PEROLEN GEL is to treat adult acne.This lightweight gel is a prescription-only acne gel that will help control moderate to severe acne flare ups and breakouts — including ones on your back. It has two main active ingredients that help control the skin inflammation and keep your spots from reoccurring.
PEROLEN GEL contains adapalene, which is a synthetic retinoid. It works to reduce the growth of keratin surface skin cells that can block pores. When adapalene is applied to an affected area, it will help unblock the pores and sebaceous glands, allowing the sebum to escape. This will decrease the redness, swelling and inflammation associated with acne. PEROLEN GEL also contains benzoyl peroxide, an antimicrobial medicine designed to kill the bacteria that can lead to acne symptoms. It also helps promote skin turnover, which will further help clear blocked pores and reduce the bacterial count on the skin’s surface. It is effective at treating blackheads, whiteheads, and inflamed red spots. Combining both these ingredients in a single treatment will help provide an effective means of treating and controlling mild to moderate symptoms of acne. PEROLEN GEL has been clinically tested and approved for both short and long-term acne treatment.
