| Reported effect | How often | Notes |
|---|---|---|
Mild transient irritation or stinging | Uncommon | More likely on compromised or sensitive skin. |
Allergic contact dermatitis | Rare | Sensitization possible due to fermentation byproducts or residual proteins. |
Acne flare/comedogenic reaction | Rare | Varies by overall formulation rather than the filtrate itself. |
Reactions in individuals with yeast sensitivity | Very rare | Theoretical concern given yeast-derived origin. |
