WHAT IS WINLEVI?

WINLEVI® is the only acne cream that targets sebum (oil) production,

leading to clearer skin and more control over future breakouts.

What is SEBUM?

Sebum is an oily wax that your skin makes. Some of it’s good—it keeps your skin hydrated and protected. But when there’s too much, it becomes acne’s best friend, feeding the bacteria that cause breakouts.

All acne is hormonal

Acne hormones in your skin drive sebum production. So when hormone triggers like stress, puberty, or your menstrual cycle stir things up, your skin produces more sebum, causing acne breakouts.

WINLEVI is unique

Unlike any other topical, WINLEVI reduces sebum production by stopping those acne hormones in your skin from causing too much sebum—leading to clearer skin and more control over acne breakouts.

Unlike over-the-counter acne products, WINLEVI is an FDA-approved prescription treatment—with safety shown in males and females ages 12 and up.

Important Safety Information

The most common side effects of WINLEVI cream include reddening, scaling or dryness, and itching of the skin being treated. Please see more Important Safety Information below.
