For example pimples that pop up sul nose and forehead would be a sign of response to the stress from our body while those that appear around the mouth could be due to the consumption of acidic foods that cause irritation.

CAUSES
The causes of the appearance of pimples can be different and should always be discussed with a dermatologist who can determine them with certainty. However, basically i pimples can have a bacterial origin, be one skin reaction to some products of beauty or cosmetics that you use, come in consequence of hormonal disruptions, be caused by aunregulated nutrition or finally appear due to strong stress.
Especially at a young age, the most frequent reason is linked to hormonal changes or, in some cases, to real diseases such as polycystic ovary syndrome. If you have very sensitive skin and you are not careful to buy quality beauty products then we can see pimples appear which however disappear when you stop using the offending cosmetic.

• Hormonal impairment
• Polycystic ovary syndrome
• Battery
• Contact with cosmetic or beauty products
• Contact with irritating acidic foods
• Stress
• Wrong power supply
