My chin has been breaking out for a couple months?

I don't know what's happening but it never used to do this. My chin is now full of red spots and it looks so bad and I've been cleaning my face twice a day and putting acne cream on but it's not clearing up

    I went to the doctors for acne recently and they gave me a course of antibiotics specifically used for skin conditions. Its a pretty common treatment for acne and its supposed to be very effective. I've only just started my course, it usually takes 6 weeks to work and then you are supposed to keep using them for a month after your skin clears up. For some people thats it, it just seems to kick the acne out and it stays out. For others it keeps the acne away for a while then you go back on the antibiotics again. Its quite a low dose I think and you're okay to take these pills long term.

    Still talk to the doctors about this, they should have some good advice.

    There’s a simple way to deal with cystic and all other forms of acne. Suitable for all skin types.

    Niacinamide (aka Niapads ®) face pads help keep acne away by scrubbing open clogged pores, oily residues and exfoliation. Feel a pimple coming? Just wet a pad, place it on the pimple and remove it when dry. Sit back and watch pimple disappear. Works on body acne too.

    These pads also help reduce skin hyperpigmentation (acne scars) and increase skin hydration.

    Use it and see the difference.

    Have you considered using neutrogena. I know it can be a bit expensive but it's helped me and some of my friends. If it still doesn't clear in about 2 weeks I would go to a dermatologist.
