First things first, happy New Year!
I am wondering if anyone else here experiences this "acne after sex" I guess?
Usually after my husband & I make love, I will rest my head on his arm or on his chest & then the next day/few days later, I have a flare up of little whiteheads on my right cheeks/left cheeks (they are usually in the same spot) or one medium sized pimple that will form on its own. It depends on what side I was lying on (if left side, left cheek, right side right cheek)...But it happens so frequently....I wonder if it's because of hormones.
It usually happens right when I'm PMSing (like right now)
I highly doubt that it's cold sores bc they will usually scar up from me popping them (I have a few acne scars from them) & won't shrink into nothingness like a cold sore...

It's probably just from sweating, no? Wash your face after you have intercourse and maybe that will clear it up.
Or maybe she's allergic to something, like his deodorant, lotion or aftershave?
That could be, too. But wouldn't that appear more in the form of a rash? She's describing pimples, which are typically formed by pores being clogged by dead skin, dirt, and sweat.
She could always consult a licensed dermatologist.

It's funny bc he NEVER gets acne if he puts his head on my arm/chest...NEVER! It's always me. Ugh, I hate being a woman sometimes...maybe it is his deodorant/body wash though....
