Mine is on my cheeks, and between my breasts. I have lots of scars on my chest too, to go along with the hair!

Well, it used to be on my cheeks but now it's along my jaw line and on my neck. But I also get boils on my abdomen, under my arms and in between my thighs. I know how it is--I have lot of scars too!

Like sugarbug, I also break out right under my ears, and along my jawline. I also break out under my arms and on the inside of my thighs. Sometimes they turn really ugly and are painfull. Haven't found much that helps them at that point. If you have any suggestions, I would love to hear them.

Jawline, shoulders (I dunno what the freak is up with that), and a few on my back. Sometimes they will decide to migrate between my breasts but as for now I only have scars and hair there. Yah lovely I know. From bad to worse.

My back and chest are pretty bad. I hate it! Makes one not want to wear any of those nice low neck or low backed dresses!!
Also my checks, and jaw line. Don't you just LOVE it!

Default How do you know if they are cystic?

I break out mostly around the chin and jawline, and between the breasts. I too have some scars there. Is the scars a sign of PCOS? I never had pimple leave a scar before. I sometime get them under my ears too.

The jawline, here, too. And between my lip and my chin, or in that triangle under my eye next to my nose (those are the worst, I can see them!). I hate these darn things! I always feel like there's a huge thing hanging out on my face somewhere. Blech. And then the whole yucky popping thing. So glad to know I'm not alone!
