  What Do Exfoliating Mean? How to Exfoliate?

  1. We can use drugs with exfoliating effects, such as retinoic acid cream, tazalotene gel, adapalene gel, salicylic acid ointment, urea ointment, and so on. These products help promote the aging of the stratum corneum, speeding up the rate of cell renewal, and improving the pores so that the skin recovers to a flat and smooth state.

  What's New About Acne Medication Side Effects

  Common clinical retinoic acid preparations include retinoic acid (1st generation), tazarotene (3rd generation), and adapalene (3rd generation). Common adverse reactions are exfoliation, erythema, dryness, burning or itching, and the severity is dose-related. Among them, tazarotene is the most irritating, and about half of the patients who use it daily have local skin irritation symptoms; adapalene has fewer adverse reactions and is highly tolerated by patients. In addition, external use of retinoic acid will increase the sensitivity of the skin to ultraviolet rays, so it is necessary to use sunscreen in daily life. Symptoms of retinoic acid-mediated skin irritation tend to be self-limiting, generally peaking in the 4th week after dosing, and then gradually improving. When benzoyl peroxide and salicylic acid are used in combination, retinoic acid-mediated adverse reactions, such as exfoliation and erythema, are exacerbated. Mild skin irritation reactions such as erythema and scaling may occur locally, accompanied by tightness and burning sensation, which can be gradually tolerated over time. It is recommended to discontinue the drug if the irritation reaction is severe.
