This allergic reaction can vary from person to person, but common symptoms include, but are not limited to, the following:
1. Redness: Inflammatory responses caused by allergies can lead to redness of the facial skin, a common manifestation of allergic reactions.
2. Itching: Most individuals with allergies experience a sensation of itchiness on the face, with varying degrees of severity.
3. Swelling: Noticeable edema may occur on the facial skin, particularly when allergic symptoms are severe.
4. Dryness and peeling: The skin may become abnormally dry and even begin to flake or peel, which may be accompanied by mild to moderate pain.
5. Rashes or blisters: In some cases, allergic reactions can cause the formation of small rashes or fluid-filled blisters, especially during prolonged or severe allergic reactions.
6. Stinging or burning sensation: Some patients report sensations of stinging or burning in the affected area, which may be due to increased nerve sensitivity caused by skin inflammation.
The appearance of these symptoms is usually associated with facial skin exposure to allergens such as cosmetics, skincare products, pollen, and dust mites. Therefore, it is recommended to seek medical attention promptly when these symptoms occur.
