Buy differin online from Pharmacy Online following a short online consultation with a medical professional.
Differin gel is different from other acne treatments. This topical treatment contains the active ingredient adapalene, rather than an antibiotic. It’s suitable for people suffering with mild to moderate acne.
How does Differin work?
Differin cream gel contains the active ingredient adapalene, a form of vitamin A which works by increasing the turnover of dead skin cells. By aiding the natural exfoliation of skin, it helps to unblock pores and sebaceous glands, reducing the appearance of blackheads and spots from appearing.
What is Differin cream?
Differin cream is another name for Differin 0.1% gel. Both work as a cutaneous treatment of mild to moderate acne.
Like all medicines, Differin can cause side effects. While not everybody will experience side effects, it’s important to be aware of them.
Side effects may include:
- Inflammation of the skin
- Skin burning sensation like itching, tingling, or stinging
- Skin redness
- Dry skin or flaky skin
- Sensitivity to sunlight
If you’re worried about your acne products stop treatment immediately and consult a medical professional.
There is always a risk of side effects with all medications. Some of these can be quite mild and can subside over time. Others are more serious and should be reported to your GP right away if you experience them.
Please contact a member of our team if you are concerned about any potential side effects that may occur when taking Differin.
If Differin isn’t suitable for your skin conditions, our online pharmacy has a range of other over the counter treatments and other medicines for treating acne.

How to use Differin anti acne gel?
For best results, apply Differin gel once daily, if possible, at the same time each day. Integrate it into your skincare routine.
Wash face, chest or back with mild soap or non drying cleanser. Pat dry. Apply a thin layer of Differin cream to clean, dry skin, and follow with your moisturiser.
Applying differin cream and gel more frequently than once a day will not get results faster. It will only result in dry skin irritation or cause a local skin reaction.
-
How long does Differin Gel take to work?
Differin Gel starts working immediately, however you may have to wait a few weeks for results to show.
Do not use Differin for longer than 12 weeks continuously without checking in with our online doctor service.
-
When is irritation most likely to occur?
Skin irritation (redness, itching, dryness, burning) is more likely to occur in the first few weeks of using this acne treatment.
You might also experience irritation if you use more than one topical acne product at a time.
Avoid contact with the eyes and mouth, and don’t apply the gel to broken skin.
Also, refrain from excessive sun exposure including sun lamps with artificial UV light while using this product, as they can increase skin dryness and irritation.
-
If I experience skin irritation, should I discontinue my acne treatment? What can I do to minimise skin irritation?
Skin irritation is a common, temporary reaction that will usually subside after about four weeks of use.
Applying Differin cream every other day, or using less of the gel can help to relieve irritation.
-
Can I stop using Differin Gel once my acne clears up?
For best results, you’re advised to continue using Differin Gel even after your skin looks clearer to help prevent future breakouts.
With continued use, Differin Gel will continue to reduce redness and inflammations caused by acne, prevent blackheads, and clogging of the pores.

Is it okay for pregnant women to use acne treatments like Differin Gel?
Differin Gel is a safe and effective treatment. However, as with any medication, it’s a good idea to check with a healthcare professional if you are pregnant, planning to become pregnant or breastfeeding.
