ABOUT ACNE
HOW PROACTIV® ACNE TREATMENT WORKS
Even though there's no acne cure, Proactiv's acne treatment treats skin safely and effectively by attacking acne at the source, where a build-up of dead skin cells and bacteria clogs your pores. It is strong enough to clear and prevent acne but gentle enough to use everyday.
[STEP 1] Renewing Cleanser
Tiny, smooth beads clear clogged pores and help remove dead skin cells. The benzoyl peroxide wash penetrates deep into the skin to attack acne-causing bacteria at the source.
[STEP 2] Revitalizing Toner
A gentle alcohol-free formula helps to balance skin tone and remove dead skin cells, while preparing the pore for the Repairing Treatment.
[STEP 3] Repairing Treatment
Finely-milled benzoyl peroxide penetrates deep into the pore to attack bacteria, heal existing blemishes, and prevent new ones from forming.
How to use Proactiv
Drs. Rodan and Fields explain how simple it is to use the Proactiv Solution 3-step acne care system. It just takes a few minutes every day.
The secret to clear skin
Proactiv's finely-milled medicines attack acne at the source to heal the acne blemishes you have now and prevent new ones from forming.
The Secret to Clear Skin
Mild enough to use every day, Proactiv gently cleans clogged pores. Then, the combination of medicines penetrates deep into your skin to destroy the bacteria and reduce inflammation. Your skin clears without the drying, peeling, or chemical smell you find in other acne products.
The Refining Mask – A Combination Therapy Breakthrough®
Our Combination Therapy acne treatment system combines finely-milled, prescription-grade benzoyl peroxide with sulfur and soothing botanicals like allantoin, panthenol, aloe, and chamomile. Together these ingredients in our acne products gently exfoliate your skin, unplug clogged pores, attack acne-causing bacteria, and soothe inflammation.
The Proactiv Difference
It's not just a spot treatment like most other acne products. Gentle and effective, the Proactiv acne treatment is designed to be used on the whole face (or acne-prone area) every day. Proactiv leaves your skin feeling healthy and hydrated, not dry and flaky.
