Acnecide treatments, which use 5% Benzoyl Peroxide, effectively target the 3 main causes of acne: bacteria, clogged pores and excess oil. The latest Purifide product launch, Power Patches, are a 3-in-1 action designed to help visibly soothe and reduce spots as well as redness in just four hours.
The patches are placed directly on an emerging blemish to stop it in its tracks. Ultra-thin and invisible, they are packed with spot-busting ingredients such as Salicylic Acid which helps shrink the appearance of spots, Centella Asiatica (Cica) helps reduce redness and Canadian Willowherb helps soothe the skin.

Developed by dermatologists, our medicinal products include 5% Benzoyl Peroxide, an active ingredient which is effective in combating the bacteria that causes acne.

During the first weeks of treatment a sudden increase in peeling will occur in most people. If severe irritation occurs, patients should be directed to temporarily discontinue use. If treatment is then restarted, patients should be directed to apply the product less frequently and discontinue use altogether if irritation occurs again. Acnecide may cause swelling and blistering of the skin. If any of these symptoms occur, medication has to be discontinued. Treatment should be discontinued, and medical advice sought if scarring occurs or if there is no change or a deterioration in the patient’s condition. Patients should be advised that excessive application will not improve efficacy but may increase the risk of skin irritation.

Caution should be exercised when applying the drug to the neck and other sensitive areas. Sunlamps should not be used and deliberate or prolonged exposure to sunlight or UV radiation should be avoided or minimised; patients should use protective sunscreen and wear protective clothing when this cannot be done. Contact with any coloured material including hair and dyed fabrics may result in bleaching or discoloration. Due to the risk of sensitisation, Acnecide should not be applied on damaged skin.
