- Azelaic acid is the Swiss Army Knife of #skincare, good at lots of things not excellent at one

Skin Science: Found in rye, barley & wheat, for the greenies it is pseudonatural. It has anti-inflammatory as well as pigmentation inhibiting properties. Best formulated in a gel with a concentration between 5 to 20%. This compound is safe in pregnancy & lactation.

As an esthetician i love these quick concise videos about a single topic. Super easy to understand and recite to clients
Does azeliac acid could help me got back my skin color which got darker cuz of lazer treatment, please reply me ?
So fabulous to see you back on 'the' Tube!!
i wish i had been recommended this by my derm instead of finding it on my own, made a massive difference 🤦🏻♂️ not sure why first option was long term antibiotics
So they can make long term$$$
Same with me!
Has changed my skin more than ANYTHING, and I had previously been put on antibiotics topically and internally for YEARS...why are doctors not on to this?
And Azclear is so cheap!
It helped with my pigmentation without irritating my skin. I know it takes time to improve but I am happy with it
Lol because they kno it won’t work and you’ll be back to see them so they can get paid
I had to ask for it too
I've gone down a rabbit hole of skincare videos these past few days and your videos are by far the best! I've always had clear/normal skin and just accepted the pigmentation on my face as something that to live with and cover up with makeup even though I hate it... But after seeing your videos I think I'll try making a few changes to my skincare routine and look into a dermatologist! I never realised it was something I might be able to fix, thank you! You've given me a lot of hope for my skin now
I love how short and to the point this video was! Very helpful!
I just thought about you yesterday.
I was wondering why you weren't uploading. Good to have you back.
Best regards,
From Bangladesh.
I love your RUclips videos! They're so informational! Especially your product reviews due to me being an acne sufferer since 19 years old!
If I was a big social media person I would follow you on other media platforms!
Hi Dr Lim. I have missed you..I think its years now when I'd wake up on Sunday morning expecting to watch your new video as I ate my breakfast. Thank you for the info here..
Welcome back Dr. Lim. We missed your videos 🇿🇦
Wonderful to see you back Doctor..we all missed you and your advice 😃
You have been missed!
4 weeks on Azelaic Acid and the difference that it has made to my skin is remarkable, I have Acne rosacea, but not just the average type, the acne covered my entire face and my face was fire engine red all the time I had been on isotretinoin 10mg for 4 years and I got tired of the side effects I was experiencing so I stopped using it. In my quest to find something to help I came across you. I am very grateful that you have taken the time to help educate people on skin care.
What percentage of azelaic acid are you using? I'm willing to try a 15 percent azelaic acid but it may be too much, and I can't help but feel like the 10% wouldn't so much 😅
I use 20%.
@@glynphoebe2517 is 20% ok for daytime?
I have 20% but i usually use it at night .not aure if its ok for am?
@@GeorgeHaokipMusic I personally use it at night but I do believe it is safe to use during the day also.
@@glynphoebe2517 do you use it nighly and how much do you use?
Thank you so much Dr Lim, I think that this is the missing link in my skincare regime, and it can be bought over the counter! Hallelujah!!!

Hi Davin, great video. Would love to hear you talk about skin picking and would azeliac be something that can be used for the redness that follows??
Awesome to see you again-and, great clip. So odd we can't get this over the counter in the States. I managed to make a purchase online-waiting to get my order. I have very sensitive skin yet can use Tretinoin Cream 0.025% (took over a year for my skin to adjust). I did purchase "Brightly" by Dr. Sam yet sadly my skin freaked out from it. The culprit: Vitamin C. Brightly has Vit. C in it. My skin literally breaks out with a horrible rash from Vitamin C. I am hopeful that Azelaic Acid WITHOUT Vit. C will help reduce the slight redness that I have (natural red-head).
Excited to see results!
I work for Laser Clinics New Zealand currenty, (HO being in Aussie) and I can't sing your praises enough to my clients and I learn so much of you myself and like you, I like to keep it real with people, where to skimp/where to spend. I just brought today the same A.A in the blue box today, great price point!
