What is the likelihood for face acne to be an allergic reaction?
A doctor has provided 1 answer
Possible.: Some believe that some foods trigger acne, but the mechanism is not known. There are those who believe that fats in the diet and even milk can flare acne. You can clog pores with cream and makeup which are comedogenic and that can cause acne to flare as well. If it is caused by a food it will flare each time you eat it and within 24 hours.
