Face Mapping For Acne
ฝัง
- เผยแพร่เมื่อ 31 พ.ค. 2020
- Face mapping for acne can be extremely helpful when you are trying to determine what is the cause of your acne. Every bump or papule on the face is NOT acne and therefore wont respond to acne treatment. For example tiny bumps on the forehead can actually be Pityriasis Folliculitis aka Fungal Acne and best responds to antifungal medicine like Nizoral. A common cause of acne that involves the hairline is pomade acne. Pomade acne results from hair products. Enlarged oil glands on the forehead can result in another acne mimicker called sebaceous hyperplasia.
Small bumps under the eyes can be milia or syringomas.
Breaking out on the nose with papules and pustules may actually be rosacea which responds well to azelaic acid. I recommend The Ordinary or the Inkey azelaic acid as they have a good strength of medication and are inexpensive.
Small bumps located around the mouth are frequently perioral dermatitis. The most common culprit is Fluorinated toothpaste and comedogenic make-up. Chin strap acne can result from athlete gear and greatly improves with proper hygiene and Benzoyl Peroxide. And Lastly Acne like papules, pustles and cyst on the neck in the beard area and neck may be Pseudofolliculitis Barbae (PFB). The best treatment for PFB is laser hair removal. Sulfacleanse will help to keep flairs at bay. Acne skin mapping can help you better understand why you are breaking out in certain areas and the best treatment options. A trip to the dermatologist will best help to fine tune any acne regimen that is not responding to the above treatments.

You are beautiful! We needed a brown skinned dermatologist on here!!! Thank you 🙏🏽
Yes!!!
*a black dermatologist
@Nevaeh Figueroa no. are u tryna silence black voices now 🤨
@@Aisha-vd8ss an original woman ** black and brown are the same, were moving forward in unity, not going backwards like the colonizers divided us to be
@@amberleexangeles oh ok, so separating blk ppl into “dark,light and brown” isn’t divide, u not even blk so…, and u talm bout original woman is backhanded, and ‘causing divide’, take ur own advice
Really informative. Don't know why she has few little likes.
Thank you so much for your support!
People don't want to do the work for scan they rather cover it up with makeup so they focus on covering up not doing the work Thank you so much Dr Alexis This was so informative helpful
🇬🇭🇬🇭🇬🇭🇬🇭🇬🇭
Knowledge is power🤯
This is so good! 😩 I LOVE that you had the acne/bumps on Black and Brown skin. I literally could cry. I can actually identify what the HECK my skin has goin on! Thank you for this!
This!!!
Also her saying "edges" and not hairline really made me feel confidence in her
Very much this!!!!
I absolutely love how you discuss how these skin conditions appear on different skin tones. In academia many skin conditions are only shown on pale skin. You’re a true gem in the dermatology field!
Wow. You are simply amazing. A black dermatologist helping with black skin. You are so needed in this world! Thank you and bless you
Please talk more about hormonal acme thank you so much very informative
I am 15 and I have a passion for skin and I want to become a dermatologist. Can you do a video on how you got your degree? And what classes you took. What school you went to ect.? It would really help!!💕
YES PLEASE!!!
Love the face map take !!! This is super helpful. She has a great concept and this video refreshes the genre of dermatology.
YOU ARE ABSOLUTELY THE G.O.A.T. OF DERMATOLOGY!! Thank YOU for your help. May GOD continue to bless you and yours.
Thanks again for sharing some of your extensive knowledge in a way that we non-medical folks can easily understand. I've watched dozens of your videos and have learned so much. Thank you!
What an amazing video !! Thank you so much for talking about what acne or breakouts look like on darker skin tones, having a black dermatologist on youtube providing such amazing information is great!
This has helped me so much. I've had bad breakouts on my cheeks and this video (plus your video on diet and acne) helped me realize that dairy was the culprit! I started eating it more since quarantine started and my cheeks have been breaking out ever since. I've now switched to oat milk and only eating cheese on occasion (less than once a week). My face has calmed down significantly... Thank you so much for you videos!
I het acne/breakouts because of dairy. My skin looks/Gers better when i don’t eat/consume it.
Thank you so much for breaking it down. You have been busting all the myths I believed about skincare and I am so grateful for it!
I’ve done a lot of research on why I kept breaking out on cheeks and nothing was as informative as this video! Thank you for taking the time to explain 😭. New subbie 🥰
This is so underrated. So much information in one video. Thank you so much 💕
I've watched a countless videos on your channel (some more than once) over the past couple of weeks and I must say that this one has been my favourite! I watched it with a mirror in hand and assessed each area of my face as you went through the map... It was so informative and eye opening! Thank you so much for sharing your knowledge and expertise with us.
I’ve watch ever video😍😍😍😍😍 how can we support you to continue this wealth of knowledge that you are providing??👏🏾👏🏾👏🏾
So so helpful❤️. I’ve NEVER seen photos of rosacea on dark skin.
