| Author | Topic: placement of breakouts / location of acne |
| Taylor 09-12-2002 05:54 PM | I was wondering if anyone found a correlation to what they ate and where they broke out. For instance if I eat fruit without fat, I will always break out on my forehead or between my eyebrows. If I eat dirty protein, I will break out on my chin. And if I eat too much heavy food, I will break out on my cheeks. Anyone else notice this? |
| Wai 09-13-2002 08:35 AM | not me Taylor, how is your skin doing? how long have you been on the diet now? Don't you have hormonal acne? |
| Taylor 09-13-2002 12:53 PM | My skin doesn't breakout unless I eat something bad, my skin is quite sensitive and I can't get away with many munch foods. No, I'm not the one with hormonal acne. |
| caroline 09-14-2002 07:19 PM | My Dr. [naturopath] say my acne, which is situated around my neckline/jaw area, is resulting from adrenal exhaustion. She also recommends I stay away from oranges [which I eat allot] since she's noticed many acne patients react strongly to oranges. Dunno if this helps, Caroline |
| Wai 09-15-2002 02:09 PM | Taylor, I'm sorry that I took you for somebody else. I now know who you are again (your username confused me) |

| EggShen 04-11-2003 12:37 PM | I break out around the mouth and chin area a lot more then other areas of my face. I NEVER break out on my forehead but around my mouth for some reason I attract acne like crazy and samething with my back side. I was curious to know why it is like this? |
