What should I do if my face is burned out due to excessive use of Adapalene gel?

If you accidentally overdose and cause skin discomfort or damage while using adapalene gel (Adapalene), we recommend the following measures:

1.Stop using adapalene gel: Stop using adapalene gel immediately and discontinue any other products that may cause irritation or damage to the skin.

2.Clean skin: Gently clean damaged skin areas with warm water and a mild cleanser or cleanser. Avoid using harsh cleansers or scrubs.

3.Avoid friction and irritation: Avoid wiping or rubbing the damaged area with a towel to avoid further irritation of the skin. Try to avoid using skin care products that contain alcohol or harsh ingredients.

4.Cold compress: If the skin is red, swollen or feels hot, you can gently apply a cold towel or ice pack to the damaged area to relieve inflammation and discomfort.

5.Moisturize: Use a mild, non-irritating moisturizing cream or lotion and apply it gently to the affected area to help the skin retain moisture and prevent further dryness.

6.Avoid sun exposure: Damaged skin is more susceptible to sun irritation, so avoid direct exposure to the sun and try to use sunscreen to protect your skin.

7.Medical consultation: If symptoms persist or worsen, or other unusual reactions occur, it is recommended to consult a dermatologist in time. A doctor can assess the condition of the skin and give more specific advice and treatment.

Following the steps above, and depending on your skin's recovery, can usually relieve skin discomfort or damage caused by excessive adapalene gel use within days to weeks. However, if symptoms persist or worsen, or you feel uncomfortable dealing with it on your own, it is important to seek the advice and help of a professional doctor.
