Once approved, you can order the cream, and it will be delivered straight to your door.
Skinoren cream is a topical medicine used to treat mild to moderate acne, including mild acne. It contains the active ingredient azelaic acid 20. At Click2pharmacy, we have a prescription service where you can buy Skinoren cream online.
Skinoren azelaic acid is a cream-based product applied directly onto the skin. The active ingredient azelaic acid works in two ways- it reduces the growth of surface skin cells and kills the acne-causing bacteria. The reduction in bacteria leads to less skin inflammation and irritation. In addition, this product has other benefits, such as soothing and moisturising the skin. You can also use Skinoren for rosacea as well as acne scars.
Skinoren 20 cream is suitable for adults and children aged over 12 years.
Please read the patient information leaflet for Skinoren.
Skinoren is used to treat a variety of skin conditions:
Most people see an improvement after 4 weeks, but this can vary from person to person. To get the best results, you will need to use Skinoren acne cream for several months. However, this product should not be used for more than 12 months.
Active ingredient in Skinoren is Azelaic Acid 20%
Other Ingredients: Arlatone 983 S, Cutina CBS, Cetearyl octanoate, Propylene glycol, Glycerol, Benzoic acid & Purified water.
Like all medicines, Skinoren has side effects. The most common are:
Some uncommon side effects of azelaic acid cream (Skinoren) are:
If you experience any side effects that are rare, like facial swelling, eczema, or an allergic reaction, you must stop using Skinoren acne treatment immediately and seek medical advice.
For External Use Only
Keep out of the SIGHT and REACH of children.
There is limited data on how azelaic acid affects pregnant and breastfeeding mothers. For this reason, speak to your doctor or pharmacist if you wish to use Skinoren Azelaic Acid 20%.
Please note that infants should not come into contact with the cream, so it is advisable to avoid applying it to the chest area when breastfeeding.
Skinoren is a versatile topical treatment. You can use Skinoren for acne, including all types ranging from mild to cystic acne. The key ingredient, azelaic acid benefits the skin in many ways. By using this product, you can experience fewer spots, less redness, and soothed and moisturised skin.
Another advantage is that you can use Skinoren cream for rosacea, a skin condition that shares similarities with acne. When using Skinoren, most people start to see their skin improve after a few weeks. However, on occasion, if patients do suffer irritation, we advise them to reduce the amount they apply or use only once a day.
There is also a similar product containing azelaic acid- Finacea gel. The main difference between Finacea gel and Skinoren cream is that Skinoren has a different strength of azelaic acid, making it a stronger treatment.
As it is a prescription-based product, you should only buy Skinoren 20 cream online from a UK-registered pharmacy.
You can buy Skinoren online from Click2Pharmacy, a UK-registered online pharmacy. We have an online clinic that provides prescription medicines from online doctors and pharmacists. You will need to fill out an online form to check for suitability. Once this has been reviewed, you can place an order, and it will be delivered to you.
Skinoren does work on rosacea. Azelaic acid is particularly effective in targeting redness and swelling associated with rosacea.
The main difference is the strength of azelaic acid in each product. Skinoren cream contains azelaic acid 20%, whilst Finacea contains 15%. This makes Skinoren azelaic acid cream 20% more potent and can treat severe and cystic acne. Finacea gel is more suited to mild to moderate acne.
It is not clear how Skinoren prescription treatment affects pregnant women. This is because there are limited studies. Speak to your doctor first if you wish to use Skinoren, who can advise you of the risks.
You can combine Skinoren gel with oral antibiotic treatments such as Lymecycline or Tetralysal. However, you cannot use this product with other acne creams or gels.
