Product Description

Benzac AC 5% Gel is a potent formulation containing Benzoyl Peroxide 5%, specifically designed for moderate to severe acne. It works by penetrating deep into pores, eliminating acne-causing bacteria (Cutibacterium acnes), and removing excess sebum and dead skin cells. This dual mechanism reduces inflammation, prevents clogged pores, and supports overall skin renewal.

Its lightweight, fast-absorbing formula is suitable for daily use without leaving a greasy residue. Consistent application improves skin tone, fades post-acne marks, and provides noticeable results within 1–2 weeks.

Indications & Uses

  • Acne Treatment: Eliminates acne-causing bacteria and prevents new breakouts.
  • Post-Acne Recovery: Fades acne scars and reduces redness.
  • Oil Control: Regulates excess sebum to maintain skin balance.
  • Anti-Inflammatory Relief: Reduces swelling and redness from inflamed acne.
  • Exfoliation & Renewal: Removes dead skin cells for smoother skin texture.

Benefits & Effectiveness

Benzoyl Peroxide 5% provides dual-action efficacy: antibacterial activity against acne bacteria and keratolytic exfoliation. This makes it highly effective in treating stubborn, moderate-to-severe acne, reducing both active lesions and preventing future outbreaks.

Directions for Use

  • Cleanse skin with a gentle, non-comedogenic cleanser and pat dry.
  • Apply a thin layer once daily, increasing to twice daily if tolerated.
  • Avoid eyes, mouth, and broken skin. Rinse thoroughly if accidental contact occurs.
  • Use a moisturizer to reduce dryness.
  • Always apply sunscreen during daytime use.
  • Consult a dermatologist for personalized treatment advice.

Storage

  • Store at room temperature (15–30°C), in a cool, dry place.
  • Keep tube tightly closed after each use.
  • Avoid high-humidity storage (e.g., bathrooms).
  • Keep out of reach of children.

Possible Side Effects

Common:

  • Mild irritation, redness, dryness, peeling

Occasional:

  • Burning or stinging sensation, increased sensitivity to sunlight

Rare but Serious:

  • Severe allergic reaction (rash, swelling, difficulty breathing)

FAQs

Benzac AC 5% Gel is used for treating moderate to severe acne by eliminating acne-causing bacteria, reducing oil production, and preventing clogged pores. It also helps reduce redness and improve skin texture.
The active ingredient, Benzoyl Peroxide 5%, works by penetrating deep into the pores, releasing oxygen that kills acne-causing bacteria (Cutibacterium acnes). It also exfoliates dead skin cells and reduces excess oil, preventing new breakouts.
While Benzac AC 5% Gel primarily treats active acne, its exfoliating properties can help fade post-acne marks and promote smoother skin texture with consistent use.
Cleanse your skin and pat dry before applying a thin layer of the gel to the affected areas once daily. Gradually increase to twice daily if needed and tolerated. Avoid sensitive areas like the eyes, mouth, and nostrils.
Common side effects include redness, dryness, peeling, or mild irritation at the application site. These effects are usually temporary and subside with regular use. If severe irritation occurs, discontinue use and consult a doctor.
Most users notice visible improvements in acne within 1-2 weeks of consistent use, with optimal results appearing after 4-6 weeks.
It is recommended to consult a dermatologist before combining Benzac AC 5% Gel with other treatments like retinoids or salicylic acid to avoid over-irritation.
Benzac AC 5% Gel is a high-strength formula and may not be suitable for very sensitive skin. Start with lower concentrations (e.g., 2.5%) before using this product.
Avoid excessive sun exposure and always use sunscreen during the day, as the gel can increase skin sensitivity. Avoid applying it to broken or inflamed skin.
Yes, dryness is a common side effect. Use a non-comedogenic moisturizer alongside the gel to keep your skin hydrated.
Store it at room temperature (15-30°C) in a cool, dry place, away from heat and direct sunlight. Keep the tube tightly closed after use.
If severe irritation, swelling, or a rash occurs, stop using the gel immediately and seek medical advice.
Yes, Benzac AC 5% Gel can help reduce bacterial inflammation associated with hormonal acne, but a comprehensive treatment plan may be needed for severe cases.
People with allergies to Benzoyl Peroxide or those with excessively dry or peeling skin should avoid this product unless advised by a doctor.
Yes, Benzac AC 5% Gel can be applied directly to individual pimples for targeted treatment, but it’s generally more effective when applied to the entire affected area.
