Differin Gel Adapalene 0.1% Acne Treatment 45g

Target Acne. Help Unclog Pores. Support Clearer-Looking Skin.

Differin Gel contains adapalene 0.1%, a topical retinoid used for acne treatment. It works by affecting the processes that contribute to clogged pores and acne lesions, helping reduce blackheads, whiteheads and inflammatory blemishes over time.

Unlike a conventional cosmetic spot treatment, Differin is an acne medication designed for consistent use across the acne-affected area. Follow the official product directions carefully, as excessive application can increase dryness, redness and irritation without improving results faster.

• Blackhead and Whitehead Care: Helps address comedonal acne.

• Helps Reduce Acne Lesions: Supports the treatment of existing acne with regular use.

• Once-Daily Application: Designed for a simple evening skincare routine.

• 45g Tube: Convenient packaging for the recommended treatment regimen.

Key Ingredient

Adapalene 0.1%

Adapalene is a topical retinoid that helps normalise skin cell turnover within follicles and reduce the formation of clogged pores. It is used in acne treatment to help improve blackheads, whiteheads and other acne lesions.

How to Use

1. Wash the affected skin gently with a mild cleanser and pat dry.

2. Apply a thin film of Differin Gel to the acne-affected area once daily in the evening, following the package leaflet.

3. Spread gently and evenly. Avoid the eyes, lips, nostrils and mucous membranes.

4. Wash your hands after application.

5. Use a gentle moisturiser to help manage dryness and irritation.

6. Apply broad-spectrum sunscreen during the day and limit excessive sun exposure.

Do not apply more than directed. Using extra product does not make acne clear faster and may worsen irritation.

When to Expect Results

Acne improvement takes time. Early dryness, redness, irritation or a temporary increase in visible acne may occur during the first weeks. Consistent use is important; the official label advises that results may take approximately 8–12 weeks.

Stop using the product and seek medical advice if severe or persistent irritation occurs.

Suitable For

• People seeking treatment for acne.

• Acne-prone skin with blackheads and whiteheads.
