Skin care products are a must after washing your face every day, such as applying some water and lotion. Some people may have noticed that many of the skin care products we use contain salicylic acid. Salicylic acid can effectively remove dead skin cells, but it is not very effective for closed comedones. Therefore, when we choose skin care products, we should base it on our skin condition, and salicylic acid skin care products should not be used for a long time. If any adverse reactions occur, they should be stopped immediately. Salicylic acid is commonly used in skin care products as a keratin softener or acne prevention and treatment agent. Several medical reports have pointed out that when used, local skin erythema, itching, and stinging may occur. Large-scale or long-term use may cause the "salicylic acid effect", resulting in tinnitus, dizziness, nausea, vomiting and other phenomena. In order to use salicylic acid products safely, warnings need to be included on such products. The dangers of salicylic acid in skin care products: Many well-known skin care products now contain salicylic acid. The Department of Health has announced that skin care products containing salicylic acid must be labeled with a warning. The government has warned the public not to use salicylic acid for a long time, and children under three years old are not allowed to use it either, because long-term and large-scale use of salicylic acid may cause side effects such as tinnitus, dizziness, and vomiting. There are many derivatives of salicylic acid, including aspirin, which is used to relieve fever and pain. If you have a chronic keratinization disease and must use salicylic acid for a long time, or if the use area reaches 30% of the body, you must be particularly careful about the salicylic acid effect. For general skin care, using a small amount should not cause side effects. Salicylic acid is easily absorbed by the human body. Long-term use by patients with chronic keratinization may change the body's pH value and cause adverse reactions. Salicylic acid is widely used. Eczema, psoriasis, acne, and dandruff may all be treated with salicylic acid. Some businesses name it "B softening fruit acid", but they are actually salicylic acid. The general concentration of medicinal salicylic acid is 5~10%, and the concentration for removing corns and warts is 40%, and the concentration in skin care products is below 2%. People who are allergic to salicylic acid, children under three years old, diabetes or poor blood circulation are contraindicated in taking salicylic acid. Salicylic acid can only be used externally. It is best to avoid contact with the eyes, face, reproductive organs and mucous membranes. Do not apply to moles or birthmarks. |
