Acne Q&A

At my age, I'm getting small bumps on my chin and around my mouth. Would it be okay if I received a skin care consultation?

Hello. I am an office worker in my mid-60s.

Lately, small, bumpy things have been popping up on my chin and around the corners of my mouth. Some of them are slightly red, too. I'm posting a photo along with this.

I didn't really have acne even when I was young, but I think it started appearing after I switched to a richer nourishing cream ahead of winter.

I am curious if it is common to have these kinds of skin troubles even in one's 60s, and if they can be resolved with skincare.

My skin tends to be dry, so I'm worried that getting acne treatment might make it feel even tighter. I'd also like to ask if there's a way to manage it along with moisturizing.

I've just left it as is because I'm worried it might leave a mark if I squeeze it by hand, but I'd also like to know what's the best way to handle it at home.

I would appreciate it if you could let me know if it is a one-time session or if I need to visit a few times.

I get worried about breakouts every time I exercise and sweat a lot haha[2]
CommentsIt's amazing that you exercise consistently. I'm also curious about how you take care of yourself after sweating.

My oil-moisture balance was disrupted during the change of seasons, causing small pimples to appear on my chin and cheeks. I would like to know about soothing care after extraction and the treatment cycle.[2]
CommentsDuring the change of seasons, temperature fluctuations cause dead skin cells to clog pores, disrupting the oil-moisture balance and easily leading to the breakout of small bumps. Since your pores are open on the day of extraction, I recommend washing your face gently with lukewarm water; it is best to wait until the following day to apply makeup to help prevent inflammation. You can usually feel your sebum production gradually stabilizing after receiving the extraction and soothing care 3 to 5 times at intervals of 1 to 2 weeks. If your skin tends to be sensitive and dry, Gold PTT or LDM hydration and soothing treatments will be much more comfortable than Agnes, as they are less irritating and selectively destroy sebaceous glands. The Cica moisturizer you are currently using is an excellent home care product, so please take a break from peeling agents or exfoliation for the time being and focus on moisturizing!

Will the blackheads around my nose be cleared up with a treatment like Lara Peel? Haha.[5]
CommentsI found that getting a procedure to clear nose blackheads is much more effective than squeezing them out at home. After getting an Aqua Peel, I noticed significantly less sebum coming to the surface around my nose. Since peeling treatments like Lara Peel are also said to help control sebum, I recommend showing them the condition of your nose during your consultation and trying it out. The results the next day vary depending on the intensity of the treatment; I received a light session, and there was almost no redness when I went to work the next day. Because your cheeks are dry, I suggest limiting the peeling area to just your nose, and receiving moisturizing or soothing care along with it will help you worry less about irritation!
