Differin Gel is a prescription-strength acne treatment formulated for individuals with mild to moderate acne.
Its active ingredient, Adapalene (0.1% w/w), is a retinoid derived from Vitamin A, which works by regulating skin cell turnover. This process prevents the clogging of pores, a common cause of acne.
Differin Gel treats existing acne by reducing inflammation and swelling and helps prevent future breakouts by keeping pores clear. It can be used on various body parts, including the face, back, chest, and shoulders.
Over a 12-week period, consistent use of Differin Gel has been clinically proven to reduce acne by up to 87%.
