Severe Skin Issues and DIY Formulation Inquiry
Question
I have severe and complex skin problems including oiliness, dehydration, sensitivity, acne, and wrinkles. I also have a history of severe adverse reactions to skincare products, including recent issues with infection and lymph fluid after using a product.
I saw a doctor who diagnosed a skin infection and prescribed medication, but I stopped using it after 30 days.
Despite these issues and my history, I am looking for a DIY skincare formulation to address my multiple skin concerns. Can you provide a suitable formulation?
Answer
Based on the information provided and your history of severe skin reactions, including infection and lymph fluid, it is strongly recommended that you consult a dermatologist or medical professional before attempting to create your own skincare products. Your skin condition is complex, involving oiliness, dehydration, sensitivity, acne, and wrinkles, compounded by a history of severe adverse reactions to previous products.
Providing a DIY formulation in this situation is not advisable as it could potentially exacerbate your condition or cause further reactions. A medical professional can properly diagnose the root cause of your issues, identify potential triggers, and recommend safe and effective treatments or ingredients suitable for your extremely sensitive and reactive skin.
Prioritizing professional medical evaluation is the safest and most effective approach to managing your skin concerns and preventing future severe reactions.
