All Aknederm products are designed and developed for long term use.

If your skin is very irritated, e.g. due to sunburn or allergy, the Aknederm Reinigungsschaum and Aknederm Tinktur sensitiv are excellent for normalising the skin.

The Aknederm products can also be used with products of other brands. However the best long term results are most visible when the products in the set are used together.

Whether your skin dries out depends on your skin type. The risk is higher with naturally dry skin than with oily skin. The Aknederm Tinktur sensitiv is ideal for this, as it contains less than 1 % natural alcohol.

If you are pregnant or breast-feeding, think you may be pregnant or are planning to have a baby, ask your doctor or pharmacist for advice before using this medicine. Aknederm Salbe Neu must not be used on the breast when breastfeeding.

Since Aknederm cosmetics may only be used externally, Aknederm cosmetics can be considered safe when used properly in accordance with the recommendations for use during pregnancy and breastfeeding (Aknederm cosmetics must not be used on the breast while breastfeeding).

We deliberately avoided using fragrances in the Aknederm products, so that they are also suitable for sensitive skin. The contained active ingredient shale oil has the characteristic smell due to its natural origin.

There is no age restrictuion for Aknederm cleansing foam and Aknederm tincure sensitive.

Please note that Aknederm tincture should not be used on children under the age of 3 years.

The ointment is one of the most commonly used means for local application to blemishes. Aknederm Salbe Neu contains neither perfumes nor essential oils, silicones, parabens or palm oil. We also do without aluminum salts and microplastics, which is why Aknederm Salbe Neu is both skin-friendly and environmentally friendly. The safety of our customers is always our top priority.

First off: We take the concerns that we are currently hearing from social media very seriously. But the allegation that Aknederm Salbe Neu is carcinogenic is wrong. We do not know of a single suspected case of cancer. And this despite the fact that our ointment has been used successfully for the local treatment of acne, pimples, blackheads and reddened skin for almost 100 years. The concentration of so-called PAHs (polycyclic aromatic hydrocarbons) in our product is also well below the limit value for consumer products set by the Federal Institute for Risk Assessment (BfR). Compliance with this limit value is also regularly checked. If you still have concerns, please ask your dermatologist or use Aknederm cleansing foam instead. If you would like further information on this topic, please do not hesitate to contact us.

Aknederm Salbe Neu is used successfully in the treatment of skin imperfections such as acne, pimples or blackheads. Aknederm Salbe Neu also has an anti-inflammatory and antibacterial effect on reddened skin in connection with inflammation of individual skin areas. By the way: Dermatologists rate the effectiveness and tolerability of Aknederm Salbe Neu as very good. We know that from a representative survey. If you would like further information on this topic, please do not hesitate to contact us.
