Skin care during dermatological treatment of acne should be gentle. It is worth consulting a dermatologist or beautician for individual care recommendations, as skin needs vary depending on the type of acne and other individual factors.
The pharmacist, within his competence, can propose over-the-counter cosmetics that may be beneficial in skin care during acne, when using Acnelec ointment:
1. Cleansing gel: It is worth choosing a gentle cleansing gel that does not contain strong detergents or skin irritants. Products with a strong drying effect should be avoided, e.g.
Cetaphil EM micellar washing emulsion: https://www.gdziepolek.pl/produkty/16826/cetaphil-em-emulsja-micelarna-do-mycia-emulsja/apteki
Avene Cleanance cleansing gel: https://www.gdziepolek.pl/produkty/100774/avene-cleanance-zel-oczyszczajacy-zel/apteki
2. Tonic: It is worth choosing a tonic without alcohol, which will help restore the pH of the skin and gently moisturize it.
La Roche-Posay Effaclar micro-exfoliating pore narrowing tonic: https://www.gdziepolek.pl/produkty/26236/la-roche-posay-effaclar-mikrozluszczajacy-tonik-zwezajacy-pory-plyn/apteki
Uriage Hyseac cleansing tonic: https://www.gdziepolek.pl/produkty/106820/uriage-hyseac-tonik-oczyszczajacy-plyn/apteki
3. Serum: Serum with hyaluronic acid can help maintain proper hydration of the skin, which is especially important since Acnelec has a drying effect. La Roche-Posay Effaclar Serum: https://www.gdziepolek.pl/produkty/108268/la-roche-posay-effaclar-serum-do-cery-tradzikowej-plyn/apteki
Uriage Eau Thermale Serum booster H.A.: https://www.gdziepolek.pl/produkty/120642/uriage-eau-thermale-serum-booster-h-a-plyn/apteki
4. Moisturizer: Choose a light-textured moisturizer that doesn't clog pores. Ingredients like niacinamide (vitamin B3) can help reduce inflammation. Heavy creams or oils should be avoided, e.g.: Bioderma Sebium Sensitive soothing cream for acne-prone skin: https://www.gdziepolek.pl/produkty/96172/bioderma-sebium-sensitive-krem-lagodzacy-do-skory-tradzikowej-krem/apteki

5. Sunscreen: A very important aspect during the Acnelec treatment is sun protection. It is worth choosing a sunscreen with a high SPF that will not clog pores. Pharmaceris A special cream SPF 100+ protection: https://www.gdziepolek.pl/produkty/101256/pharmaceris-a-krem-specjalna-ochrona-spf-100-krem/apteki La Roche-Posay Anthelios UVMune SPF50+ fluid: https://www.gdziepolek.pl/produkty/115463/la-roche-posay-anthelios-uvmune-spf50-fluid-koloryzujacy-z-filtrem-do-twarzy-krem/apteki
6. Masks and scrubs: Here it is important to avoid products that are too aggressive. Gentle cleansing masks or scrubs with mandelic acid can help remove dead skin. Dermedic Hydrain3 Hialuro enzymatic peel: https://www.gdziepolek.pl/produkty/22319/dermedic-hydrain3-hialuro-peeling-enzymatyczny-krem/apteki Avene Cleanance cleansing and exfoliating mask:
7. You should also avoid comedogenic products: cosmetics that can clog pores and cause blackheads. Check labels to avoid comedogenic ingredients such as coconut oil or lanolin.
8. Healthy diet and lifestyle: Please remember that diet and lifestyle play a vital role in skin health. It is also worth taking care of regular sleep and stress reduction.
