Acnelec (containing adapalene) is a medication used mainly to treat acne. Its main ingredient, adapalene, is a vitamin A derivative (retinoid) that helps regulate skin cell renewal and reduce inflammation.
Although Acnelec is primarily used in the treatment of acne, adapalen also has anti-aging effects. Retinoids such as adapalene can accelerate skin renewal, stimulate collagen production, and reduce the appearance of fine lines and blemishes.
Thus, Acnelec may have some anti-wrinkle properties, but this is not its main use. If the goal is wrinkle prevention, drugs with retinol or tretinoin are more often used, as they have a stronger effect in this regard.
