Acunus Gel

Acunus Gel - Acne Treatment with Clindamycin & Nicotinamide

Introduction

Acunus Gel is a topical treatment designed for managing acne. It combines Clindamycin (1%), an antibiotic that targets acne-causing bacteria, with Nicotinamide (4%), a form of Vitamin B3 that reduces inflammation, improves skin texture, and controls oil production. This dual-action gel helps clear acne, prevent future breakouts, and soothe the skin.

Uses of Acunus Gel

Acunus Gel is commonly used for:

• Treating acne vulgaris (common acne) and preventing flare-ups.
• Reducing inflammation, redness, and irritation associated with acne.
• Improving overall skin texture and reducing the appearance of acne scars.

How Acunus Gel Works

Acunus Gel’s active ingredients work together to treat acne and promote healthier skin:

• Clindamycin (1%): A powerful antibiotic that targets and eliminates acne-causing bacteria, reducing the likelihood of future outbreaks.
• Nicotinamide (4%): A potent anti-inflammatory that soothes the skin, controls oil production, and helps minimize the appearance of acne-related redness and irritation.

Benefits of Acunus Gel

• Fights acne-causing bacteria effectively.
• Reduces inflammation and redness associated with acne.
• Improves skin texture and helps minimize acne scars.
• Controls oil production to help prevent new breakouts.
• Suitable for a wide range of skin types with minimal irritation.

How to Use Acunus Gel

• Cleanse the affected area with a mild cleanser and allow it to dry.
• Apply a thin layer of Acunus Gel to the affected areas once or twice a day, or as directed by your doctor.
• Allow the gel to absorb into the skin before applying any other skincare products.
• Do not apply to broken or irritated skin.
• For best results, use consistently over a period of several weeks as acne treatments require time to show results.

While Acunus Gel is generally well-tolerated, some people may experience mild side effects:

• Dryness, peeling, or flaking of the skin.
• Minor irritation or stinging sensation after application.
