Bionike Aknet Azelike Plus Cream 30ml

Bionike Aknet Azelike Plus is a targeted application gel treatment that helps eliminate existing acne signs and prevents future breakouts and potential scarring. Its advanced formula, featuring a blend of azelaic acid, a next-generation retinoid (HPR), and alpha-hydroxy acids, works on all components of acne: inflammation, bacterial proliferation, excess sebum, and abnormal keratinization. 

Benefits of Bionike Aknet Azelike Plus:

Ø  Eliminates Signs of Acne: Directly targets pimples, whiteheads, and blackheads.

Ø  Prevents Comedone Formation: Reduces the clogging of pilosebaceous follicles, which are the root cause of blackheads and whiteheads.

Ø  Controls Bacteria: Keeps the proliferation of Cutibacterium acnes (the bacteria responsible for acne inflammation) under control, preventing pro-inflammatory effects and biofilm formation.

Ø  Reduces Blemishes and Marks: Formulated to work on existing skin blemishes and helps with residual post-acne marks.

Ø  Regulates Sebum: Has strong sebum-normalizing (antiseborrheic) properties to control excessive oil production.

Ø  Keratolytic Action: Gently exfoliates the skin, removing dead skin cells and keratin plugs in the pores.

Ø  Non-comedogenic: Tested not to clog pores.

Ø  Soothes Skin: Azelaic acid provides soothing, anti-inflammatory properties, which can help reduce redness and irritation. 

Ingredient of Bionike Aknet Azelike Plus:

Key active ingredients include: 

Ø  Azelaic Acid: Regulates sebum, modulates keratinization, and has bacteriostatic and anti-inflammatory properties.

Ø  Hydroxypinacolone Retinoate (HPR): A new-generation retinoid that normalizes keratinization and helps reduce inflammation without the typical photosensitizing side effects of traditional retinoids.

Ø  Glycolic Acid (AHA): Provides a keratolytic (exfoliating) action, breaking down keratin plugs and reducing pore obstruction.

Ø  Succinic Acid: Offers keratolytic and antibacterial properties against C. acnes.

Ø  Azetrap System™: A unique lamellar structure that gradually releases the azelaic acid for prolonged efficacy. 

Uses of Bionike Aknet Azelike Plus:

The product is intended for topical use on seborrheic and acne-prone skin, including cases of mild to moderate acne characterized by blackheads, papules, and pustules. 

How to Use:

Ø  Cleanse the skin gently and thoroughly using a mild, non-aggressive product.

Ø  Apply the gel in a thin layer once daily, preferably in the evening.

Ø  Leave the product on overnight. 

Side Effects of Bionike Aknet Azelike Plus:

Ø  Tingling/Burning Sensation: A slight tingling or temporary burning sensation may occur upon application, depending on individual skin sensitivity. If it persists or is too strong, reduce the frequency of use or discontinue the product and consult a doctor.

Ø  Sun Exposure: Suspend treatment during periods of increased or intense sun exposure and use an adequate sunscreen (SPF protection) during the day, as alpha-hydroxy acids can increase skin sensitivity to the sun. The retinoid (HPR) in this formula is noted as non-photosensitizing, but the AHAs require caution.

Ø  Contraindications: Avoid contact with eyes and mucous membranes. Do not use on damaged or irritated skin.

Ø  Hypersensitivity: Do not use if you have a known hypersensitivity to any of the components.

Ø  Test Application: For particularly sensitive skin, it is recommended to test the product on a small area of the skin for 24 hours before full use.

Ø  Pregnancy/Breastfeeding: Consult a doctor before use during pregnancy or breastfeeding.
