Epiduo Gel – Adapalene 0.1% Benzoyl Peroxide 2.5%, 45g
If you’re looking for a new acne treatment, you may want to consider Epiduo Gel. This gel combines two powerful ingredients – Adapalene and Benzoyl Peroxide – to give you proven results.
Adapalene is a retinoid that targets the skin processes that cause acne, while Benzoyl Peroxide works as an antimicrobial agent and helps to soften and peel the outer layer of the skin. Together, these two ingredients provide effective relief from acne symptoms.
So why wait? Speak to your doctor about Epiduo Gel today and see for yourself how well it works!
About Acne!
Acne is a common skin condition that affects most people at some point. It causes spots, oily skin and sometimes skin that’s hot or painful to touch.
Acne most commonly develops on the:
- face – this affects almost everyone with acne
- back – this affects more than half of people with acne
- chest – this affects about 15% of people with acne
There are 6 main types of spot caused by acne:
- blackheads – small black or yellowish bumps that develop on the skin; they’re not filled with dirt, but are black because the inner lining of the hair follicle produces colour
- whiteheads – have a similar appearance to blackheads, but may be firmer and will not empty when squeezed
- papules – small red bumps that may feel tender or sore
- pustules – similar to papules, but have a white tip in the centre, caused by a build-up of pus
- nodules – large hard lumps that build up beneath the surface of the skin and can be painful
- cysts – the most severe type of spot caused by acne; they’re large pus-filled lumps that look similar to boils and carry the greatest risk of causing permanent scarring
Acne is very common in teenagers and younger adults. About 95% of people aged 11 to 30 are affected by acne to some extent.
Acne is most common in girls from the ages of 14 to 17, and in boys from the ages of 16 to 19.
Most people have acne on and off for several years before their symptoms start to improve as they get older.
Acne often disappears when a person is in their mid-20s.
In some cases, acne can continue into adult life. About 3% of adults have acne over the age of 35.
