👉 Accent pimples, also known as perioral acne, are a type of acne that primarily affects the skin around the mouth and chin area. They occur when bacteria, dead skin cells, and oil clog pores in this region, leading to inflammation and the formation of small, red, swollen bumps. Unlike typical acne that affects the T-zone (forehead, nose, and chin), accent pimples are more localized to the perioral area. The presence of an accent accent can exacerbate these pimples, making them more noticeable and potentially causing discomfort. Treating accent pimples often involves a combination of gentle skincare routines, topical treatments, and sometimes oral antibiotics to manage bacterial growth.
