Home > Ask the Dermatologist > Questions & Answers > Answer Dermatologist Answers Online Search the database for your question: adult acne Question I'm 30 years old and never had a problem with my face breaking out. In the last 6 months to a year it has started breaking out mainly around my chin area and now the lower sides of my cheeks. I've always had flawless and clear skin until recently. I've tried proactive and it helped for a little while then it was back to breaking out. I've actually scarred my face up pretty good picking at the pimples before they actually become a pimple because I'm not use to having them there. HELP! Answer Based on the location of the breakouts (jaw, lower cheek) it sounds like this may be due to hormonal issues. For acneic issues I prefer to recommend the CosMedix product line. From this line I suggest you consider CosMedix Purity Clean. Spot treating is very beneficial, as you are targeting problem areas. Consider CosMedix Clarity Serum to spot treat. For day and night moisture consider CosMedix Phytoclear. The acne issues should also be treated with daily supplements such as CosMedix Clarity Supplement. Keep in mind too, picking should always be avoided. The post-scarring from picking is far more difficult to treat then acne. Best skin care wishes.
