Acne on the chin is not just a teenage problem-it’s a persistent issue for many, especially women. Dr. Jawaharlal Mansukhani, a dermatologist at Kokilaben Hospital, highlights the main causes of chin acne.
Hormonal imbalances are the top culprits, particularly during periods, pregnancy, or conditions like PCOS. These fluctuations trigger excess oil (sebum) production, clogging pores.
Stress also plays a role by increasing cortisol levels, which boosts oil production.
Your diet could be hurting your skin too-foods high in refined sugar and dairy might worsen breakouts.
Poor skincare habits like touching your face or reusing dirty face masks can clog pores. Even helmets, chin straps, or musical instrument bands can cause friction and sweat buildup, leading to acne mechanica.
If acne persists or worsens, it might signal deeper issues like PCOS or adrenal problems. Always consult a dermatologist for personalized care.