Wow!!! Thank you for educating us for free...thank you thank you omg May God Jehovah bless you for your kindness...you were not obliged to do those Videos but still you did....I'm so grateful....I've been listening to you for the past 4 hours and I've learn so much in that period of time than in the past 8months...thank you so much!
Love your work! Amazing content Dr. Stephens!
Really informative and I love how inclusive you are of skin colours
Excellent informative video👍🏾thanks Dr Stephens
Just found your channel absolutely love you! Amazing video so informative!!! Thank you!
I'm a jamaica living in France. learning a new language is hard. I love you your video
I really can't thank you enough, I have been struggling with pomade acne for sometime now and I just realised that it began after I started sealing my hair with pomade/grease.
So for one I am soooo excited that TH-cam recommended you during Black History Month! I am here for an Educated Queen! I also have been having crazy breakouts on my cheeks and couldn't figure out why. Apparently the milkshakes I treat myself to are the culprit lol! You have a new subscriber in me and i'm excited to watch the rest of your videos!
I am soooooo happy I found your page! Loving the content!
This was very informative. This is the info I needed to make some changes. Naturally if I don’t see improvements I’ll be making an appointment with a dermatologist. Thank you love 💖
Instantly removed my hand from my chin when she said it was one of the causes 😅😅.
I can watch and listen to Dr. Alexis talk all day 😍😍
I just purchased squalene and I was looking for a moisturizer that included oleochemicals acid to help with my hyperpigmentation, but now I see these are comedogenic. Ugh! Thank you for the very detailed information! ❤️
I’m loving your channel! 😩👏🏽🏅👩🏾⚕️
Extremely helpful !! Thank you
😳 wow! I learned a ton! Thank you, thank you so much. Love your channel.💕
OMG this is the best video EVER. You're so smart, so good.
I'm so happy I found you! Job well done!
This was an excellent video - you are a great teacher!
very informative. Love this. Especially because my husband has the pseudo barbe type of acne and the whey protein one. Will makes changes for this. thank you
Thank you so much, Dr. Stephens!
This is so informative! How did I not see it before??
Hi, Dr....I think a follow up to this would be which cleansers work best for the given skin diagnosis one ma be experiencing. More specifically explaining the difference between the over the counter active ingredients BENZOYL PEROXIDE, GLYCOLIC ACID and SALICYLIC ACID...
THANKS IN ADVANCE
AND THANKS FOR YOUR GREAT WORK
Thank you so much! I am loving your videos.
this video was amazing! this deserves more views
Thank you so much for all the information!
Will definitely book an appointment
Thank you Dr.Alexis,it’s such a very informative video❤️❤️❤️
This was a huge help! Thank you 💕
Thanks for this video! The information is very helpful 😊
Question: I have avoided laying down my baby hairs ever since I started puberty to avoid acne due to the hair products. Have you figured out what hair product to use to lay down your baby hairs without then leading to major acne? Even if my conditioner touches my forehead or temples (no matter which product I use), I always get clogged pores galore! Thank you for the content!
Super super helpful! Thank you so much! I have lil bumps on my nose so I will definitely update my skincare routine!
So happy to help!
So informative! I always wondered why people said that chocolate made their skin breakout🤔
Your channel is so good!
amazing. thank you so much for all you do
Amazing video. Thank you 💕💕💕
This is so helpful, thank you!
Thank you Doc!! This is gr8 information👌❤🤗
My skin broke out after getting a depo shot. This is so helpful
Thank you Dr. this was very helpful 👋🏿
Thank you! This was very helpful 🙂
Thank You So Much!
I have been searching the internet for months, trying to figure out what is wrong with the skin on my forehead.
Now I Know... Sebaceous Hyperplasia.
Thankfully mine are really small. And now I know what they are. I'm going to do my best to keep them that way. But I have gone from having 3 to about 7 in the last 12 months. On me they are about 2 mm to 4 mm wide. slightly raised, bubbly yellow circles, with a dent / hole in the middle. I hate them! I just want my forehead to be smooth. Note: I'm over 40, have super oily skin. And although I no longer spend any time in the sun. From childhood to late teens I was in the sun every day in summer.
Another problem I have is on my right cheek. My skin looks like cracked earth. You couldn't tell me what that is could you?
Thank You Again!
It’s really useful information! Great video!
Thanks so much! Glad you found it helpful!
Great info!
Thank you, btw, is one of the comedogenic ingrediets Isostearyl Isostearate? Cause I bought non-comedogenic tinted sunscreen from Bioderma, but it's still causing me to break out around the mouth and has this suspicious ingredient. Thank you for what you're doing!
My cousin is 11 and had milia for 3 years I think. My aunt brings her to a esthetician and she treats it. It’s now not as bad as it was a few years ago, but she had so many under her eyes and cheeks.
This is brilliant! Thank you
Love this. Thank you so much xx
What are some gentle face cleansers for sensitive, acne, oily skin? I love Cetaphil but it irritates me.
just discovered your channel.....i love your videos, thank you for the information
This was very insightful !!
