Question 3

How long does it take a Duac Gel to work?

Accepted Answer

Most people begin to see improvement with Duac Gel after 2-4 weeks of consistent daily use. However, full results may take up to 8-12 weeks, depending on the severity of your acne. Be patient and use it consistently as directed by your dermatologist.

Question 4

Is Duac Gel good for hormonal acne?

Accepted Answer

Yes, Duac Gel can help treat hormonal acne by reducing bacteria and inflammation. However, it doesn't address the underlying hormonal imbalance. It's often used alongside other treatments, like hormonal birth control or oral medications, especially in adult women. Talk to your dermatologist to find the right combination for your skin type and hormonal profile.

Question 5

Can Duac Gel 100% remove acne scars?

Accepted Answer

No, Duac Gel won’t completely remove acne scars, as no topical treatment can guarantee 100% scar removal. However, Duac helps treat active acne and may reduce the risk of new scars by preventing breakouts, and may improve the appearance of dark marks over time.

Question 6

Will acne come back after stopping Duac Gel?

Accepted Answer

Yes, acne may return after stopping Duac Gel. While the treatment reduces oil, bacteria, and clogged pores, it doesn’t cure acne permanently. Once you stop using it, the underlying causes, like excess oil and bacteria, can come back. To help prevent breakouts from returning, continue using this gel as prescribed or talk to your doctor about a long-term skincare plan.

Question 7

Is Duac Gel safe to use long-term?

Accepted Answer

Duac Gel is usually prescribed for short- to medium-term use, typically up to 12 weeks at a time, because it contains the antibiotic clindamycin. Long-term use can lead to antibiotic resistance or skin irritation. Always follow your doctor's instructions, as stopping too soon can also cause acne to return.
