Key Benefits
Acnewin Plus 1% Face Wash 70 gm contains ‘Salicylic acid’ used to treat acne (pimples) by exfoliating the skin and keeping pores clear. It is an organic compound with an irritant, keratolytic (removes warts and calluses), comedolytic (inhibits the formation of blemishes) and anti-inflammatory activity. Acnewin Plus 1% Face Wash 70 gm reduces inflammation and unplugs blocked pores (whiteheads) or open pores (blackheads). Acnewin Plus 1% Face Wash 70 gm increases the upper layer of skin cells' turnover rate, which eventually helps in peeling the skin and treating comedones (skin-coloured, small bumps due to acne). Acnewin Plus 1% Face Wash 70 gm also has a mild drying effect that allows excess oils and dirt to be washed away from the skin. Acnewin Plus 1% Face Wash 70 gm is also used to treat skin conditions that involve scaling or overgrowths of skin cells, such as psoriasis (a skin disease in which red, scaly patches form on some body areas), ichthyoses (inborn conditions that cause skin dryness and scaling) and prevention of dandruff in the scalp area.
