Description
Skinoren is a topical cream or gel used to treat both acne and rosacea. Its active ingredient, azelaic acid, is a naturally occurring substance with antibacterial and anti-inflammatory properties. Skinoren is designed to address the common triggers of skin flare-ups, helping to reduce redness, reduce inflammation, and prevent clogged pores that lead to spots.
For acne, Skinoren works by gently exfoliating the surface of the skin and reducing the growth of bacteria that contribute to breakouts. It helps to clear up blackheads, whiteheads, and inflamed pimples, while also helping to fade post-acne marks over time. Unlike some harsher treatments, Skinoren is generally well tolerated and does not strip the skin or cause significant dryness when used as directed.
When used for rosacea, Skinoren reduces redness and the small visible bumps often seen on the cheeks, nose, and chin. It works by calming the overactive immune response in the skin that leads to irritation and inflammation. Many people with rosacea find that their skin looks more even-toned and feels less sensitive after consistent use.
Skinoren is typically applied in a thin layer to the affected areas twice a day, once in the morning and once at night on clean, dry skin. It may take several weeks to notice visible improvement, especially with rosacea, but gradual and steady changes are a sign that the product is working.
Some users experience mild side effects at first, such as a burning or tingling sensation, dryness, or slight redness. These reactions usually lessen with time. Skinoren is not suitable for use on broken or very sensitive skin and should be kept away from the eyes and mouth.
