never breaks out either, but in my first few weeks of pregnancy my skin looked horrible! Maybe you are pregnant!
Hi, I'd like ask suggestions on what to use. I never really had serious breakouts but after using liquid neutrogena I've had small bumps on my forehead, cheeks and chin. So I used products with salicylic acid sa cleanser toner and moisturizer but now the breakouts are worse and painful. What can I possibly us? Is Clinique 3 step ok?
When I look in the mirror right now besides a few spots all I see is like a rash on my cheeks, my pores are open around my nose/under my eye. There are also like white spots (not spots but like my true skin colour) around my main cheek area. It is really hard to describe and I have uploaded some pictures for you to look at.
Has anyone had any bad breakouts while being pregnant?? Normally I get bad breakouts around my period, but haven't. Only odd thing is ive noticed breakouts on my chest area & usually I breakout on my face.
I just had my third round of allergy shots today and have noticed that I’ve broken out very badly on my cheeks and sides of face. I’m a 26 AA. I’m highly allergic to dust mites, mold, trees, pollen, cats, and dogs. I have never had a breakout this bad. I noticed the bumps popped up within a couple of days of my first session. I thought nothing of it initially. But it got worse and today after my session it was noticeably worse and more irritable (itchy).

It spread ALL OVER my cheeks and jawline in these huge pimples and my old acne was just a memory. Now, it has gotten worse over the past few weeks- dark red, cysts, pustules covering my face where my beard would be if I were a man. My t zone is basically clear. My nose is very clear and my forehead has the normal breakouts I had before- sporadic and hyperpigmented. (I'm Mexican and always hyperpigment for every little thing!
So I'm 21weeks today, but ever since I was about 16weeks I've had major acne breakouts!! When do they end?? I've never been one to have acne breakouts and now its just irritating Me so so much! Ugh!! When is it supposed to end?
This problem only happens on my cheeks, not my chin or mustache. A day or two after shaving I notice that I have anywhere from 10-20 small spots on my cheeks that look like blackheads, but are not. The longer I go without shaving the more obvious these small black spots are. Some of them get irritated immediately, some don't for months. I break the skin to dig out what ends up being facial hair. It almost seems that the hair died before making it through the skin.
