Rosacea Cream - Important Treatment Information

How does Rosacea Cream treat rosacea?

Rosacea Cream is the newest effective treatment for rosacea. It’s a topical treatment that improves the condition of blemishes and bumps in as little as 2 weeks when applied directly to the affected area. The anti-parasitic and anti-inflammatory properties work to improve your complexion and alleviate the symptoms of rosacea. Rosacea Cream can be used for up to 4 months continuously without a break.

How do you use Rosacea Cream?

Rosacea Cream should only be applied to skin on the face, avoiding the eyes and mouth. The standard dosage is one application per day, for anything up to four months.

The directions for use are as follows:

  • Apply a pea-sized amount of ivermectin cream to each of the affected areas
  • Spread the ointment as a thin layer across the face, avoiding the eyelids and lips
  • Wash hands after application
  • Wait for it to dry before applying other creams or makeup

The best time to apply Rosacea Cream is either morning or night; just aim to keep it relatively consistent.

Note: Rosacea Cream is a topical treatment and not for oral, ophthalmic, or intravaginal use.

How long does Rosacea Cream take to work?

When using Rosacea Cream for treating rosacea, most people find that they experience an improvement in their skin after around four weeks of treatment. You should start to notice a gradual improvement in your condition before this time; however, you will not see the full effects for at least four weeks.

Most people continue to see an improvement in their symptoms after this period, so it’s important to continue with treatment — even if your symptoms quickly improve.

Is Rosacea Cream suitable for everyone?

Although Rosacea Cream is very effective at treating affected areas of acne rosacea, it’s not suitable for everyone. Always talk to your doctor or pharmacist before using a new treatment. Rosacea Cream may not be the right treatment for you if the following applies

  • You are allergic to any of the ingredients listed on the patient information leaflet.
  • You are under the age of 18.
  • You are pregnant or breastfeeding.

    Note: Rosacea Cream is a topical treatment and not for oral, ophthalmic, or intravaginal use. If you miss a dose, do not attempt to make up for it by using twice the amount the next time — just continue as normal.

    We advise customers to use this medicine as prescribed — please check with our online team (or a doctor or pharmacist) if you’re unsure.

    Rosacea Cream side effects

    Just like many other topical medicines, Rosacea Cream can cause side effects. These will not necessarily affect everyone. The most common side effect of using Rosacea Cream is a burning sensation on the skin after application. Other, less common side effects include itchy, irritated or dry skin.

    Rosacea Cream shouldn’t cause redness or inflammation, since these are the same symptoms it’s used to combat. Should you experience aggravated redness or inflammation of the skin after use, or any other unexpected side effect, consult a doctor or pharmacist.
