Q: Beard Pimples Problem, Please Help :(((

Hello. I have 18 years. Before 2 years,my first beard appeared. It began on my chin and upperlip. Soon I started shaving. Very soon after I developed, sometimes big, sometimes small, kind of acne on my face, where ever my new hair was growing.
For a year, my chin beard is fully developed and I don't have acne there, as well as on my upper lip and the skin down to the neck. But I have, I don't know if they are acne for sure, on my cheeks.
I don't shave against the grain, I tried electric shaver also, I eat a lot of fruits, and drink a lot of water,but nothing seemed to help me.
I have this condition for 2 years now and I want to finally stop it. I sometimes get a lot of new dots, sometimes not so much, but they are always here.
The beard on my cheeks is a lot weaker then the one on the upperlip and on the chin.

I feel depressed sometimes.... :(

please help me if you can,
axel.

I posted a reply for your other posting...
I just wanted to say that getting pimples after shaving is very common in men. It seems that you have sensitive skin... I'm a woman so I obviously can't relate to shaving a beard :wink: but in any case, I can at least give some advice--
. Change your razor blade frequently .I have to also when I shave my legs.
. Do not store your razor blade in the shower, as it is very humid environment and causes the blade to get rusty and dirty. You should put it in your room instead.
. Maybe you need a shaving cream for sensitive skin?
. Talk to a dermatologist and maybe get a prescription for antibiotics or a strong cream.

I hope this advice helps!