Would azeliac acid lightens my skin which got darker cuz of lazer session ?
@@zinebliu350I have been using OTC Azelaic acid for my melasma and I think pretty sure it looks much lighter. I use Cos De Baha Azelaic acid serum.
Happy to see you return to youtube
Yes you're back!!!
the legend is back!
WE MISSED YOU!! WELCOME BACK - USA 🇺🇸!
thank you for this! the only reason i started Finacea (azelaic acid) was because I needed acne therapy and was pregnant and trying to get pregnant for the past few years. I recently went back to my derm and she increased it to twice a day. I knew it was great for acne but didn't know it was anti inflammatory!
Are you still using it? did u use it to remove makeup etc? thx
Azelaic acid works so good for me..very sensitive, acne-prone, 45 year old skin. One of the only actives I can tolerate and has made such a big difference!
How do u use it like do u put on before or after ur moisturizer? Thank you
did you know possible for azelaic acid to surface sort of purging at first using?
I will definitely try this .Great video!
Welcome back ❣️Have you any videos on Freezing off keratosis on the face... Thank you.. 🙏🏻.. 🌺
excellent video, so concise!
I love your videos sir. Direct to the point, concise. 👍🏻
Thank you for the informative video! I’ve got a question. I’ve used Finacea (Azelaic acid 15%) for over 6 months now and yet no improvement so far though. Maybe I should switch to Skinoren (Azelaic acid 20%) then?
Hi, greetings from Mexico! I love your videos, love watching you 😍😘
always informative, thank you!
Hi from Bloomington, Illinois, USA. Esthetician here. Love the education
Azelaic acid is your skin BFF..
Some of your videos i watched and i really like to watch and listen the way you explain everything. I hope doc you also can make a video for nails problem. Like onycholysis.
Same here in Asia, Skinoren - buy over the counter. Amazing product !!
This is the only thing works for my acnes and blackheads! The best ever!!
How much time does it took?
SO happy this is available easily in NZ.
Thanks for your info! I just did pico sure laser treatment 5 days ago. I will buy it and give it a try. When should I start use it since I did laser?
Dr Lim, you did it again 👏 great video so informative 👍 for me as I have rosesca on 1 cheek 😡 hhmmfff annoying, I just got this azaleiec cream last week fingers 🤞, thanks again 😀
Thanks for your videos! Do you know if azelaic acid works on seborrheic dermatitis?
Good info. Curious to know why Azelaic Acid being banned to certain countries ? What's diff betw azelaic acid & alpha arbutin ? Both also helps hyperpigmentation. Thanks.
Currently suffering from hormonal acnes on my back due to pregnancy, will give this a try. Thank you so much
how was it?
Welcome back Dr. Davin 😁 thank you for this valuable video. I’ve just started using azelaic acid for my rosacea and the only one I could find in Australia was from Paulas choice - $50 😫 I didn’t know I could just get it over the counter at the chemist for $15. I’ve been mixing it with my tretinoin at night. Hope it is still effective used together???
Priceline and Chemist Warehouse etc. Great product. It can't be worn under makeup though because it "pills"... foundation rolls off. So it's OK apply at night, or during the day inside at home.
Thanks a lot Doc 😊
Flushing and blushing, hilarious. Yup, that would be me. Thank you.
Hi I use azelaic acid on alternate nights to tretinoin on my rosacea and eczema prone skin. That combination has made a massive difference to it. I use it with niacinamide and have noticed really good redness reduction since incorporating it. I don't use the AA and tret in the same routine due to dryness and both increase cell turnover. My menopausal, very dry and sensitive skin tolerates these ingredients used alternately far better than together. I'm sure oilier and/or more robust skin will be able to use them together. Here in the UK anything over 10% is on prescription. Texture can be an issue with AA and there is a derivative that is much smoother and nicer to use, but works just as well for me (both garden of wisdom and geek and gorgeous use the derivative in a very pleasant serum texture).
