Patient's Query

Hi doctor,

I am planning to use sunscreen. I am 18 years old and have not yet exposed my skin to any chemical products. I have combination skin. Would there be any consequences like acne breakout or pore enlargement if I suddenly start using these products? I have no idea about what to use either. Please help, doctor. Thank you.

Hi,

Welcome to icliniq.com.

There are varieties of sunscreen available in the market, based on the skin type. For normal skin types, you can use Solasafe SPF 50 and Rivela SPF 50. You need not worry about acne or any other significant issue with these products. You might feel some dryness that can be managed with some moisturizer before the application of sunscreen. Hope this was helpful. Thank you.
