Can Chlorine Cause Acne? by scottwilley91: 12:43pm On Jul 15 |
I've been wondering about the relationship between chlorine and acne. Recently, I've noticed some breakouts after swimming in chlorinated pools. Could chlorine be a factor? I've read conflicting information online, some suggesting chlorine can dry out the skin and exacerbate acne, while others say it can help clear it up due to its antibacterial properties. Does anyone have personal experiences or insights into this? I'd love to hear your thoughts or any tips on how to protect skin while enjoying swimming. If there are any dermatologist here, your input would be greatly appreciated! |

Chlorine in swimming pools can disrupt the skin's natural oils, potentially leading to acne breakouts in some individuals. To minimize this effect, consider showering immediately after swimming and using a gentle cleanser. If acne persists or worsens, consulting a trusted doctor in Cannon Hill could provide personalized skincare advice and treatment options. |
