FRANCHDifferin (adapalene), 0.1% and 0.3% are acne medicines that can give you the positive results you are seeking. Differin is effective at clearing up pimples, whiteheads, and blackheads by clearing the pores of oil-blocking skin cells. It works to help skin cells shed normally rather than allowing them to accumulate in pores. Yet Differin is gentle. It's a light gel or cream that feels nice on your skin. It doesn't contain alcohol which can overly dry your skin and it isn't oily so it won't leave any greasy residue behind. The most common adverse reactions to Differin Gel or Cream, 0.1% were limited to mild or moderate irritation of skin. Severe cutaneous irritation occurred infrequently.  

Acne Formation and How Differin Works

Acne forms when hormones trigger an abnormal accumulation of skin cells and an overproduction of oil in skin pores. The pores (hair follicles) become clogged, forming a plug, enabling bacteria to grow. This may cause the follicle walls to rupture and inflame the surrounding areas. Although the exact mode of action of Differin is unknown, it is suggested that it may normalise the improper accumulation of skin cells, effectively treating acne by unplugging clogged pores and helping to keep them clear. In addition to its effectiveness and its low potential for skin irritation, Differin is a cosmetically elegant formulation; it is an odourless, oil-free, and alcohol-free Cream or Gel that is specifically formulated to meet the special needs of most acne patient's skin.
