Because acne treatments are so diverse and can both be ingested and applied externally, you should know exactly what you are putting in or on your body when it comes to acne treatment. Side effects and other "undesirable" variables are some of the complications you may run into.
Unfortunately, many acne treatments create a multitude of complications.
Allergic reaction is one such complication. Some acne victims are allergic to various ingredients in acne treatment products. Often they do not know about this allergy until they find out first hand through using the product and calling back their doctor and asking why they are having trouble breathing or have broken out in a strange rash.
Obviously, this can have serious consequences for many unfortunate individuals. After all, they only wanted to get their acne treated, but they end up with a new problem or symptom.
The most common side effects are flaking, redness, and inflammation of the skin. This happens when the many chemicals in acne treatments ignite a bad reaction and over-dry the skin, depriving it of any moisture and hydration. This often yields the dry flaking effect, while the redness and inflammation could be caused by a mild allergy associated with the treatment.
Remember, it's up to you to consider all the options and research any medication you take over the counter or are prescribed. This cannot be emphasized enough, as it is your skin and ultimately your health.
Don’t take any unnecessary risks just because you believe, or are told by a pushy physician, that you have no other option. Be informed about the acne treatment you are about to purchase. And don’t let acne cost you more than it already has.
