Ok so first time poster here on Acne.org so sorry if this post was not started in the right area but i hope a Mod will move it to the correct one if need be.

Ok so my dilemma/ question here is, I have had this problem for years where along my chin area and to the sides (just below my cheeks) there's, I believe, tons n tons of un inflammed pimples or whiteheads. Bets way to describe them is there right where my hair follicle is (maybe right under them?) n so where tha hair grows I guess is where the pimple is forming.. For an example is anywhere on my chin area where facial hair is starting to grow back, after shaving, or wherever there's a hair follicle, i can squeeze that tiny bump n the white pus or sebum comes out. never ever fails ! is this normal for whiteheads or whatever these things are called to be right underneath the hair follicle? Is my face just naturally disliking my facial hair,? Cuz Iv noticed when i grow out facial hair my face does become more oily n pore gets clogged.

My daily washing regimen is , wash face in morning, keep moisturized, wash in afternoon if needed, and for sure wash face before going to sleep, while face staying as moisturized as can be (face does get really dry after i wash it) & when its available I use the clearasil pimple remover (the 4 hour thing) that gets rid of blemishes visablly n whatnot in 4 hours, stuff with the BP in it. But as of late I havent been able to get anymore of that stuff so I have only been able to just wash my face..

Sorry if im getting out of contorl here, Im just frustrated in these little whiteheads/ blackheads whatever that are lining up my whole chin area. Granted i diet n excercise plans n routines could get a little better which does help with the inflammed pimples I get on my cheeks but i usually have that under control.

what are u washing with,also thers another post by lookingfor the cure couple post below yours,believe your problem is over washing over drying which is forcing skin to produce sebum,a gentle less drying cleanser is cetaphil they also have moisturizer,recommended by my derm, hope i helped

I had the same problem, well still kind of do, I started using duac and it cleared 90% of my chin acne, so maybe ask your doc to perscribe it to you. Hopefully it will help you
