Tired
of unexplained nasty breakouts and facial spots? You can follow a good
cleansing routine and drinks tons of water every day, and yet, acne and
pimples can persist. It’s especially frustrating when the zits show up
just before a big interview of a special occasion…when you actually want
to look and feel your best! This is where skin mapping steps in. Skin
mapping is a form of skin analysis that can help you understand what is
causing these breakouts and other skin related conditions.
You may know how to mask these breakouts, but wouldn’t it be nice to eliminate them by finding the right treatment? The location of your breakouts can help determine the root cause of your pimples, and hence, make it a lot easier to seek out the right treatment. Skin Mapping studies the eight hot zones on your face, so you can do some detective work on your breakouts.
Pimples on the forehead indicate poor digestion and overworking toxins due to lack of water. IF you notice that most of your breakouts are concentrated in this area, start drinking more water throughout the day to flush out these toxins. Green tea and herbal teas also neutralize the effect of these toxins, so ditch coffee and become a tea drinker.
One of the most common breakout-prone area, the T-zone includes the nose and the forehead. Acne in this zone indicates liver dysfunction. Greasy, fatty foods may be the cause here, so stick with healthy food choices as much as you can! Another possible cause—too much alcohol. If you find fresh pimples here after a night out where you consumed a few drinks, this may be your issue.
The delicate skin in this area is connected to your kidney’s health. Conditions like dark under-eye circles, premature wrinkles and breakouts/rash in this area may indicate that you are dehydrated.
The upper cheeks are linked to the lungs. Pollution and smoke inhalation can cause breakouts here. However, this area is also prone to bacterial attack via your smartphone, which is why we recommend using fresh anti-bacteria wipes on your phone at least once a day. Sleeping on a dirty pillowcase can also be the culprit here.
Problems in your mouth can reflect on your skin here. Poor dental hygiene is a common cause. Reduce intake of sugary foods and sodas, brush your teeth regularly and don’t forget to floss. A healthy dental routine will improve any breakouts or dry skin patches in this area too.
Also linked to your kidneys, breakouts in this area indicate poor hydration and excess salt consumption. Externally though, leave in conditioners or hair oils that haven’t been rinsed out completely can also contribute towards breakouts in this zone.
This zone is linked to the small intestine. Diet changes can make a huge difference here. However, hormonal fluctuations can also cause pimples on the skin area. Also be sure you’re not resting your chin in your hands when bored or tired, as this can transfer oils from your fingers onto your chin, which can cause pimples.
Keep in mind, having a pimple or two in any one of these areas does not automatically mean you have a serious health issue. But if you have chronic acne that you can’t squash no matter how hard you try, it might be worth asking your doctor to look into a potential internal link revealed by face mapping.

Zone 1: The Forehead
Pimples on the forehead indicate poor digestion and overworking toxins due to lack of water. IF you notice that most of your breakouts are concentrated in this area, start drinking more water throughout the day to flush out these toxins. Green tea and herbal teas also neutralize the effect of these toxins, so ditch coffee and become a tea drinker.
Zone 2: The T-Zone
One of the most common breakout-prone area, the T-zone includes the nose and the forehead. Acne in this zone indicates liver dysfunction. Greasy, fatty foods may be the cause here, so stick with healthy food choices as much as you can! Another possible cause—too much alcohol. If you find fresh pimples here after a night out where you consumed a few drinks, this may be your issue.
Zone 3: Around the Eyes
The delicate skin in this area is connected to your kidney’s health. Conditions like dark under-eye circles, premature wrinkles and breakouts/rash in this area may indicate that you are dehydrated.
Zone 4: Top of Cheeks
The upper cheeks are linked to the lungs. Pollution and smoke inhalation can cause breakouts here. However, this area is also prone to bacterial attack via your smartphone, which is why we recommend using fresh anti-bacteria wipes on your phone at least once a day. Sleeping on a dirty pillowcase can also be the culprit here.
Zone 5: Lower Cheek Area
Problems in your mouth can reflect on your skin here. Poor dental hygiene is a common cause. Reduce intake of sugary foods and sodas, brush your teeth regularly and don’t forget to floss. A healthy dental routine will improve any breakouts or dry skin patches in this area too.
Zone 6: Around the Ears
Also linked to your kidneys, breakouts in this area indicate poor hydration and excess salt consumption. Externally though, leave in conditioners or hair oils that haven’t been rinsed out completely can also contribute towards breakouts in this zone.
Zone 7: On the Chin
This zone is linked to the small intestine. Diet changes can make a huge difference here. However, hormonal fluctuations can also cause pimples on the skin area.
