Popular Acne Medications: Pros and Cons
Benzoyl Peroxide
Pros:
-
Kills Acne-Causing Bacteria: Benzoyl peroxide effectively targets Propionibacterium acnes, the bacteria responsible for acne, helping to reduce acne breakouts.
-
Reduces Inflammation: It works quickly to reduce inflammation, making it ideal for cystic acne and more aggressive breakouts.
-
Quick Results: Benzoyl peroxide shows results relatively quickly, often within a week.
Cons:
-
Drying Effect: One of the most common side effects of benzoyl peroxide is excessive dryness. It can strip your skin of essential moisture, leaving it feeling tight and irritated.
-
Skin Irritation: If you have sensitive skin, benzoyl peroxide can cause redness, peeling, or a burning sensation.
- Stains Fabrics: Benzoyl peroxide can bleach fabrics, so it’s important to avoid contact with clothing and linens.
How Acne Commander Helps:
To complement the effects of benzoyl peroxide, Acne Commander’s Beorht Purifying Gel Cleanser contains salicylic acid, which works gently to exfoliate your skin and help keep your pores clear. This product cleanses deeply, helping to reduce bacteria and excess oil without over-drying the skin.
Salicylic Acid
Pros:
-
Exfoliates the Skin: Salicylic acid is a beta-hydroxy acid (BHA) that helps exfoliate the skin’s surface, unclogging pores and preventing the formation of blackheads and whiteheads.
-
Reduces Oil: It controls oil production, which is a major contributor to acne.
- Gentle on the Skin: Salicylic acid is less likely to cause irritation or redness, making it suitable for people with sensitive skin.
Cons:
-
Slower Results: Salicylic acid can take longer to show significant results compared to more aggressive treatments like benzoyl peroxide.
- Can Dry Skin: Although it’s gentler than other treatments, salicylic acid can still cause dryness in higher concentrations.
How Acne Commander Helps:
Our Beorht Ultra Clarifying Age Renewing Serum combines salicylic acid with niacinamide, a soothing anti-inflammatory agent. This combination works harmoniously to clear acne while preventing irritation and redness, making it ideal for sensitive or inflamed skin. The formula also contains Hyaluronic Acid, which keeps the skin hydrated, counteracting any dryness from the treatment.

Retinoids (e.g., Tretinoin)
Pros:
-
Speeds Up Skin Turnover: Retinoids like tretinoin help to increase the rate of skin cell turnover, reducing the likelihood of clogged pores and acne formation.
-
Helps with Acne Scarring: Retinoids are also effective for treating acne scars, helping to renew the skin and fade hyperpigmentation over time.
- Great for Severe Acne: Retinoids are often prescribed for more stubborn, cystic, or nodular acne.
Cons:
-
Initial Irritation: Retinoids can cause initial redness, peeling, and dryness. It’s important to start slowly and allow your skin to build up tolerance.
-
Sun Sensitivity: These medications increase sensitivity to UV rays, so sunscreen is a must.
- Not Suitable for Sensitive Skin: Retinoids can be too harsh for those with very sensitive skin, especially in higher concentrations.
How Acne Commander Helps:
Acne Commander’s Beorht Ultra Clarifying Age Renewing Serum contains retinol, a gentler form of retinoid, designed to promote cell turnover without causing the harsh side effects associated with prescription retinoids. This serum works to prevent future breakouts and improve the appearance of acne scars, giving your skin the best chance to heal.
