What are the common side effects of using Proactiv?
Asked a year ago
Common side effects of using Proactiv may include dryness, redness, irritation, or a slight peeling of the skin. These effects are typically mild and temporary, as the product is designed to promote skin cell turnover. Some users may experience a worsening of acne initially, known as a "purging" phase, as the active ingredients work to unclog pores. However, this phase should subside after a few weeks, resulting in clearer skin. It is important to start with smaller amounts of the product and gradually increase usage to allow the skin to adjust. If any severe or persistent side effects occur, it is advised to discontinue use and consult a healthcare professional.
