Why Pimples Develop On Particular Facial Areas
There aren’t many skin problems that are
more annoying than acne - everyone’s experienced waking up one bright
morning with these annoying red pimples on their face. Acne is not a
problem that stops at the end of puberty - it may accompany us late into
adult life, due to many causes, which can be both internal and
external. Many dermatologists believe that the causes of acne can be
identified by the areas of the face on which they appear, and this claim
is backed by research. The next article will explain why pimples appear
on certain areas of the face and how to prevent the recurrence or
aggravation of this disturbing phenomenon.
1. Acne on the forehead
Acne on the forehead area can be the result
of excessive stress or and inconsistent and inappropriate hours of
sleep and sleep times. These nuisances, when they appear on the
forehead, may indicate various gastrointestinal problems (such as those
resulting from an overly-fibrous diet), as shown in the following study,
conducted in 2014. Alternatively, this type of acne can be the result
of various liver function problems, so if you feel an abnormal
occurrence in your body together with the appearance of forehead acne,
you should definitely go get checked.
2. Acne on the jawline and chin
The appearance of acne on the jawline and
chin area is always the result of hormonal changes in the body, as
demonstrated in this study conducted by the National Research Centre in
Cairo, Egypt. If you experience an outbreak of pimples in this area, it
is recommended that you go and check your hormone levels. The appearance
of small, reddish nuisances in this area may be the result of high
levels of the male hormone androgen in the body, or as a result of
menstruation in women.
3. Acne on the cheeks
Pimples on the cheeks can be caused by
increased blood sugar. If you experience cheek breakouts, and you feel
that you are eating too many sweets, try limiting the amount of
high-sugar foods that you consume and try adopting a healthier diet.
Another possible and surprising reason for cheek acne is your cell
phone. Mobile phone screens contain a whole host of bacteria coming from
your body and returning to the skin of your face as you talk.
Therefore, don’t forget to clean your phone screen with a disposable
rubbing alcohol pad from time to time, thus avoiding the nuisances.
4. Acne on the sides of the face
Hormonal changes can also be the cause of
pimples on the hairline or near the ears. Another possible cause of this
type of acne lies in the clogging or irritation of the pores in the
area, in which case you should check the makeup, face cream or shampoo
you use - one of their ingredients may be responsible for the
phenomenon. If you suspect this may be the problem, try using natural or
organic products and see if your skin improves.
5. Pimples on the upper lip, the tip of the nose and on its sides
Acne on the nose, at the tip or on its
sides, can be a signal from the body that you consume too much spicy,
salty and oily food, so try to reduce the amounts and doses of this type
of food. Also note your heart health and blood pressure, as acne in
this area, as well as in the upper lip area, may indicate heart
problems, as well as disruptions in spleen and lung function.
6. Pimples between the eyebrows
If you experience breakouts in the small,
bare area between your eyebrows, it can be linked to liver problems.
Acne between the eyebrows is basically a signal from the body that your
diet isn’t balanced and is filled with too many fatty foods, which
actually disrupt the functioning of the liver, an organ which plays an
important part in digestion and metabolism.
