Differin Adapalene Gel

Differin Adapalene Gel is an over-the-counter (OTC) topical retinoid treatment for mild to moderate acne, working by normalizing skin cell turnover to unclog pores, prevent blackheads/whiteheads, reduce inflammation, and improve skin texture over time, with results typically seen in 12 weeks of consistent daily use. It’s oil-free, alcohol-free, and less irritating than older retinoids, but requires diligent sun protection and patience, as it can cause initial dryness or purging.
