Side effects of Accutane
Accutane is the best acne treatment. It has several possible side effects, but they are nearly all manageable with dermatologist-recommended over-the-counter skin products.
Sunburn Care
A sunburn is the skin’s reaction to too much ultraviolet (UV) radiation. Prevent sunburns with sunscreen or sun-protective clothing, but if a sunburn does happen, there are things you can do to help it heal quicker.
Dry lips (Chapped Lips)
Dry lips can be very frustrating - they can crack, bleed, and constantly peel. Often, we want to lick our lips more frequently, but this can make it worse. Some over-the-counter products can be very helpful for this.
Stasis dermatitis
Stasis dermatitis (a.k.a., venous eczema) is very common in older adults. It is dry, itchy skin on the shins, ankles, and tops of the feet. Our leg veins get tired, lose their strength, and get leaky. Leg swelling stretches and makes gaps in the skin causing eczema. Treatment includes compression, leg elevation, moisturizing, and topical medications.
