Benzac AC Gel (Benzoyl Peroxide)

Product Description: Benzac AC Gel or acne cream is a widely used and dermatologist-recommended acne treatment that contains benzoyl peroxide. It works by targeting the bacteria that cause acne and reducing excess oil production on the skin. It helps to treat existing acne and prevent new breakouts from forming. Available in various strengths (2.5%, 5%, and 10%), it’s suitable for mild to moderate acne.

 

Uses of Benzac AC Gel:

Acne Treatment: Effectively treats both inflammatory acne (pimples, pustules) and non-inflammatory acne (blackheads, whiteheads).

Oil Control: Helps in reducing excess oil on the skin, which is a common cause of acne.

Antibacterial Action: Kills bacteria, especially Propionibacterium acnes, which contributes to acne formation.

Skin Exfoliation: Aids in removing dead skin cells and promoting skin renewal.

How to Apply Benzac AC Gel:

Cleanse: Gently wash the affected area with a mild soap or cleanser and pat dry with a clean towel.

Apply: Squeeze a small amount of Benzac AC Gel onto your fingertips.

Where to Apply: Dab the gel onto the acne-prone areas of the face or body. Be careful to avoid the eyes, mouth, and other sensitive areas.

How Often to Apply: Start by applying the gel once a day, ideally in the evening. You may increase to twice a day (morning and evening) if the skin tolerates it well.

Moisturize: Benzoyl peroxide can dry out the skin, so it’s advisable to use a non-comedogenic moisturizer to prevent excessive dryness.

Sun Protection: Always apply sunscreen during the day when using acne treatments as they may increase skin sensitivity to sunlight.

Who Cannot Apply Benzac AC Gel:

Allergy to Benzoyl Peroxide: If you have a known allergy to benzoyl peroxide, avoid using this product.

Sensitive or Extremely Dry Skin: Those with very sensitive skin may find the product too drying or irritating.

Skin Conditions: If you have eczema, dermatitis, or any other skin condition, consult a dermatologist before using the product.

Pregnancy and Breastfeeding: Consult your doctor before using benzoyl peroxide during pregnancy or breastfeeding.

Warnings and Precautions:

Initial Irritation: Benzoyl peroxide may cause mild redness, peeling, or dryness initially. This is normal, but if irritation persists or worsens, discontinue use and consult a doctor.

Avoid Contact with Eyes and Mouth: The product should not come into contact with eyes, mouth, or mucous membranes. In case of accidental contact, rinse thoroughly with water.

Discoloration: Benzoyl peroxide can bleach hair, clothing, and towels, so avoid direct contact with these items.

Skin Sensitivity: Avoid using other acne treatments with benzoyl peroxide unless recommended by a doctor, as this may increase skin irritation.

Sun Exposure: Limit sun exposure while using this product, and always apply sunscreen during the day.

Who Should Not Use Benzac AC Gel:

Children under 12 years: Benzoyl peroxide is not recommended for young children unless prescribed by a doctor.

Individuals with Allergies: If you have an allergic reaction to benzoyl peroxide or any of its ingredients, avoid using it.

Those Using Retinoids: If you are already using prescription-strength retinoids or other potent acne medications, consult your dermatologist to avoid potential interactions.

How to Store Benzac AC Gel:

Keep in a Cool Place: Store the product in a cool, dry place, away from direct sunlight and excessive heat.

Keep out of Reach of Children: Ensure the product is safely stored out of reach of children.

Check Expiry: Always check the expiration date before using the product.

This product is for topical use only.
