What Your Acne Means By Location According to A Dermatologist
HTML-код
- Опубликовано: 27 авг 2024
- Although little research has been made on why acne develops only in certain areas of the skin, there are reasons to refer to acne face mapping.
Based on Ayurvedic principles, a 3,000-year-old natural system of medicine that originated in India, it is believed that acne indicates that your innate ability to detoxify is having trouble eliminating harmful substances in the body that may contribute to acne.
While these are great clues to refer to when managing your acne, acne does not have a one-size-fits-all solution. The reason for your acne can be different from someone else's and it's best to consult a specialist when it comes to addressing your acne.
Keep watching to learn more about acne face mapping!
I’ve started changing my pillows cases each week and have seen an improvement in my cheek acne
Me too 😢
i do and no progress 😹😹
What else can we do to get relief from cheek acne ?
I put a fresh towel on my pillow every night. It freaks me out to not lay my face on something clean 😂
@@karleyj9706 hey u also have cheek acne?
Or none of those, if you have acne all over - doesn't mean you have all the mentioned issues. Acne is a lot more complicated
Yess!
Yes, you have all of those issues, probably a terrible diet
People forget hormonal acne can be anywhere too. It’s not just diet for a lot of people. For me, it wasn’t!
Oh god, just before or during my period I either get clear skin to die for, or I get the crapmend of the stick and I just flare up everywhere over and over again. I used to never get acne, like one zit every 4-6 months (maybe a little of those tiny tiny ones) but that’s all. Now it’s all over the place and I hate it. 😭 it takes forever to go away if it ever does, and by the time it’s almost healed and the dark spots are gone, my period is here again and either it just starts over or goes away! I don’t understand it and I’ve tried everything but birth control. (I’m 38 and I just want to live my life dang it!)
I get acne in the T-zone (Forehead, nose, and chin)
What helped me with pimples and acne:
》 avoiding sugar and milk
》only wash your face with an very gentle cleanser or in the morning only with water and a face cloth > after that use non-comedogenic sunscreen
》before you go to bed wash your face with your gentle cleanser and then use a toner which is skin-soothing and has a pH value of 5.5. After that you can put on a water based moistruizer or some castor oil (it actually won't clog your pores)
》don't touch your face (you cannot imagine how dirty your hands are actually)
》drink enough water
》don't wear heavy make up
》 put your hair up in a bun or something when you go to sleep cause the products in your hair will go on your face in the night when you move around sleeping in your bed
》try putting chamomile tea on your face
I hope I didn't forget anything and wish you good luck with your skin ❤🌷
Tysm Arielle!
I think it’s the sugar and milk for me bc when i stopped eating my face cleared up. Back to no ice cream.
Thank you for this too btw you’re appreciated.
For me it was sugar, touching face and especially don't drinking enough water
Question, what if your hair is too short to tie up? I also have bangs but I dont want to grow them out.
damn dude tf goin on in my stomach 😭

Take some probiotics or drink kombucha!
FR WHAT IS GOING ON? 😩
99% of my ance forms on my cheeks. The ance bumps never go away. Just gets smaller and then flares up throughout the month. I know for a fact my diet needs to change. I guess I will change my bedding throughout the week and start cleaning my phone screens every day.
I’ve dealt with cheek acne for years just as you described and I found out it was entirely hormonal. Went thru so many restrictive diets, pillow case covers, overall lifestyle changes and they’ve don’t nothing for my skin. Went to see a dermatologist and found out it was hormonal which explained the flare ups around my period. You’re better off consulting with a doctor or derm and getting a prescription, trust me it’ll save you the headache and money. Topical creams/solutions, isotretinoin, tretinoin, anti bacterial oral prescriptions, and birth control all help target hormonal acne. Please don’t listen to what people say about lifestyle changes because majority of acne is hormonal and rarely is it lifestyle-based or dietary. I’m speaking from years of experience, don’t wanna see someone go thru the same struggle I went thru 💕
@spooky enough? I have my first appointment with a dermatologist in June. I'm excited because I'm sick of this 😣 plus they can help with my hyperpigmentation. Thank you.
