Skinoren 20% Azelaic Acid Cream is a topical therapeutic cream containing 20% azelaic acid. It is used for the care of acne-prone skin, clogged pores, and the appearance of superficial post-acne marks, as directed by a doctor or pharmacist.

Max Beauty Usage Tips:
- It is recommended to use Skinoren as a topical therapeutic product, not as a regular daily lightening cream.
- Start with a very small amount, as the 20% concentration may cause dryness or stinging for unaccustomed skin.
- Do not use it in the same routine with strong retinols or strong exfoliants initially to avoid increasing skin sensitivity.
- For dry or sensitive skin, use a soothing moisturizer before or after the cream, depending on skin tolerance.
- If the goal is post-acne marks or hyperpigmentation, sunscreen is very important to maintain results and prevent increased spots.
- It is not recommended to use it on the entire face if the problem is only in specific areas; use it on targeted areas as needed.
- If severe burning, swelling, intense itching, or persistent redness occurs, discontinue use and consult a specialist.
- Not recommended for use by children or during pregnancy and breastfeeding without consulting a doctor or pharmacist.
