The MediBac Clearing® system works to treat, clear and prevent adult acne while addressing the needs of adult skin. Most products and treatments for acne are designed for teenage skin, making them too harsh and irritating for adult acne sufferers. MediBac Clearing® controls acne without compromising skin’s integrity, which means skin is clearer and healthier.
Dermalogica’s MediBac Clearing® system is formulated specifically to treat adult acne. Each product, with its unique acne-fighting and clearing ingredients, is designed to be layered upon the skin to provide around-the-clock, maximum control of the main factors that contribute to acne.
I saw a recommendation from a famous makeup artist on YouTube along with the gentle exfoliant and figured I would give this a try. I started getting bumps on my forehead since being pregnant 6 years ago. 3 babies later I haven't found a way to get rid of them until now. This product really works! I bought extra bottles for me and a family member. This doesn't make my skin flake which has been an issue with other products in the past.

I have trusted this product for the pass 10 years, and I will continue to use what works! I'm a Texas girl and with our hot & humid weather the clearing gel works overnight for a flawless face.

I had very mild adult acne. I previously used R&F products but stopped. I was told about dermalogica products after receiving a facial. I began with the kit. My face worsened and I was told that it was probably because the products were pulling more from my pores than other products. I ordered even more products to attempt to clear my breakouts, and now my face is even WORSE! I've spent entirely too much money on products that are not helping my face at all! Very upsetting...

I started using this product about 3 weeks ago. I was really hoping that it would help clear up my skin but it has made it worse. I had break outs in my jawline and now I have large breakouts on my cheeks and jawline. I really wanted to give this a full month but I am just embarrassed to go out in public.

I was in desperate need of a new spot and all over face breakout solution because I did not like my old one from a different brand and because I was out. I bought this and fell in love with it! My skin is oily all over except for my forehead. So, I breakout along the jawline, chin and cheeks due to stress, hormones, oil and sometimes bad food choices like sweets, too much dairy, ect. For those little breakouts, this product works great for treatment and overnight care. I love the idea of hyaluronic acid in a breakout treatment, it helps to not leave the skin dried out while still eliminating the breakout.

Although I really loved the first one that I've tried the medicated clearing gel. I wonder why the change. Are they almost the same except for the new scent and tea tree added?

This really does clear your skin up. After 2days even large cystic acne is clearing up. It speeds up the process of getting your face back to a beautifully clear face. Love this product. It's one of Dermalogica's best!

I have acne prone skin and as suggested by my beautician I had purchased the overnight clearing gel. I regret for wasting money on buying this product because it did nothing to my skin. I felt I got more acne. I had so much belief that my acne would go down but this product did not meet my expectations.

I was given a sample of this from a salon that uses dermologica. I have very dry sensitive skin everywhere apart from my chin which is oily and I get lots of spots. I have used this product only on my chin and it's been great at drying out the spots I already have but it has also drawn out some large spots. Will this stop if I continue to use this product? Some guidance would be great!

I love how 'overnight clearing gel' helps with spot treatments while I sleep. This product did NOT over dry my skin.

Hello Lisa, Thank you for your interest in Dermalogica. Please do not use this while pregnant due to the Salicylic Acid. You may like Breakout Control. Breakout Control is an acid-free spot treatment that is non-drying. However, it is very effective. Apply a thin, clear layer to breakouts. Use it under moisturizer, morning and night. Kind Regards, Bernadette

Hello, This is a hydrating gel. There is no need to apply moisturizer on top since it hydrates the skin on its own. It should be applied to areas with acne only. If you have a full face of acne, you can apply it to the entire face. Kind Regards, Bernadette
