Dermatologists warn of harmful effects of skincare routines

Dermatologists are concerned about the effects of certain skincare routines, according to Welingelichte Kringen. Reportedly, some products and methods can damage the skin barrier instead of protecting it. The source does not mention specific brands or ingredients but suggests that excessive use or incorrect combinations play a role.

The warning stems from observations in practice. Patients reportedly more often complain of irritation, redness, or sensitive skin after following intensive skincare regimens. It is unclear whether this is a widespread problem or mainly affects people with already sensitive skin.

The dermatologists emphasize that not all skincare is harmful. It is reportedly about excesses, such as using too many products, scrubbing too often, or combining active ingredients without professional advice. The source advocates a cautious approach and possibly consulting a specialist.

Welingelichte Kringen published the report without extensive substantiation or figures. It remains unclear how often such problems occur and which groups are most at risk.

This report is a summary based on the mentioned source and is not medical advice. Consult a doctor or pharmacist in case of complaints.
