Persol 5% Benzoyl Peroxide Acne Gel - 20g Tube
Acne breakouts occur when trapped sebum, dead skin cells, and Cutibacterium acnes bacteria cause inflamed, painful pimples. Persol 5% Gel provides powerful, antibacterial topical therapy. Delivering 5% Benzoyl Peroxide directly into congested pores, it releases oxygen to kill anaerobic acne bacteria rapidly, while shedding dead skin cells and preventing future blackheads and cystic breakouts.
How to Use / Operate
Cleanse skin thoroughly and pat dry. Apply a thin layer to affected acne areas once daily initially, then increase to twice daily if tolerated. Wash hands after application.