@@tatattaylor I'm happy for you. I've been living with the same condition since middle school and I'm glad there are people I can relate to. The struggle of acne is so often undermined because of the stigma that it's based on a poor diet, it's not always the case and it hurts that when you feel blamed for something you can't control. Even though dermatologist appointments seem like they're months away, it's def worth the wait. I got an oral antibiotic prescription and my skin already started to clear up after a week. I hope all goes well for you as well
@@spookyenough7254 can I ask which oral medication they gave you ?
You can balance your hormones by eating extremely clean. And when I say clean I mean just like berries, greens and maybe seeds or quinoa for proteins and avocados. Your skin will glow
Bro my harmones are not balancing 😔
Give them yoga classes not for flexibility, for balancing

@@Dontreadmynamee3 You're funny
My breakouts are definitely on my chin, jawline, and neck during my period.

interesting, forehead and stomach..
Drink normal hot water in morning and drink lemon water when you feel you need water and use aleo vera I also have acne but these things help me a lot
Note
You're beautiful in what way you're. You're very adorable and loved .
@@addadayt2430 augh you're so sweet
Those can be completely unrelated and this video is misleading. Stomach issues could be ibs, stress related, food intolerances etc. Acne is more complex than just these basic points made in the video and often have nothing to do with diet/stomach issues
@@kokteilisjuodas9 very true
@@addadayt2430 i actually love you so much for these tips.
I have acne scattered all over due to stress from work, hormonal imbalance (pcos), abd stomach issues for sure
How do you correct hormonal imbalance? I always get it on my chin, jawline, and under my chin (and now even neck) before my period and it’s insanely painful and stubborn. All the cystic acne that forms takes literal months to go away and leaves behind scars. I’ve started eating healthy and exercising which cleared my acne in some other areas but nothing is helping the chin, jawline, or under-chin acne
Chin and jawline for me. I'm 35 and still dealing with hormonal acne. It sucks. My mom had it too. She said her skin cleared up just in time for her to start getting wrinkles.
Omg that means our skin will start clearing up only just before getting our wrinkles? I’m 35 like you. Acne erupted suddenly on my jawline and chin after years of having a clear skin. Don’t know what to do.
Same here I miss in my 20s where I didn’t have much breakout
Same here!
I recommend checking your thyroid levels, my mom was having the same issues it was hypothyroidism
@@jijo4431 I had it checked a while ago and everything came back normal. But I'm glad you wrote this comment for other people. I honestly think for some of us it's genetic. I have noticed since increasing my protein my skin is looking much better.
Bro i got everything going on! 😎👌 My stomach is terrible, im super stressed, i have excess oil, gut problems- everything this lady mentioned, i gots it
There is no such thing as a "pimple map", tik tok doctors are disappointment
I disagree. I have very obvious hormonal acne, and I break out on my chin and jawline. My mom was the same, and so is my older sister. Adult hormonal acne all in the same place.
My teenage acne was more all over my face. But as an adult it's just in the "hormonal" areas and it definitely flares up with my period. I had perfect skin when I went on birth control. But it made me crazy, and I'm trying to have a baby so that isn't an option for me.

i get terrible tummy aches because i suffer from anxiety, i really want to get rid of it cause it ruins all of my plans and my face. can you give some tips to get rid of anxiety or just the tummy aches itself?
That sounds like IBS - which can't be cured and can only be managed. If it's triggered by anxiety - you should seek counselling or medical help to address that. Not something anyone online should advise you on.
I’ve got hormonal acne and I have no idea how to get rid of it. I feel like I’ve tried everything. I even have acne on my back😔
Someone please help

@Learnalogy got any tips for that??
Try the niacinamide and zinc serum by the ordinary. It's pretty cheap too. Hope it helps!
i used to have moderate acne. my gut health completely deteriorated and my acne cleared up. oh the irony of it all.
Before assuming there’s something that’s actually wrong with you, consider evaluating your skin care, hygiene, diet, and activity level. If you aren’t showering every day, aren’t washing your face, and aren’t exercising at least a Bit, these are the main reasons.
Sugar and excess dairy have a lot of anecdotal evidence that they can cause acne, and to a slower extent: ultra processed foods. While anecdotal, I’ve noticed when I moderate or stop eating sugar I don’t break out as bad so I tend to lean towards sugar being a cause.
