Hi Dear,
Welcome to HCM.
Understanding your concern. As per your query you have pimple on chin area which could be due to excessive exposure to sun leading to post inflammatory hyper-pigmentation. It could be due to stress, hormonal imbalance, dehydration as well. I would suggest you to wash your face with plain water three times a day. Apply Clindamycin gel on it. You should not prick or touch pimples , exfoliate your skin to remove dead skin and bacteria's. You should apply vitamin C serum at night. You should drink plenty of water. Avoid exposure to sunlight. Visit dermatologist once and get it examined. Start treatment after proper diagnosis is made out. Doctor may prescribe antibiotics , isotretinoin containing ointment or procedures like chemical peel or microdermabrassion. Avoid stress. Take supplements rich in vitamin B12.
Hope your concern has been resolved.
Get Well Soon.
Best Wishes,
Dr. Harry Maheshwari
