Re: Acne around lips. Not cold sores.

Hey... I have the same problem. It breaks out for me in between my lip and nose; in the middle above my lip. It's been around for a while now, but when I was taking tetracycline, it disappeared. I had to stop it though because I was getting too fatigued (I play basketball a lot) while excercising and in less than a month (after a year of tet. use), it's back. I also was using benzoyl p. in the morning followed by cetaphil moisturizer and avita at night. Those are my only skin cleaning regimines as of right now, but they don't stop the break-outs in that area. I thought it could have been herpes too, but I got tested and the doctor didn't see anything... (But it does remain dormant in our bodies...) I thought it could've been my electric razor, but after extensive cleaning, I still break-out there. I'm lost too. I hate it. Sorry I wasn't the one to give you a solution, but if someone does give you one, I'll be right around the corner reading!!!
