Keto and acne

I have been very successful in keto with weight loss. I have been adapting well to this WOE, but one thing that is not my skin.

I have not been prone to breakouts since I was a teenager. I was lucky in my late adolescence and was barely twenty years old and had almost no imperfections. Within a month of starting the keto, my chin has literally exploded with pimples under the skin. They take a long time to surface and have created many scars. Has anyone else noticed acne / pimples as a side effect of Keto? If so, how did you fight it? I have been using benzoyl peroxide ointment after washing my face at night. It has made my chin very dry and itchy!
