  Facial dermatitis mainly manifests as recurrent erythema, rash, oozing, dry flaking, self-conscious itching, burning and stinging sensation on the face, which is prone to recurrent attacks and lasts for a long time, and patients are distressed by it, and even affects daily life and social life.  The onset or aggravation factors of this disease: 1, local skin barrier destruction, skin thinning; 2, local contact with dust, pollen, cosmetics, sunlight and other allergens; 3, local friction, drugs (retinoic acid, peroxymethylene, glucocorticoids, etc.), chemical peeling and other stimulating factors; 4, mental tension, fatigue and endocrine dysfunction and other systemic factors.  The details of daily life should be noted: avoid local massage and rubbing and washing with too hot water, or too frequent use of soap, facial cleansers and other skin cleansers, because these physical and chemical stimuli can change or damage the skin.

Try to use physical sun protection, such as using a visor-type sun hat, avoiding sunscreen stimulation, etc.  Avoid inappropriate use of skin care cosmetics. Due to the influence of frequent advertising in the media, many women friends blindly pursue novel or expensive brands, or superstitiously imported cosmetics, and some cosmetics and even unknown ingredients, cosmetics contain antigenic substances (such as fragrances, preservatives, pigments, etc.), determine the part of the user inevitably have a chronic allergic reaction to it, and it is not easy to attract attention, often using a considerable period of time before the symptoms will appear .

In addition, it is very important to insist on cold and wet compresses during treatment, as follows: use cold boiled water or pure water, or mineral water, or distilled water, wet 6-8 layers of gauze or towels, or disposable compressed mask paper, or cotton, etc., pick up to not drip as degree, apply to the local dermatitis, 15-30 minutes each time, wet compress 5 times a day in the acute phase, 2 times in the chronic phase.
