Acid refreshing, or chemical skin resurfacing, does not routinely cause breakouts after chemical skin resurfacing; most breakouts are related to existing acne that has not yet protruded from the skin surface, and may also be related to allergies. 1. Existing acne: Acne is a chronic inflammatory disease of the sebaceous glands, mainly manifested as pimples, papules, pustules, etc. The symptoms of acne will be more obvious when the local stratum corneum is thinned after acid treatment. This situation needs to continue to give dissolving keratin and anti-inflammatory drug treatment, such as topical adapalene gel, oral isotretinoin and so on. 2. Allergic reaction: Chemical resurfacing is the use of weak acidic chemicals to apply treatment to the skin, so as to achieve the purpose of removing the aging stratum corneum. Some people may be allergic to the chemical substances, which can be manifested as localized skin rashes and itching, and this situation requires symptomatic treatment with anti-allergy drugs, such as oral levocetirizine capsules. Due to the different skin type of individuals, the reaction after acid brushing treatment will also have great variations, the specific conditions need to go to a regular medical institution to ask a specialist for treatment.
