Hydrocortisone benefits for skin?

[blanquita444]

I saw this older black woman on tiktok talking about how she uses topical hydrocortisone every day without consulting her doctor for 10 years and she had pretty good skin, i was wondering some of the benefits and if i should try using it? are ebony people less likely to get bad side effects from hydrocortisone use, like does race have anything to do with it? cuz im european passing. also does it help with acne or does it just give you a better skin barrier? does it weaken or strengthen uv damage? thanks

It'll thin the skin and weaken the uv barrier yes water

I don't see the benefit for skin when used long term

I see this happen alot where people say a certain product is amazing but it's literally just their good genetics

It's only good for skin conditions for short term use

Only use it if prescribed

It can actually cause acne depending on skin type and where its applied

Why would you use hydrocortisone for skin? You’ll just thin your skin. That’s why people use it for nose.
