Hi! I’m a 34 year old female who has under the skin, skin colored bumps on both sides of my chin. I have done two courses of Accutane with the last course completed 3 years ago. I have had chemical peels, microneedling, facials, etc. The bumps are not that noticeable unless I am in direct sunlight. I have had a dermatologist do a biopsy and said it is “sebaceous hyperplasia.” An esthetician said it is scarring from old acne. Someone else said it looks like calcium deposits. What is it? Fix it!