Tretinoin has given me back the cushion to my skin, but AA has helped with inflammation/redness. I still have some persistant/chronic redness with visible capillaries, but the overall diffuse redness is so much better. I highly recommend it. Best wishes.
did you know possible for azelaic acid to surface sort of purging at first using?
Hi Dr Davin I just want to ask. I am using benzoyl peroxide 10% and azelaic acid in the morning along with a moisturizer and a sunscreen. I am using Tretinoin .05 in the evening with the moisturizer. Can I use these products after a carbon peel laser?
Great explanation - thanks 🙌
Hi Dr Lim, i am also from Australia. May i ask what brand should i get for the gel one. Thank you.
Ive just started the azeliac acid face wash tonight and ill be using it in conjunction with the azclear lotion. I love panoxyl 10% face wash sooooo much!! shame we don't have it in Australia. Do you have a recommendation ?? its 10% benzyl peroxide face wash. Love it.
Also would the azeliac acid cleanser be good for removing and washing makeup? I have quite oily acne prone blackhead skin.
maybe a different face wash would be better?
Are you in Melbourne by any chance?
Dr. Lim please know that I learn from your videos. Thank you.
Glad you printed out the word. In UK & USA it’s a 4 syllable word. 🤓. I was lost a second there - like, OMG! Not another skincare product.
I must buy this! Thank you
I swear every time when I see his face I start thinking about George Clooney 😂
🤣🤣
Super helpful, thank you!!
Thank you very much Dr 🤩🤩🤩
Thank you for your video. Can I use it with Retin A or in place of Retin A? Sounds great!
He said at 3:20 you can use it 30” before Retin A
THANK YOU for sharing your precious time, knowledge, & thoughts! I’m a PA who loves those harmless “Swiss Army Knives”, like Azelaic Acid & colloidal silver in aloe! Hugs to you & Merry Christmas 🎄
What about using it with benzoyl peroxide? For night time, I use cleanser with benzoyl peroxide 4% (cerave cleanser) and then I incorporate azelaic acid amongst the routine.
Very informative dr🙏
Yeah! You are back on Utube! Would you advise to start Azaleac Acid 5% and work my way up? As I have used Tretenoin 0.1%for 2 years...however recently have noticed red dry irritated patches and I am hoping AAcid can help with this.Thank you
It is much milder than tretinoin. I started with 20% in a cream and had no issues with it. I believe 5%might me too low for it from what I heard by Dr Dray. Maybe start with 10 or 15% if you are worried of side effects
@@v.ang.4803 She’s right!
Thanks I need this👍🏻 I really loved your video
Can you plz make a video on skin care products which is safe for breastfeeding mother's?
Thank you for the great information video, from Germany 💛.
This is fire thanks m8
Is it good for hyperpigmentation/melasma due to sun exposure/hormonal imbalance? And can I use it everyday or do I need to gradually introduce it to my skincare ? Also I wanna mix it with alpha arbutin 2%
Would this be good to treat dark spots on the back of hands?
Azelaic acid has done wonders for my skin. Thank you!
Where I can find it?
Happy that it work for you
@@joelicevidot8640 the ordinary has an 10% azelaic acid toner!
did you know possible for azelaic acid to surface sort of purging at first using?
In U.S. it also comes in a foam under brand name Finacea. Is that a good formulation vs gel?
Azelaic acid is pharmacy only in Australia, which means the amazing Paula’s Choice booster has recently been removed from sale. It’s been life-changing for me so am nervous to have to change to a product which may not have the same cosmetic elegance. I find Azclear too filmy to use on my face, I’m hoping prescription Finacea will be kinder to my skin!
I use Azclear azelaic acid only at night before bed...or if I am inside at home. Is not suitable for (outside) daywear, as it "pills"...it makes foundation and sunscreen roll off.
I use Duac to control my acne. Can I alternate the use of Duac with azalaic acid ? I’m interested in the pigmentation benefits of the acid
Thank you for sharing. I have used prescription tretinoin 0.1% since may. My question is is it best to apply tretinoin cream then wait 30 minutes before applying azelaic acid or can they both be applied one after the other? I would appreciate your feedback. Thank you.
