Hello. I need urgent advice. For some time very serious skin problems. Before that, my face was like a baby's. For 5 months now I have brownish and hard things on my face (cheeks and forehead) like spots. At first they started with small pimples in the same place, but then they turned into this horrible thing that I can't explain what it is. I was a beautician, he cleaned my face, but he couldn't figure out what it was .. 1-2 days later cosmetics pimples appeared again subcutaneous and painful on the cheeks where the spots are. I was also a dermatologist. She was supposedly recommended to me, but she prescribed creams that had no effect. I applied them for 2 months and nothing. What have I not tried (homemade masks, peels, creams and generally whoever tells me that it helped him) I've heard that it may be from food. I do not eat sweet, greasy and I try to avoid dairy products. If anyone has had the same or similar problem .. please let me know. Tell me where to go and what to do, because the situation is very bad. I'm ashamed to show myself outside ... this miracle doesn't cover properly with make-up either. It's just awful: ((Help !!!

Most likely it is acne, go to a dermatologist or other dermatologist. Usually the treatment of such skin problems happens internally, ie with pills, not only externally. It is very possible that a hormonal imbalance has occurred
I have been in the same situation for 8-9 years with periods of calm and complete cleansing. I went to all kinds of doctors - dermatologists, gynecologists, endocrinologists, but I did not happen to a specialist. This summer, the skin on my face just got out of control, it became literally all baboons. I squeezed pus like a tablespoon from the nasty deep and painful pimples ... a huge nightmare. But lately, I think I've started to heal permanently on my own. Hippocrates also said that food is our medicine. I will tell you what I think is the cause of my acne and how I treat it, but please take into account that the causes of your acne may be different and may not help you much. So, my period has never been too regular (always with a few days off), but in the years around and shortly after puberty this is normal. The problem with me was, that as a student I had to work to support myself completely, I also studied a difficult specialty that required a lot of learning. It was very, very difficult for me, because I am a perfectionist person and a grade lower than 6 did not satisfy me ... I literally combined everything - learning and work - with magic. To succeed, I started stealing from my sleep. On some days I slept for 1-2 hours only. I drank a lot of coffee - 10 coffees a day. My nervous system was on edge. Of course, this could not but affect my health. My period started at 40-50 days, I gained weight, huge cysts appeared on my face. My life to this day is very stressful. How do I explain this acne? It is purely hormonal in my opinion. Drinking coffee leads to an increase in estrogen in the body at the expense of progesterone. The result - pimples, increased hair growth ... I have a good effect on stopping coffee and limiting carbohydrates - the so-called LMF. There is a lady who often comments here and recommends this diet. I personally don't like her, not at all, she appears in other places on the Internet, but she is right about this way of eating. Sugar, flour, potatoes, rice - they are the best friends of acne.
Ask a doctor. Go to your GP and ask her what to do.
Go to an allergist. You may be allergic to something.
So you have to visit a dermatologist for an accurate diagnosis but I'm sure he will send you to the ENT to check the glands because there is a big chance that makes the glands work out of order and cause aggressive acne so they have to prescribe insulators that will suppress the glands themselves and the clearing will begin.
From the author: Thank you all for your attention and answers. To number 2..I will limit coffee and carbohydrates as you say, let's see! I also study a difficult specialty and work, but I am a calm person and I find it difficult to experience stress, my menstruation is regular. Otherwise, I have heard that stress and irregular menstruation cause acne. Number 4, I've been to an allergist and I know what I'm allergic to and I stay away from these things and unfortunately it's not like that: .they only take your money! I hope it helps! I will write about the result!