Then look at skin care(part of hygiene tbh). You should wash your face 2-3x per day, have a moisturizer, exfoliate about 2-3x a week, and ideally use a sunscreen. I am not someone who actively uses sunscreen, but i recently began having an actual skin care routine and it’s been a big aid in reducing acne.
I use a gentle cleanser in the morning that has some vitamins like vitamin C and ginseng. At night I use a salycilic acid cleanser. Every other day I’ll use a gentle exfoliant(I have very oily skin so I use it like 4x a week). When I am done with my shower/washing my face, I’ll dry it and add a body lotion as a moisturizer (likely not the best product since they have actual facial moisturizers, but it’s still worked fine for me). If I’m breaking out especially bad(usually when I overindulge in sugary stuff tbh), I’ll add a benzolperoxide (I believe that’s the ingredient, but I can’t remember the exact name for sure). I apply it and once it dries I add the lotion.
Even with this somewhat janky skin care routine, I still have had positive results so just establishing one if you don’t already use one will help
Took course of isotretinoin for 4 months for severe acne. My skin got acne free but the only for next 6-7 months when pustules and nodules started and began getting painful 😢😢 started on doxy and benzoyl peroxide. But every day i wake up getting new pustules or nodules. Acne is very debilitating mentally 😢
I have acne on my chin but it’s just one side. The right one. And it’s a small patch that’s frequently breaking out 💀
Me too💀💀
ME TOO DID U EVER HELP IT
How are your teeth? Could be a dental issue

Ayyy PCOS gang 😭🥲🤝🏻
@@catswithcattitudes2728 arghhhhhhh!!!!!!! Lol I have it too!!!! FML
This is somewhat useful for people who have no pimple growing up. I never had pimples growing up, but in University, all of the sudden I have a lot of pimple on my forehead. It was painful. Then, I realised, from a similar video, that it was my hair product. Before my breakout, I always have buzzcut, so switch out my hair product and clean my hair properly. My forehead pimple went away quickly.
Honestly don’t trust most of these vids of people saying the dermatologists because most vids of actual doctors will say at the bottom of the screen certified doctor
I take probiotics and I simi healthy. But I still get acne in my chin, jaw and forehead. I’m always careful to make sure I wash my face once my hair is don’t and to change my pillow case once a week. I am on nexplanon so that may explain it but it’s irritating because I do everything right care wise.
Ive always had jawline acne & ive also always had problems with my hormone levels. So i guess it checks out for me.
But about lymphatic issues and spleen inflammation? Seeing as how acne is a bacteria wouldn’t a compromised immune system possibly not be able to protect from acne?
Hi ❤ pls help me change my face routine for better improvement 😊
Morning: Only wash face thoroughly with water
Afternoon: Just water
Night: Wash with Cetaphil and put Ketoconazole for my fungal acne
THX
Mine is really bad on my cheeks so maybe I’ll try washing my pillow cases more often.
How do I fix a hormonal imbalance?
This music and doctor are everything! ♥️ 😊
Hi I also have Bacne last year and I just use dr wong sulfur soap and its very effective ❤
But sometime your acne comes from genetics and other things yes this is true but there’s other reasons and it doesn’t tell you people aren’t clean it just is how it works I clean my face and do all skin care morning and night and still have it
I have kinda cystic ones on my cheeks… i change my pillow case every day… but i did notice something wrong with my intestines as i am constantly bloated… hmmm 🤔
I have just recently moved countries. I have had acne for about 5 years but my skin was starting to look very clear. Now i have acne all over my cheeks, and my PIH wont seem to budge anymore 😔. I use cleanser, acne treatment, retinol, moisturizer, sunscreen. Cleaning pillows. I feel like my acne wont budge.
I knew I wasn’t “being dramatic” when I said to my mom that I’m pretty sure that my hormones are not balanced! that’s one of many symptoms that made me sure I was right
i never had acne on my cheeks and im so grateful for that but oh god are my pores on my nose clogged all the time. i get common white and black heads in between my eyebrows, chin and around my nostrils. nothing seems so help with that
When you have all 💀😭😭😭
I recommend using a hair skin and nails multivitamin. It changed my life ❤ Long nails, almost clear skin and my hair stopped being greasy. 😊 I had the worst acne that kept coming back. All good now thanks to the multivitamin ❤
Ladies, relax. It's not a "hormone imbalance." It's normal hormone fluctuations that cause hard chin pimples. It's not something that needs to be fixed. It's normal to have a monthly surge of acne on your jawline. No chemical will get in deep enough to prevent or treat it. It's so deep, and usually doesn't come to a head.
