Avatar f tn return to your dermatologist for further evaluation. this isn't herpes .
Avatar f tn nope, not just you. these crazy hormones.. no one seems to notice my skin except me. even my fiancé says he doesn't see anything.. but I can see a few bumps here & there on my forehead, chin, and sometimes on or around my temples! "/ I've been using a cream though, seems to be working.. just pick up something to apply every night after your shower!
Avatar f tn 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. My acne just got worse so i was put on accutane for 2 months and it cleared my skin. By that time i was 17 years old . After two months i started getting pimples again .
Avatar f tn For the past year almost year and half now, I have developed a rather large group of small bumps all over my right cheek and chin as well as over my forehead and some on my left cheek (but not as much). I will confess to pinching some of them only to have a white solid secretion, doing this eventually makes that one fade I think. I normally use a mild papaya soap cleanser and a natural apricot scrub. On occasion I use either a neem or argan oil mud mask.

Avatar f tn I have it all over my forehead and chin. I had amazing skin with only breakouts during that time of the month until I got pregnant lol. I'm sure it just depends and varies with hormones.
325319 tn?1220588398 I feel ya girl. I've always broke out and I just started clearing up when I got pregnant ( I found out the caffeine I was drinking was a big problem). Since I've been about 6wks holy c r a p! I get the deep painful zits that take forever to go away and you can't pop. Then I'm left with a red spot for weeks. It sucks. I'll be glad when I'm in my 2nd trimester and hopefully this will ease up some.
428506 tn?1296557399 wonko- I am also on Mino and have recently had more breakouts, especially on my forehead! I thought it odd to get more zits on an abx usually used for acne! I also relate this type of breakout to a higher TSH for me. I am hypothyroid as well. I have a phone consult this week with my doctor and a follow up appt 2 weeks after that. I will ask at one or the other what is up with this.
304970 tn?1331425994 re having such a hard time w/acne. I suffered from severe acne from age 16-19 and it was really difficult. I still get bad breakouts at 25 and, now that I'm pregnant, things aren't any better! I can tell you a few tips that I used back in the day, and that I use now: - Always use a clean towel to pat (don't rub) your face dry after washing. I keep a stack of clean washcloths on the counter just for drying and use a new one every night. - Don't wash more than twice a day.
Avatar m tn 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...
Avatar m tn 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.
Avatar f tn hey im just over 34wks now and had acne breakouts on my forehead bhnd my ears btwn my boobs and back, i knw its terrible stl hv it lol, hopefully it will clear up after my bby has arrived.
Avatar f tn My face never breaks out either, but in my first few weeks of pregnancy my skin looked horrible! Maybe you are pregnant!
Avatar n tn 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.
9787569 tn?1416485172 I normally have oily skin but never really had a problem with acne. My normal skin routine is not preventing the breakouts. Any suggestions??
Avatar f tn ve had once about a year ago as well. I have mild to moderate acne on my face. I do get nodular/cystic acne, mostly along the jawline, around my ears. Occasionally I get it on my forehead or chin area. Generally I just use an acne cleanser usually twice per day and deal with it. Well a month or so ago my skin started breaking out a little more than normal. I had made no change to any skin care or makeup or anything. As a result I started to look for some new care products for acne, etc...
8324906 tn?1398158808 I'm 12wks 5 days and haven't had acne since high school. Now I'm constantly breaking out on my chin and cheeks, it almost looks like a rash. I also break out on my back and chest. I know that hormones during pregnancy can have a lot to do with break outs. I haven't brought it up to my doctor, because it doesn't look that severe (yet), but I would probably see a dermatologist and find out safe options for controlling acne. I believe ftm stands for first time mom. Good luck!!
Avatar n tn I am having the same problem as the person above, however, I have saw a dermatologist and am now using glytone, benzacline, and tezaran cream. Neither seem to be working. As the person above has stated, I still break out every month around the time that my cycle is supposed to start. The bumps are very small, appear to be whiteheads and appear around my jawline, the right and left side of my face, forehead, etc. Is there anything I can do to prevent my face from breaking out.
Avatar f tn Wonder if its true too. I only break out on my forehead really bad and my face has gotten so oily I hate it.
Avatar n tn 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.
Avatar f tn ( regular soap and water like I normally use doesn't seem to be working what do you guys suggest??
Avatar f tn 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!
688845 tn?1325182236 Never had breakouts before, I never even had acne when I was a teenager, but right before tested + for DD, big 'ol forehead zit. Good luck, SSBD!
Avatar f tn 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?
Avatar f tn 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.
Avatar f tn It is normal to get acne on your neck, chest, or even back. I had some on the back of my neck, chest, and upper back. As for the scabs I'm not sure but try usig head and shoulders or something similar to that to see if it goes away but try not to scratch then.
