Description

Faceclin Gel is a topical anti-acne formulation that combines the antibacterial action of Clindamycin with the anti-inflammatory and skin-healing benefits of Nicotinamide (Vitamin B3 derivative). This gel is widely used for treating mild to moderate acne, controlling pimples, reducing redness, and preventing new breakouts.

  • Clindamycin (1% w/w): An antibiotic that inhibits the growth of acne-causing bacteria (Propionibacterium acnes), reducing skin infection and inflammation.

  • Nicotinamide (4% w/w): A form of Vitamin B3 that helps reduce redness, swelling, and oil secretion while promoting skin barrier repair.

This unique combination not only clears acne but also improves skin texture and appearance.


Uses of Faceclin Gel

  • Treatment of acne vulgaris (pimples, pustules, blackheads, and whiteheads)

  • Reduces inflammation, redness, and swelling associated with acne

  • Helps prevent new acne lesions

  • Improves overall skin texture by reducing post-acne marks


How it Works

  • Clindamycin: Stops bacterial protein synthesis, thereby preventing acne-causing bacteria from multiplying.

  • Nicotinamide: Works as an anti-inflammatory and antioxidant agent that reduces sebum production, calms irritated skin, and supports skin healing.

Together, they provide a dual action: fight acne-causing bacteria and soothe inflamed skin.


Dosage & Application

  • Wash and dry the affected area before applying.

  • Apply a thin film of Faceclin Gel to the acne-affected areas once or twice daily (as prescribed).

  • Avoid contact with eyes, nose, mouth, or broken skin.

  • Wash hands after application.

  • Consistent use is important for best results; improvement is usually seen within 6–8 weeks.


Possible Side Effects

Common (mild and temporary):

  • Skin dryness or peeling

  • Redness or itching

  • Burning or stinging sensation

Uncommon/Rare:

  • Severe allergic reaction (rash, swelling, difficulty breathing) – discontinue and seek medical help

  • Persistent skin irritation


Warnings & Precautions

  • Pregnancy & Breastfeeding: Use only if recommended by a doctor.

  • Sun Exposure: Minimize sun exposure; use sunscreen if outdoors.

  • Other Topicals: Avoid using harsh skin products (like scrubs, astringents, or alcohol-based products).

  • Consistency Required: Acne treatment takes time; do not discontinue suddenly.
