Expert opinion
Dmitrieva Elena Yurievna
Gynecologist-endocrinologist, 40 years of experience
Clenzit is a relatively new drug for the treatment of acne, so it is not surprising that so much controversy has arisen around it. Professionals were divided into two camps. Some believe that Klenzit can only be used to treat acne, and the elimination of wrinkles has absolutely nothing to do with it, while others are confident that the active ingredient of the drug really triggers rejuvenating processes in the skin and argue that the scope of its use can be expanded. Until experts come to a common opinion, Clenzit for wrinkles should be used with caution; firstly, you must take into account your skin type, and secondly, you must not forget about possible allergic reactions.
Features of Klenzit S
To find out how Klenzit differs from Klenzit S , you can read the detailed characteristics of each of these products.
Clenzit C is most suitable for the effective treatment of a fairly large number of inflammations and comedones that have arisen, which were formed precisely as a result of the closure of comedones.
There are excellent components in the composition that will always help you stay on your feet for a long time.
It is important to consider here that any inflamed areas of skin significantly prevail over areas of completely healthy skin .
When your face is very covered in acne, but there is no inflammation, then this drug is completely unsuitable for you.
In this case , it is considered more appropriate to use the conventional drug Klenzint . It contains absolutely no antibiotics, which is why the medicine does not affect the skin microflora so quickly.
Release form
Clenzit is available in the form of a gel, ointment or cream, packaged in varnished aluminum tubes of 15 and 30 g. One tube along with detailed instructions for use is packed in a cardboard box.
Klenzit is available from pharmacies without a doctor's prescription . The shelf life of the drug is 3 years from the date of release.
The gel is more suitable for people with oily or normal skin, while the cream is best used for dry skin.
Klenzit S is an analogue of the drug in question, but differs from it in composition.
Klenzit contains only 0.1% adapalene, while Klenzit C, in addition to adapalene, contains 1% of another active substance - the antibiotic clindamycin, which is very active against various bacterial agents.
Therefore, Klenzit S is prescribed for the treatment of severe stages of acne and other complex skin problems . To treat wrinkles, you need to use Clenzit 0.1%.
Side effects and interactions with other medications
If you follow the instructions for use of the drug, then no unpleasant complications will arise. The only drawback may be an increase in the number of pimples or acne after the first use, but this is a completely normal reaction and it goes away quickly. This happens because the drug frees clogged pores from impurities, which, coming to the surface of the skin, cause new inflammation.
In some cases, an allergic reaction of the epidermis to the action of the active components occurs, which manifests itself in severe redness, itching, irritation and rash. If you notice such manifestations, you should stop using the drug and consult a specialist for advice.
It is not recommended to use the gel in conjunction with other external preparations containing alcohol or other drying components. This can lead to excessive drying of the skin. You should also avoid decorative cosmetics as much as possible: foundation or powder can be applied for no more than 3-4 hours a day, otherwise this will reduce the effectiveness of treatment. Clenzit acts by cleansing pores, and a layer of cosmetics on the face will significantly hinder the removal of impurities. If external preparations of a different effect are used that do not contain drying compounds, the interval between the application of two different products should be at least 6 hours.
Mechanism of action
It is known that wrinkles appear when such important elements of the frame as collagen fibers are destroyed. It is the deficiency of collagen that causes the skin to begin to wither and age.
IMPORTANT!
The mechanism of action of adapalene, which is part of Klenzit, is aimed at overcoming the epidermal barrier and restoring protein elements in the deep layers of the skin.
Thus, the action of Klenzit is carried out in two directions:
- cleansing the skin of keratinized scales and dead epidermal cells, which releases healthy and young cells;
- influence on the construction of collagen, which is necessary for skin elasticity.
Basic rules of use and how long to use

CAREFULLY!
The drug is not addictive and can be used for a long time.
Most often, it is prescribed for 1-2 months (3-4 procedures per month with a break of a week), but another course of treatment may be required. Therefore, the duration of use of Klenzit should be determined by a specialist. The first noticeable improvements in skin condition are noticeable after 3-4 weeks.
