Acne-Derm cream is a topical medication used to treat acne, and its active ingredient is azelaic acid. Azelaic acid is a naturally occurring compound found in grains like wheat and barley, and it has been synthetically formulated for skincare treatments due to its anti-inflammatory, antibacterial, and keratolytic (exfoliating) properties.

Benefits of using this product
Azelaic Acid: Typically, it contains around 20% azelaic acid as the active ingredient.
Anti-Inflammatory: Reduces redness and swelling associated with acne.
Antibacterial: Azelaic acid helps to kill the bacteria that contribute to acne formation, such as Propionibacterium acnes.
Unclogs Pores: It works by helping to normalize skin cell turnover, preventing the buildup of dead skin cells in the pores, which can lead to acne.
Evens Skin Tone: It can also reduce hyperpigmentation, making it effective for conditions like post-inflammatory hyperpigmentation (PIH) and melasma.
Treats Mild to Moderate Acne: Reduces the formation of pimples, blackheads, and whiteheads.
Helps with Rosacea: Can reduce redness and visible blood vessels associated with rosacea.
Gentler Than Some Other Acids: Unlike stronger treatments such as benzoyl peroxide or retinoids, azelaic acid tends to cause fewer side effects like irritation, making it suitable for sensitive skin.
How to use Acne-Derm cream
Apply the cream to clean, dry skin, usually twice daily (morning and night), or as directed by a healthcare provider.
Avoid contact with the eyes, mouth, and mucous membranes.
Sunscreen should be used during the day as azelaic acid can make the skin more sensitive to sunlight.
