Local cleansing of acne A mixture of water or suitable cleansing products should be chosen to remove excess oil, dander and bacteria from the skin surface, but not to over-wash. Do not squeeze or scratch lesions such as acne and inflammatory papules} with your hands. Acne Daily Care Some acne patients have a damaged skin barrier, and long-term oral or topical anti-acne medications such as retinoic acid often aggravate the destruction of the skin barrier and lead to skin sensitivity. Therefore, in addition to medication, physical therapy, and chemical peels, it is sometimes necessary to use efficacious skin care products in combination to maintain and repair the skin barrier function. If accompanied by skin sensitivity, topical soothing and oil-controlling moisturizing creams should be used, and skin care products with anti-acne effects can be used on local lesions; if the skin shows symptoms such as greasiness and enlarged pores, oil-controlling moisturizing gel should be mainly used.
