There are many products in the market today – both OTC and prescription – that contain ingredients that can cause more damage to acne. Many so-called “skincare” products can cause adverse reactions, leading to dermatitis, allergic dermatitis, and acne cosmetica. Ingredients of skin care products range from emollients, humectants, surfactants, preservatives and fragrance; all of which can further irritate the skin.
It’s also important to note that because acne is a disease that has four specific stages, skin care products and medication must correspond to each stage. If only one product is used, it will cure acne only if, by chance, all acne falls into one stage targeted by that product. This is unlikely, and explains why some people find that they respond well to a treatment one week, and poorly the next.
