Skin break out and Pfizer vaccine - related?

Had my second Pfizer jab yesterday at midday. By the time I went to bed, I noticed that my face (which is usually very clear) had broken out in some spots on one cheek and my forehead. Today more spots have appeared and I now have a breakout that I haven't seen since my teenage years! Curious to hear if anyone has had a similar reaction? Could they be related do you think? I'm hoping it's just temporary if it is!

Yes I had the same reaction to my first moderna jab. Have just had my second and I can feel some appearing....

I’ve had two AZ doses and had a chin acne breakout after both. Hormones and the immune system are linked and I think this is the cause.

@SonnetForSpring interesting, thanks for the reply. I'm hoping your skin cleared up fairly quickly? 🤞🏻

@Minta85 I didn't know that! That would account for the breakout if they're related...

It took a few weeks but I'm sure its different for everyone. Hope yours clears soon.
