An acid peel for acne-prone skin
The innovative ProACNE Solution A.I Clearing Treatment has been specially formulated to reduce the appearance of acne, papules and pustules as well as to fade acne marks or acne scars.
It is suitable for all mild to moderate forms of acne and has a triple effect:
- The 10% Hydroxy Complex contains a highly effective combination of peeling agents − Glycolic Acid, Salicylic Acid and Polyhydroxy Acid – which help to resurface skin, unclog pores, reduce bacteria, remove dead skin cells and prevent new blemishes from appearing
The formula also contains Licochalcone A which has been proven to prevent acne recurrence and help soothe irritation.
Eucerin ProACNE Solution A.I Clearing Treatment starts to visibly improve skin after just one week, revealing clearer and smoother-looking skin over time.
Can be used during pregnancy but should not be used by skin undergoing medical acne treatment.

FAQ (10)
-
If I use the serum daily when can I expect to see an improvement?
If used regularly skin will start looking better after just one week.
-
Can I use the serum in addition to my normal moisturiser and, if so, which should I use first?
ProACNE Solution A.I. Clearing Treatment can be used alongside other care products such as moisturisers and anti-ageing treatments. We recommend that you use the Skin Renewal Treatment first and in the evening. If you use the Skin Renewal Treatment in the morning be sure to follow with a sunscreen such as Eucerin Sun Dry Touch Oil Control SPF 50.
-
I have both acne-prone and sensitive skin. Can I use ProACNE Solution A.I. Clearing Treatment ?
In principle, yes. But test the product first to ensure it is well tolerated by your skin. You can do this by using a small amount on a small area of skin and leaving it on overnight. If you experience a slight stinging sensation, don’t worry − that just shows that the product is working.
-
Should I introduce the serum slowly into my routine to help my skin get used to it?
We use a gentle combination of acids that makes the product suitable for use every evening from day one. As with all products, however, it is a good idea to test the product on a small area of your skin before applying it to your full face.
-
Can I use the serum alongside Benzoyl Peroxide, Antibiotics and acne treatments with retinoids?
We do not recommend using the serum while you are undergoing medical treatment for acne.
-
Do I need to use sun protection the day after applying this treatment?
We recommend that you use the product in the evening because its peeling effect will make your skin more sensitive to UV rays, and more prone to sunburn. And, even after evening use, it’s important you give your skin adequate protection from the sun the next day. We recommend Eucerin Sun Dry Touch Oil Control SPF 50 or Eucerin Sun Fluid Photoaging Control SPF 50
-
Can I use this product on holiday in very sunny areas?
If the weather is excessively hot we recommend you stop using the treatment. And always be sure to wear sufficient sun protection.
-
Why is the pH of the ProACNE Solution A.I. Clearing Treatment important?
The product’s pH plays an important role in its effectiveness and skin compatibility. ProACNE Solution A.I. Clearing Treatment has a pH of between 3.7 and 3.9. This low, mildly acidic pH is perfect for the role of this product as it increases its antibacterial effect and its ability to remove dead skin cells.
-
If my skin looks red in the morning should I continue using this product overnight?
If your skin appears irritated we recommend that you stop using the product. Then try reapplying the product every other day (in the evening only). If irritation persists, consult your dermatologist or pharmacist.
-
I’m over 30 and would like to use something that treats wrinkles. Is this serum suitable?
ProACNE Solution A.I. Clearing Treatment combines very well with anti-ageing skincare. We recommend that you use it, in the evenings, alongside Eucerin Hyaluron Filler Night.
