  • What is Acnecide Spot Treatment

    Acnecide Spot Treatment (otherwise known as Acnecide Face Gel) is specifically designed to treat mild acne on the face. Unlike other Acnecide products where they can be used on the chest and back, this product can only be used on the face. This product contains the active ingredient benzoyl peroxide which targets the specific bacteria known as Propionbacterium, which is the main leading cause of acne. Do not use this to treat anything more severe than mild acne which can be differenciated as mild acne appears only as blackheads and whiteheads with little to no spots.

If your skin remains more severely irritated you should stop treatment and let your skin go back to normal before restarting treatment once a day.
    5. If you get severe skin irritation at any time whilst using Acnecide Face Gel you should stop the treatment. If your skin does not recover after stopping treatment you should seek a doctor's advice.
    6. Using a moisturiser after application can help to reduce any irritation the treatment may cause.
