Why You Shouldn't Use A Wash Cloth

Acne management in Chico, Sacramento, Grass Valley, Auburn, Tahoe, Corning, Willows, Red Bluff, and Redding is available through 916 Acne, Skin & Wellness Clinic. 530.680.2027.

Patients involved in the 916SKIN - Clear Skin Program are often on an aggressive treatment plan. Cleansing your face with even the softest of wash clothes can be over stimulating. For reasons do not use a wash cloth when cleansing your face:

#1) Wash clothes harbor bacteria.

#2) They can shed skin prematurely. #2) They can shed skin unevenly.

#3) They can remove too many layers, making skin more sensitive to your home care system, which can lead to irritation, dryness, and potential set backs in your acne management.
