I know that a question about why the photon is massless already exists, however it did not answer this question.
First off, I do understand why the photon does neither have a bare mass term due to gauge invariance of the standard model lagrangian nor does it get mass from the Higgs mechanism.
However as far as I understood it particles generally can get loop corrections to their mass (e.g. possibly generating neutrino masses). Since I am not really familiar with this mechanism I would like to know why there seem to be no loop corrections to the photon mass. Do they cancel out or am I just missing something obvious.
I'd also appreciate a link to a review-paper or book chapter dealing with this.
