The condition you have commented about is called ‘maskne’ (acne caused by wearing a mask ). It is caused due to the constant friction and irritation by the mask
combined with the sweat and skin oils.
To prevent maskne, you can do the following:
– Choose a soft cotton fabric mask.
– If you’re using a reusable mask, wash it after every use and rinse thoroughly.
As for detailed advice according to your skin type and severity of the acne, we highly recommend you to consult with our dermatologist Dr. Prativa Shrestha first.
We do provide online consultation services for those who aren’t able to visit our clinic.
