Adapalene Benefits

Even though Adapalene is new to acne sufferers who count on over-the-counter products to keep skin clear, it’s by no means a new acne treatment. It has been a celebrated acne-fighting ingredient for decades and has proven itself in clinical trials.

Adapalene can be used on the face and the first effects of Adapalene may be visible in just two weeks, but it may take up to 3 months of daily use for you to see consistent results.

Adapalene Side Effects

When first used, Adapalene can cause dryness, redness, and irritation for some individuals. This irritation usually lessens after the first 4 weeks of continued use, however. In some instances, acne may appear worse for a short time. If this occurs, you can try a gentle, non-comedogenic moisturizer, preferably one with sunscreen protection, to counteract the dryness. If irritation becomes severe (overly bothersome), stop use and ask a doctor before using the product again.

Finally, women who are pregnant or breastfeeding should consult a doctor before using Adapalene as an acne treatment.
