I'm an 18 year old that has always suffered from acne but never this bad. I'm on the implant so I don't know if it's the birth control rejecting me or not. It swarms my neck and jawline. What should I do?

You should review your symptoms with your doctor to determine if any hormone tests are warranted, they may be able to try topical treatments before recommending the implant be removed.
