Skinoren Cream 30g is a topical prescription or pharmacy medicine containing 20% azelaic acid. It treats acne vulgaris by killing acne-causing bacteria, reducing inflammation, and preventing dead skin cells from clogging pores. It also helps fade dark spots and post-acne hyperpigmentation.

Key Details

• Active Ingredient: Azelaic acid 20% w/w (200 mg per gram of cream)

• Size: 30g tube

• Main Uses: Acne vulgaris, pimples, blackheads, and skin discoloration

How It Works

• Antibacterial: Targets and reduces Cutibacterium acnes bacteria on the skin.

• Exfoliating / Keratolytic: Slows down the abnormal overgrowth of skin cells that plug pores.

• Anti-inflammatory: Calms red, swollen, and irritated acne lesions.

• Pigment Inhibition: Restricts overactive pigment cells to clear dark spots.

Directions for Use

• Cleanse: Wash the affected area with water or a mild cleanser and pat dry.

• Application: Apply a thin layer and rub in gently twice a day (morning and evening).

• Sensitive Skin: Start by applying once daily (in the evening) for the first week to let your skin adjust.

• Amount: About 0.5g (a 2.5 cm strip) is generally enough for the entire face.

• Timeline: Visible improvement often shows after 4 weeks, but consistent use over several months is usually needed for best results.
