How long should you wash your face?
In general, facial cleansing is a routine for cleaning and maintaining the skin. The ideal duration varies from person to person. For individuals with normal or dry skin, it is recommended to wash the face for 2–3 minutes. For those with oily or combination skin, washing for 3–5 minutes is advised. For enhanced facial care, medical aesthetic treatments such as hyaluronic acid injections, chemical peels (using fruit acids), photorejuvenation (IPL), Thermage, and fractional laser therapy may be considered. It is recommended to visit a reputable hospital and choose appropriate treatments under the guidance of a qualified physician.
