New Research in Acne treatment will increase results and tolerability
New research in acne treatment indicates that the antioxidant Resveratrol (Skinceuticals) inhibits the bacteria responsible for the acne breakouts.
When combined with benzoyl peroxide it enhances the bacteria-killing ability of the drug.

The two products, Resveratrol and Benzoyl Peroxide added to cultures of skin cells and blood cells showed a sustained bacterial growth inhibition.
