PanOxyl Adapalene Gel 0.1% Acne Treatment 0.5 oz

PanOxyl Adapalene Gel 0.1% is a once-daily topical retinoid for the treatment of acne. Adapalene was previously available only by prescription -- this is the FDA-approved over-the-counter formula, making it one of the most sought-after US acne treatments for UK customers who can't access retinoids without a dermatologist referral.

Adapalene works by regulating skin cell turnover, preventing the build-up of dead skin cells inside the pore that leads to blackheads, whiteheads and inflammatory spots. Unlike benzoyl peroxide which targets bacteria directly, adapalene addresses the root cause of congestion at a cellular level. Results typically take 8 to 12 weeks -- consistency is key.

Why use it

• 0.1% adapalene -- FDA-approved OTC retinoid, previously prescription-only
• Targets blackheads, whiteheads and inflammatory acne at the source
• Once daily application -- simple to incorporate into any routine
• Oil-free and fragrance-free -- suitable for sensitive and acne-prone skin
• Dermatologist developed and tested
• Can be combined with a benzoyl peroxide wash for a complete routine
• Genuine US formula, stocked in the UK -- no customs, fast dispatch

How to use Cleanse skin gently and pat dry. Apply a thin layer to the entire affected area once daily. Do not apply more than once per day -- applying more frequently will not improve results and may cause irritation. Suitable for adults and children aged 12 and over. Children under 12 should consult a doctor before use.

Active ingredient: Adapalene 0.1%

Precautions: For external use only. Avoid contact with eyes, lips and mouth. Use sunscreen during the day as adapalene may increase sun sensitivity. If severe irritation develops, reduce frequency or stop use and consult a doctor. Keep out of reach of children.
