Raised Bumps On Chin...hypertrophic Scar?

11 March 2013 - 03:13 PM

Hi i was wondering if anybody can help me identify what these raised bumps are and how to treat them. I've had these for over a year and my dermatologist told me they were clogged pores but i haven't seen any improvement. I've seen a couple threads related to this however nobody on the threads have longed on in years. So i was wondering if anyone else has had these or if they can give me their opinion as to what they are. 

 

So i guess what i want to know is that can clogged pores  raise the surface of the skin and give it this bumpy texture or are these scars?

 

Here's a pic i found online which is very similar  

 


Clogged Pores Or..?

03 March 2013 - 10:26 PM

Hi i was wondering if anybody can help me identify what type of acne or condition this is on the chin from this thread http://www.acne.org/...th-my-chin-pic/

I've been to the dermatologist and asked him about my chin and  told me they were clogged pores but i've had this for more than a year. He's prescribed me with some topical gels and given me a cleanser but haven't seen any improvement really. I was also on dans regimen a year ago for my other acne but im not quite sure if it helped with my chin bumps. If i were to incorporate the AHA would that help to unclog the pores on my chin? if anybody can help me i would highly appreciate it!


Clogged Chin Pores

20 February 2013 - 09:37 PM

New Member here and was wondering if anybody else was experiencing the same thing as me or would be kind enough to help me out. 

I have had clogged pores on my chin for more than a year with occasional pimple flair ups in the chin area making it look worse. I've been to the dermatologist 5 times and all he has given me is a glycolic foam wash prescribed me with veltin gel,  duac, aczone and epiduo but it obviously hasn't helped clear my  chin only my other acne.  On my last visit i had asked him if he could just extract/squeeze the pus out but said no. Do dermatologists do glycolic peels or any type of extractions?? or do i have to go to a different specialist for that? 



I have also used Dans regimen more than a year ago and was considering using it again and getting the AHA if that would help please let me know.