Did you ever figure this out?
No. Use in the day and tretinoin at night. Most derms advise to refrain from using together.
Hi doc do u have any recommendation cream to lightening underarms ? Thanks
Hello doc, can I use the ordinary brand aha +bha peeling solution while lactating?
You are amazing live your vídeos!+
Is it possible for you to mention the product list in description please
Thank you 🙏
will this work for acne scars and redness?
thanks for this video. there's so much useful information and it's concise
Thanks!
Not sure what’s so backwards with me but azelaic acid irritated my skin way more than retin-a. Though to be fair I started at a very low OTC dose of retinol and then got .025% from my doctor and built up how often I used it very slowly, whereas I was prescribed 15% azelaic acid and instructed to use it everyday immediately. After a few days of daily use my skin was burning for 10 minutes after I put it on and stung from any other product, and my skin was peeling like crazy. I went to using it every other day and that seems to have helped but I’m still flaking a bit after a couple of weeks. I always astound doctors with how severely sensitive I am to basically every medication out there so I guess just be careful if you are extremely sensitive, even with this stuff!
Oh you back?
Welcome back, can I wear this with Tranexamic Acid or with vitamin c and arbutin?
Dr. Dray has recent video on that but short answer for vit c and arbutin is yes.
Which is better: 15% in gel or 20% in cream?
I have rosacea. How would you combine it with the use of Solantra?
Hey Dr Lim, thanks for sharing your wealth of knowledge! After watching your videos I tried azelaic acid and prescribed tretinoin by my doc and it has made a tremendous difference in my adult acne/PIH! I was wondering if you have any recommendations for NQ laser dermatologists for scar treatments? I live in the Whitsundays - we have a cosmetic skin clinic but I'm happy to travel to Mackay or Townsville if you had any recommendations. I am very cautious with my Asian skin tone and spending my money wisely! 💸 🌴🍹🌞 cheers!
hi ! can you tell me how to use your tretonoin and azelaic acid? do you use tretinoin at pm and AA at am?
what's the best way to apply it if your skin is feeling irritated?
Hi Dr. Lim! May I know if the azelaic acid promote the hair growth? Because I noticed the excessive facial hair on my face after I start applying it
So what’s the best percentage to reduce pigmentation?
What percentage of azelaic acid should we be using/is most effective?
Thank you Dr Lim❤️
Hi doctor! is it better than sesderma azelaic? I have been using azclear for two months but I don't see any difference in pigmentation
Hi doctor, can I use it like substitute for tritenoin b/c I have plans to have kid.
What do you think about Azelaic acid from sesderma?
What is the difference between kojic acid and azelic acid?.my doubt is which one is good for pigmentation and also how long it will use . Can I add daily skin care routine
hello Doc. would you make a video about scientist making acne vaccine? what is your thought and opinion about that? would it be possible or good or big companies and dermatologist will block this idea and will have under the table deal to the scientist pursuing it to make a permanent vaccine for acne. i think this is a nice topic but i hope i will not offend you also about my question :)
What concentration of it is safe in pregnancy?
Hi Dr. Can i use azelaic acid 15%gel without derma prescription?
I get papule acne! The pimples come up then they don't pop & go away, then end up scaring. Would love to know how to get rid of the scars at home.
which ingredients can't be used with azelaic acid? I use tretinoin cream and bha for my acne and I would like to know how can I fit in in my routine without compromising its efficacy.
Dr can we use it with hydroquinone??
You must have read my mind! I’ve been trying to work out where to put my 20% azelaic acid, into my routine, as I use Vit C and tretinoin. Was looking for a clear instruction. Thanks for that.
Me too. I use tretinoin and azelaic acid at night, vit c in the morning. Not sure that’s the right way though.
which percentage of tretinoic you r using and which brand plz?
Ifrah Asim 5% or 0.5mg
Oh and it’s Cordes Vas