Contraceptive pill that targets acne is a great choice. Also try anti-inflammatory gel like Freederm. A colloidial patch will help remove oedema.
it covers every inch of my face ☠️🙏🏻
Us🗿👍🏻
Eat more fresh fruits and vegetables. And use mild cleansers. Gut health and immunity is the most important. See a dermatologist if you think you need to, but it won't end there entirely.
Same ☠️
@@totoitutucoco exactly! I I got 6 sessions of carbon laser treatments and it worsen my acne.. It gotten more inflammed 😭😭😭😭
Same here😢
Im tired of this im crying all ovrr i cant overcome this its causes pain much more
I started breaking out from what I believe was the covid vaccine, but also since then, I’ve been under a lot of stress, and my cheeks definitely suffered. Sadly one of those stressors is my mom who has early onset dementia, she’s been staying a lot more in my sister’s house, and I’m honestly seeing a difference
I found my acne got worse since wearing face masks and never went away. The Covid vaccines were causing inflammation in some people.
I js started using this one hair product and woke up the next morning with acne on my forehead
The forehead one is true! when I was 7-9 years old I had problem with my stomach and I had acne all over my forehead but I don’t stomach issues anymore and the acne on my forehead has disappeared
I get a lot of acne in the space between my upper lip and nose, what about that?
How do you get rid of clogged pores??
The way I got acne all over my face
Tiny bumps on my forehead
Cystic acne on my cheeks and chin.
I hate the way i look with acne. It makes me look so dirty
I think mine is from over exfoliating. I used a physical and chemical exfoliant too close together and my skin has broken out all over my chin and side of my face. I also introduced too many new skincare products at once. It’s happened to me before because I’m sometimes impatient. I got what I deserve
I also suffer from skin picking so I’ve made it even worse
What if I have acne on my chest and back?
Yes can relate! I always have trouble with acne on my forehead and chin area. I do my skin routine every single day but nothing changed until I realized that my stomach and gut were the problem 🥹
I have some on my eyebrows and in the middle of them
I mean sugar is also a huge culprit! Diet can have a massive effect on overall health of everything including skin!
How do you get rid of my forehead acne 😢 and I don’t know what’s goin on in my stomach!
I have acne everywhere 💀
My forehead is clear. I only get acne on my jawline and chin and nothing works so far. My skin responded the most when I was on doxycycline
Im going through menopause abd my acne is near jaw chin/bottom lip area between.I have celluitis which is around the cheek area and am on medicine.Strep /skin barrier related.This is spot on.Except Rosacea can appear like pimples and they are usually on my temple.I am very oily it's unbelievable and I'm close to 54!!!
I change my pillow case in every single day 🗿
What shampoos can I use for acne in my forehead😭
Would recommend conaz shampoo, works well for dandruff which is usually the culprit for forehead and acne at the back of the neck
Scalpe+ if available in your region
Anti dandruff shampoos with salicylic acid in them.
Eliminating Dairy improves acne greatly. And carnivore will eliminated completely
And if U have all, it's only acne😂😂
bro started mewing 💀
Ok this makes sense I don’t really eat a lot so probably that’s why! Thanks
the forehead acne is because of stress, the hairline is from your hair products like gels, edge control, etc.
im not even 20 yet i have so much acne. no its not just one or two, its a lot. its all over my face, from forehead to cheeks to chin to jawline. i dont know what to do anymore im losing hope
Gut health is common in every thig so just focus on clean diet...
Clean diet is a load of bs
Acne is definitely more so an inner imbalance than external products
Omg I have acne on my nose and I see so many different things!!! This one is clogged pores one said eating to much chips and fried food and one said you need more sleep like wtf
Im been going through puberty, i already have armpit hair and mustache hair and hair down there, but ive just been hit with this acne that ive never had all around my face and they hurt so bad ngl
I believe this because I just had a crazy breakout on my chin from Mother Nature
Omg I hadn’t changed my pillow case and my friend slept with my pillow a day ago and when I changed it I noticed a massive difference
I don't know but sometimes it's feel so annoying 😑. Last 2 year I'm suffering with acne .
