It’s not a zit, I bumped my head lol

not accutane but I do use a cleanser and moisturizer

so I’m a nw2?
LOL, sorry my bad. I need to be see a side view of each temple. But it looks like a mature hairline so more or less a NW2. How is your crown area?

I would say NW2. So far you are fine if you have been that way since a teen. And just like most people your right temple recedes slightly more than the left temple. That is the most common side to recede more on. Why I have no idea. It could be the way we sleep. Who knows?
Actually the top pic in my previous post which is my left side (from view if you were looking at me face to face) I think may or may not have been less receded than the right side, now it looks a little more receded like it evened out? I’ve been checking daily my entire life so it may be paranoia or may have just receded slow so idk. Can your hairline keep maturing in your 20s?

I would say they are receded almost the same if I closely look at it. I would say if you go beyond a NW2 level it's called male pattern baldness. Some say NW2 is the beginning and I wouldn't say they are wrong either. If you have the gene, you will get worse if not you might stay that way for decades. What is your family history?
