How does Skinoren Cream work?
Skinoren Cream helps treat acne in two ways.
Firstly, it helps to reduce the growth of keratin skin cells. These can block pores and cause spots or blackheads when they mix with sebum, the natural, oily substance that coats your skin.
Secondly, the active ingredient, azelaic acid, has antimicrobial properties. This helps kill the bacteria that can irritate your sebaceous glands, and cause inflammation and pus in acne. It also allows these glands to heal naturally.
How long does Skinoren Cream take to work?
Most people who use Skinoren Cream notice an improvement in their skin after about 4 weeks.
Only adults and children over 12 years old should use Skinoren Cream. Always follow your doctor’s instructions to use Skinoren Cream properly.
When to take Skinoren Cream
You should use Skinoren Cream twice a day: once in the morning, then again in the evening. Do this unless your doctor has recommended otherwise.
If you have very sensitive skin, for the first week of treatment, you should apply this in the evening only. After this time, you can use it twice daily (morning and evening).
The amount of cream you need to use each time will depend on the size of the affected area. Your doctor can advise you on this. As a rough guide, if your whole face is affected, you’ll need roughly 2.5cm (0.5g) of cream to apply here. Increase this amount accordingly if your back or chest needs to be treated.
How to apply Skinoren Cream
Wash the affected area thoroughly with plain water first. If your skin is greasy, you can use a mild skin cleanser. Dry your skin thoroughly.
Gently rub the recommended amount of Skinoren Cream into the affected area.
Wash your hands thoroughly afterwards.
How long do I need to take Skinoren Cream for?
You should use Skinoren Cream for several months to get the best results. However, the duration of your treatment depends on how severe your acne is.
