Using aloe vera on the face helps in making the skin healthy, glowing and blemish-free. But, do you know that if this aloe vera is used excessively then it can cause great harm to your skin.
Experts say that always use aloe vera in the right quantity, but at the sign of any problem, stop using it immediately. Here we are going to tell you about some of the disadvantages that can occur due to excessive use of aloe vera.
Those who have Aloe Vera plant in their house often use Aloe Vera two to three times a day. Whereas if aloe vera gel is used in excess, it can cause irritation, redness, or swelling in the skin of some people. Especially, those who have sensitive skin should avoid excessive use of aloe vera gel.
Patch test is very important before using anything. In fact, aloe vera can cause allergies in some people, causing itching, rashes, or skin rashes. In such a situation, while using aloe vera excessively, it is important to do a patch test so that there is no possibility of allergy.
People think that aloe vera retains the moisture of the skin, but if excess aloe vera gel is used, it can cause dryness in the skin. This can affect the skin’s natural moisture, especially if the gel contains other chemicals along with the aloe vera.
Using aloe vera in large amounts for a long time may, in some cases, change skin color or cause dark spots (hyperpigmentation). In such a situation, use it only after consulting an expert.
