Adapalene works directly on processes within the skin that contribute to blocked pores and acne lesions.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eAcne is a common skin condition that can affect teenagers and adults.

Regular use can help manage existing acne and reduce the development of new lesions over time.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eAdiff Gel should not be confused with a standard cosmetic moisturiser or spot cream.
