Finacea Gel is a treatment for acne and rosacea that you put straight onto your skin. It brings down the inflammation causing your spots or redness. It also helps to treat hyperpigmentation and melasma, returning your skin’s appearance to normal.
For hyperpigmentation and melasma, Finacea Gel is technically an ‘off-label’ treatment, so it’s not licensed for these conditions. We know it works and it’s safe to use, a clinician will just have to make sure it's right for you.
Finacea Gel contains 15% of the active ingredient azelaic acid. Azelaic acid is one of a type of medication called dicarboxylic acids. It has antibacterial properties, so it works well for bacterial acne. It also has anti-inflammatory effects, which can help with disorders like acne, rosacea and melasma.
The azelaic acid in Finacea Gel also creates hypopigmentation. It does this by binding to an enzyme called tyrosinase and stopping it from working as well. This means it’s effective for the symptoms of melasma as well as other causes of hyperpigmentation. So if you have any of these conditions, Finacea Gel can help.
It only comes in one dose, a gel with 15% of azelaic acid. You’ll usually use it twice a day on the areas of your skin that are affected. 0.5g of gel, or about an inch, is usually enough to cover the whole of your face.
If this amount isn’t working well enough to bring down your acne, rosacea, hyperpigmentation or melasma, talk to your clinician. You may need to apply it more often, or a different treatment might be better for you. Make sure to keep using it as long as your clinician says to see an improvement.
