SPOTS on the chin area are often referred to as hormonal breakouts as they’re more common in women, but is that true? Here’s the meaning behind a spotty chin.
Face mapping refers to the process of identifying the cause of spots based on their location on the face. A common place to regularly break out in the chin and jawline, but what causes this? Express.co.uk chatted to World-leading Aesthetic Doctor and Global Lecturer in beauty and wellbeing, Dr Jonquille Chantrey (@drjonquillechantrey on Instagram) to find out why YOU keep getting a spotty chin.
Dr Chantrey said: “There is little scientific evidence to support definitive causes to specific distributions of acne.
“Common causes which can occur in any region include hormonal imbalance, genetic factors, dietary influences, poor gut function, stress and inappropriate topical skincare.
“Often there is a combination of a number of these factors and this is why I strongly encourage the advice of a medical skin care professional who can take into account all of these elements to guide the patient.” But what does it mean when you only seem to get blemishes on the lower third of your face, the chin and the jawline?
