Hi,

I've been having chin acne since I was around 20, I'm now 26 and I absolutely hate it! It's always my chin area (with the occasional one off pimple on my left cheek), it's especially bad during what I believe to be ovulation time. I can guarantee one or a few will pop up on that week without question. When one or how any I have go, more just pop up. Sometimes I get blind pimples that get three mini pimples on top. It's insane!

I've tried many things. In the past, birth control, but I didn't like that and it didn't really help. I've tried many topical treatments prescribed by a doctor, I've tried courses of small doses of antibiotics to try and kill the bacteria. These I believe helped sometimes in keeping the skin clearer for longer than it normally would, but it always comes back. I wash my face with tea tree solutions or soft face washes and toners.... I've been a vegan for 6 months now, so I don't eat any dairy either, I eat super well on fruit and vegetables... I don't know what else to do.

Can anyone offer ideas?
Thanks!
