There are many causes of facial skin allergies, so it is best to go to a professional hospital for examination.

What to do if your face is swollen after allergies

Method 1

Stop using skin care products. Stop using existing skin care products and don’t apply any new skin care products at will. Sometimes applying anti-allergic skin care products on allergic skin may be worse than applying nothing.

Method 2

Avoid wearing makeup. Although your face will be red and swollen when you are allergic and you may not be able to see anyone, makeup products can easily aggravate allergies, so you should try to avoid them.

Method 3

Apply moisturizer locally. If your skin is too dry after washing your face, you can apply moisturizer to the drier areas of your skin. The moisturizer must be based on mild ingredients to avoid irritation.

Method 4

See a doctor depending on the situation. If the redness and swelling are too severe, it is recommended to see a doctor immediately. The dermatologist will prescribe topical steroid ointment or systemic antihistamine injection depending on the severity of the allergy.

Method 5

Avoid wind and sun. Strong wind and sun will further irritate the skin and make allergies worse. When your skin is allergic, try to avoid direct wind or sunlight.

Method 6

Increase ice compresses and avoid overheating. Hot temperatures will make the redness of allergies more severe, and using a towel soaked in cold or ice water for ice compresses can increase skin cooling and minimize skin redness, swelling, heat and pain.

Method 7

Use mild products to wash your face. Never use soap-containing cleansers. Choose some mild cleansers. If your skin is not easily oily, you can just wash your face with water.
