My acne is all around my mouth and chin, which I've heard is from hormonal causes. What's the best way to treat this?

Pimples on the chin and around the mouth are frequently triggered by wrong cosmetics, wrong diet, and dependent on hormonal fluctuations. Start with low percentage medical-grade anti-acne creams such as benzoyl peroxide 2.5%. Check your personal routine on the MDacne app for cosmetics and diet advice. Another tip - fluoride in toothpaste and iodine-containing green algae can causes pimples around the mouth. Look for fluoride-free toothpaste and try to avoid sushi.
