Hi,
Acne can happen due to numerous causes.
It could be wrong products or cosmetics, diet, stress, oil, pollution, certain medicines and hormonal changes.
Since you have acne around your jawline, it is more likely to be hormonal ie pcos related.
But this can be treated. You can consult me for further treatment and evaluation.
Next Steps
consult through practo for treatment
Health Tips

wash face twice a day.
drink 3 lts of water
