Description
Differin Gel – Adapalene Gel, 45g
Introducing Differin Gel: the perfect solution for acne-prone skin. This unique gel contains the active ingredient adapalene, which has powerful anti-inflammatory properties that reduce soreness and irritation. It’s specifically designed for use on the face, chest or back, and is ideal for areas where the skin has lots of blackheads, spots and pimples. And because it’s only absorbed into the body in very small amounts, it has little effect on other areas of the body, making it a safe and effective treatment option. So if you’re looking for a safe and effective way to treat acne, look no further than Differin Gel. Speak to your doctor about Differin Gel.
