DONG-A PHARM Aclean Gel 20g
DONG-A PHARM Aclean Gel 20g
Unclogs pores and clears breakouts with precision—this viral bestselling K-pharmacy treatment from Dong-A Pharm is formulated with 2% salicylic acid (BHA) to target whiteheads and early-stage acne effectively.
Lightweight and fast-absorbing, this gel works directly on affected areas to reduce congestion while maintaining the skin’s natural balance.
Key Benefits
- Clears whiteheads & clogged pores with 2% salicylic acid (BHA)

- Reduces redness and surface congestion
- Targets non-inflammatory acne (e.g., whiteheads, small bumps)
- Lightweight, non-greasy gel texture with quick absorption
- Suitable for daily use on acne-prone skin
How It Works
