Accepted Answer

: If the sensitive skin is not due to allergy, topic anesthetic such as lidocaine ointment/cream 4% OTC can be used. If the skin irritation and rash are due to allergic reaction, you can try hydrocortisone 1% OTC but a stronger formula with prescription may be needed.

Question 8

how to prevent acne? i get breakouts when i'm in the sun. and i can't use benzoyl peroxide as it irritates my skin. please help

Accepted Answer

Ideas: If you cannot tolerate benzoyl peroxide, your physician will probably offer you topical clindamycin. This is likely to give you a good result. If you can use the oral contraceptive pill, it may clear you. Your physician has other remedies as well. Talk with him/her also about a good sunscreen.

Question 9

is it good to use vitamin e oil ( 1 time on face) for mild acne-prone skin ? does it clog pores and can breakout more? ( m using it 4 light redness )

Accepted Answer

Vitamin E and Acne: This is where the benefits of vitamin e oil on acne come into play. Vitamin e is a natural moisturizer, so applying it to the acne after it begins to clear up can help smooth over the skin and rebuild new skin cells to repair the damage. Vitamin e alone cannot do anything to treat acne. Only an antibacterial agent can do that.

Question 10

why does my skin breakout during the winter but not during the summer?

Accepted Answer

Sun: The sun has a suppressive effect on acne, blue light helps acne. However the sun causes more whiteheads to form which can become inflammed amd turn into acne.
