Why Am I Having Too Much Of Acne/pimples On My Face Mostly On Glabella?
Question: why am i having too much of acne/pimples on my face mostly on glabella, cheeks
Brief Answer:
Probably due to excess oil on the skin
Detailed Answer:
Hello dear,
I read carefully your query and understand your concern.
The acne in the glabellar area and cheeks are usually due to excess oil.
The excess oil on your skin can clog hair follicles, which causes pimples.
I would recommend to avoid touching that area which can trigger the acne.
I also recommend to eat fewer carbs, since they can make skin oilier.
I suggest to wash your face regularly with a benzoyl peroxide cleanser product.
If the acne continues, an antibiotic cream can be used to treat the acne better.
Hope my answer was helpful.
If you have further queries feel free to contact me again.
Kind regards!
