About Gaplift-6 Cream 30 gm

Gaplift-6 Cream 30 gm is used to treat skin problems like acne (pimples), acne scars, melasma, hyperpigmentation, wrinkles, and photoaging (premature ageing of the skin caused by repeated exposure to UV radiation). Gaplift-6 Cream 30 gm has antibacterial, antioxidant,  keratolytic (remove warts, calluses), comedolytic (inhibits the formation of blemishes), and anti-inflammatory activity.
