How To Use
Start with 3 times a week in the evening for the first two weeks and then gradually increase to daily in the evening. Adapalene causes sensitivity to the sun and sunscreen (at least SPF 50) must be used and exposure to the sun limited.
Adapalene causes purging and so the acne may get worse before it gets better. Significant results expected after 12 weeks of use.
