Some acne treatments, such as Acnesol gel (Clindamycin) and Brevoxyl cream (Benzoyl Peroxide), can cause skin dryness and dehydration, which may make fine lines and wrinkles appear more noticeable. Use a gentle moisturiser and apply sunscreen daily to keep your skin hydrated and protected, and avoid overusing strong products. If the problem persists, please consult your doctor or a dermatologist to review and adjust your treatment.

    • Use a gentle moisturizer to combat dryness. Consider reducing the frequency of acne treatments if irritation occurs.

  3. Strategies to address wrinkles alongside acne

    • Incorporate a non-comedogenic moisturizer with hyaluronic acid. Consider using a retinoid at night, but consult a dermatologist first.

  4. When to consult a dermatologist