Forgot to mention environmental stressors, the factor of age, and other bits that can cause "acne".
I have acne all over my face especially
near my cheeks and jaw line
Thank you , I now know that I have all of them . I'll be taking a trip to the pharmacy tomorrow.
I put conditioner on my eye brows… or do I have stomach problems !?
😀 i have acne all over my face except nose, all over my chin and neck, all over my chest and my back. and recently i’ve been getting more pimples along my stomach as well.
like i genuinely want to cry because i do keep myself clean and i try my best to eat healthy too but it’s gotten so much worse and i hate it so much. i don’t know what to do
I had acne on my cheeks and chin years ago. I google this was a “hormonal beard” of acne and I read to get my blood tested for high testosterone at my dr. I took that advice and I found out I had PCOS and I was prescribed metformin and healed it. So I just want to write this to anyone experiencing something similar as advice
I have acne on my cheeks. No matter what moisturizer i use, it causes me acne.🤕
@@Wriglays maybe get your blood tested at a doctor/endocrinologist!
@@Wriglays I’m not a doctor but anything can give you acne but threading could irritate your skin externally and give you acne. Blood testing for pcos is if you tried everything because the cause may be internally
@@Sara-9865 Got it. Thanks🌸
I started noticing this a year ago when my mom forcefully changed my bedsheets, i get less pimples in my skin if i dont change them in like every 10 days😅 i knew this but i m a lazy guy 😓

I have acne in all of the places mentioned 🙃
I’ll make sure to change my hair products that literally make my hair flawless😭
Bro I’ve had acne like crazy around my mouth forever, nasty whiteheads and cysts that eventually surface and look HUGE! Anyone got anything that helped the acne around their mouth, chin, jawline?
Skin above upper lips. Dang! I get so often the redness makes it look like a moustache. And you didn’t even mention ☹️
I eat my meals on time, I don't eat junk, sugar or processed food at all, I do my skincare religiously, my periods are always on time. Then why am I still getting pimples on my chin, upper lip and cheeks?
The forehead one can be related to hair sometimes that was my case I started to double wash my hair

Real. I'm having pain in my stomach from a couple of days and got acne on forhead
Usually i never get acne
Thanks. This helped a lot 🙂
Or maybe people just forget to wash their face in certain areas! Acne can be hormonal, but you can’t pin point issues in the body from the location of acne..
I had pimples all over my face when I was in grade school. I found soap and water do the trick. Keep clean people. Wash your body every night. And your face every night. Don’t skip. Keep up your personal hygiene and you’ll see improvement super quick. Keep clean bed sheets and Don’t go to sleep without having a bath/shower. That will solve a good bit of the problem, and going to a dermatologist super important before you start putting acne treatment stuff on your face! Go with what they tell you to use
I recently went bald but haven’t really seen an improvement in my forehead acne (I use cleanser now instead of shampoo) so it must be stomach related… but I’m lowkey guessing it’s dairy. I’m not intolerant or anything but I feel like I get more forehead acne when I’ve had some lattes, cheese, yogurt…
Nice to know my acne is caused by something i cant control. I have a bad stomach and acid reflux.
I've been having gut pain for a while as I get some flare UPS under my chin but I also do have hormonal issues
Then what about chest, back arms and shoulders as well as all that? ;-;
Been suffering something for years and I get spots all on my face, all of the above and even my thighs, can't get rid of them [Tho honestly I've kinda given up-]
Or maybe you just have acne, and that’s okay! Sometimes nothing like changing food, skincare, pillowcases etc won’t clear it! But that shouldn’t be a problem acne is normal and beautiful and you shouldn’t feel pressure to hide or change it
I have one at the very top of my lip under the side/bottom of my nose and It hurts I feels so bad for people with acne
She is a legend
I have multiple on my cheeks,nose and forehead my hair products are ok so i have stomach issues excess oil oh and almost forgot the chin so hormonal imbalance or stomach health and on the cheeks my pillowcase is clean i dont puf my phone next to my face so no so damaged skin barrier or stress
yeah but I only have acne on one side of my cheek…
i only have oil access and na i dont have any problem with it
Also, you can get acne/pimple anywhere on your body besides the face
