It may not be adult acne... Let me tell you my story.
I was about the same age as you when I started breaking out all over my neck, jaw, chin, back of my neck. It was horrible. And they weren't regular pimples, they were little tiny white heads. Well, I pretty much tolerated it for a year and a half, trying everything out there, but nothing worked. It seemed about every month, they'd break out real bad, and then after a couple of weeks, settle down only to come back again the following month. So I started thinking it was hormonal--related to my cycle or something.
Well...we moved into a new house, and after a short while, it seemed I stopped getting them. So then I started thinking I was allergic to something in my old house (carpet, mold? I don't know.)
So, time goes by, and I decided to go and get my hair done by the girl I used to get it done with. It had been a few months since I had been to her. So guess what. Shortly after I got my hair done, they came back. I put 2 and 2 together and decided that I was getting something from the cape at my hairdresser. I haven't been back and I haven't gotten them again.
So, it may not be acne... |
