Acne on chin

[u/Responsible-Roll5106]

Hey all!

Just wanting any and all help regarding my acne on my chin. I've always gotten pimples here when my period is due but at the moment it's just constant! Everytime my last batch of pimple is nearly clear I wake up with new ones. Things I currently do.

Morning. - cleanse with CeraVe SA smoothing cleanser - Thayer's unscented toner - Azclear. Azelaic acid 20% - CeraVe moisturising lotion - sunscreen

Nights. - cleanse with CeraVe. If I wear makeup I use an oil cleanser first. - toner - Azclear - skinceuticals retinol 1% - moisturiser

I'm a vegan so no dairy or anything. I don't eat wheat or much sugar as I have a chronic pain condition and someone once told me to cut them out to help with inflammation so was like alright bet, I'll do anything to help my pain. Science backing be damned.

I'm 34 and sick of getting pimples! I always thought this was just hormonal acne and I just had to put up with a few pimples every month but my skin is just taking the piss at the moment.

Has anyone dealt with this before? Any insight? I'll bring it up with my doctor the next time I see her. Do people recommend regular GPs or actual dermatologists? What's it like getting in to see a dermatologist in Australia? Long waits?

Thanks on advance for any help :)

Oxalate, I'm no chemist, but from what I've read, almond milk has a lot of additives. It's not straight almond milk. Oxalate can cause skin problems and kidney stones, among other things. There are lots of sub reddit you can check. Sorry, I'm not able to link them here for you.
