A:Answer The razor does a nice job giving me a close shave without having to shave for a long time. If you are acne prone, I have a feeling you will want to consider washing your face after you shave, to be on the safe side. That being said, I'm not aware of any electric razor giving people acne. I know that men with very curly hair can suffer from acne type issues (sorry I don't know the correct term) when they save because the hairs, when cut short, will grow back into the skin. I don't know a lot about that, just that it happens.