I have a lot of cystic acne on my cheeks and I don’t put my phone on my face nor sleep on a dirty pillows, taking steroids or any other thing mentioned😥and I have been treating it since March, it has reduced but hasn’t gone completely 😰
You’re a genius
Yes i was wearing a durag
Yes i had sebaceous hyperplasia AND you reminded me I used to use differin n it worked
THANK YOU.
if possible, can you make a video on good hair covers to use to prevent acne. I think because the durag was so close to my skin, it was just absorbing all the oil and spreading it on my face
As a transgender person, I am definitely having some hormonal acne. I'll just have to wait it out I guess 🤷🏽♂️ This video was very helpful and informative! 👏🏼👏🏼
@@Faith-sh5jm thats cool✌🏼
Omg I need to travel to Fla to visit you
Pls more videos, Never subscribed this fast before 😁.
This is bet vid I’ve seen so far thank you
This was amazing thank You
The heat wave that happened a few weeks ago alongside with wearing a mask for over 8 hours made my chin area go crazy irritated and bumpy.
Great video! Is it wise to use tazarotene for a long period of time for acne?
You really helped me with the issue I had
This is super helpful
DR! based on the picture you showed. I believe have the Sebacious Hyperplasia (combined with Male Patterned Baldness) - ive seen two dermatologist, and NONE OF THE two...every said those words, or made mention of a machine. - What type of machine is it? Does the machine therapy work long-term?
I really like the information in the video, but the sound was weird and the information is sometimes cut out because of the split-screen. It made it hard for me to read/see some of the information shared.
Your so pretty you look like SZA and thanks for the information🤍🤍🤍
She does !!
What are your thoughts on Witch hazel?
Thank you sm I use steroid creams bc of eczema and got acne bumps on my face but now ik why tysm ♥️
Can you please do more on acne on the nose ? I’ve been dealing with bad acne on my nose for years :(
I have bad habit of sleeping with on my hands and I do touch my chin and side of face a lot..my acne shows up there except occasionally hormonal acne...I bought white cotton gloves to wear at night..real cheap on Amazon and that has help a lot plus using several suggestions from Dr Alexis...I am 56 but Not in menopause yet so I stlll dealing with hormonal acne a lot more than when I was younger. Any suggestions for pre menopausal or in menopause who are still having issues with hormonal acne ?
Thanks my problem is hormonal acne , but can’t go for Dr. can you suggest some supplements to cure these hormones pls
For hormonal acne which products are good to fight inflammation? Thank you in advance 😊
Your voice 🧡
Hi Alexis! Thank you so much for this video, it's very helpful for me.
I'm not sure about ditching the fluorinated toothpaste though because it strengthens my dental enamel and thus helps preventing cavities... :(
And I have a question about acne from taking vitamin b12 (pills, injections,...). I'm vegan so I have to substitute my B12 to stay healthy but I have observed that it makes my skin break out and I've also heard it from others. Do you know anything about the science behind that?
I'm so glad I found your channel!
If this doesn't get answered by Dr Stephens or you don't have access to a doctor right now, there's this small article from Mixed Makeup about it. Google "b12 acne mixed makeup". It seems that it's understudied but just some people either are more sensitive to all kinds of shots (b12 or flu shots or meds) and just gets more pimples, or there's one kind of acne bacteria that can get grow more rapidly with overdosing on b12. Since our bodies hold onto b12 for few years so it might seem that they're not going away no matter what too. Well I'm not a licensed dermatologist this is just what I've found while looking into it some time ago.
Also, yeah, as my every dental hygiene studies lecturer and professor would say no cutting out on fluorinated toothpaste unless you don't have teeth or direct diseases. And any sort of pimples or dermatitis around the mouth only tells us that the person is putting probably 2x or 4x the needed amount of toothpaste. The right amount (pea size anything more than that is excessive) of toothpaste won't truly get out of mouth, also if one avoids SLS in toothpaste it's more likely not to touch anything beyond parts of lips, etc. To cut out fluorinated toothpaste might end up way more regrettable and worrisome than few dots around the mouth.
I thought I had oily skin so I used la roche-posay foaming face wash and now have dry patches on skin. Especially near around my mouth.Does that mean I have dry or combo skin.
Haha I have been having some acne on my cheeks and I have been using steroid creams on my cheeks. Good to know!!. I am learning so much thank you for all this great info!!
Hi doc I have acute adult acne which is mild .I was prescribed adaphalene "Differin" cream. Is there an alternative for me to buy or must I always pay consultation to be prescribed adaphalene or is there a similar retanoid cream that I can buy over the counter? Please ❤️ and thank yous
This really helped🥰thank you for this🤍
Please can you address blackheads! those things are frustrating!
Thank You!!!
I have concluded that dairy and lifestyle/touching my face must be the culprit. Though I have cut out cow's milk completely, I still occasionally eat cheese and butter.
How often do we have to change our pillow case
How do you get rid of papular scars on the nose ?? I've had them since high school & I'm now 27 😣
