Dr.Dray is a skin goddess. After 15years of acne my skin is finally flawless after following her tips. 🙌♥️
Gracias. 😊
What routine did you follow?
@@asimweruganyoisa9483 btw, I don't know for who you are asking because your skin looks amazing!!
@@netaZzz haha thanks but my skin has acted up since last summer and I'm struggling with breakouts and extreme sensitivity 😞
@@asimweruganyoisa9483 Did my comment disappear, or is it just for me? :/ i wrote a lot explaining everything and now I don't see it. Tell me if I have to write it again...
No worries, just listen to your skin! There is something you need to change in your routine and it will be fine ;)
I sleep better at night knowing Dr.Dray is in the world.
Thank you for the time you take to create these wonderful videos Andrea!
Your latest videos have been so on point as to what I’m looking for! My dermatologist recommended tretinion, /etc, and to follow up with azeleic acid. And your latest videos have been exactly the information I need, I’m trying to keep my skincare simple nowadays and your shopping videos are godsend, and now this update on azelaic acid is just 👏👏👏👏👏 on point Doc!
Loving this video. Thanks Dr Dray!❤
One of the best videos yet! Answered questions I didn’t even know I had! Well all vids are amazing! Plz never stop making vids!
god, i don’t know what i would do without this channel. i have such intense anxiety over switching products for my acne. i was on differin and it has been working well, but my dermatologist wants me to lessen my use and go to this. i just wanted to know more information due to the fear of my skin getting worse again. this has helped my worries so much!
incredibly helpful and informative! thank you so much
I swear Dr. Dray lives inside my head. I find myself curious about an ingredient like hydroquinone, and a few days ago, azelaic acid. And the next few days she has new videos talking about the ingredients. 😂❤
Agree
On point!
I literally just bought the ordinary’s azelaic acid serum yesterday 😭
I am 25 and started having more acne (currently dealing with lots of stress from work, school, and wedding planning). I switched temporarily from differen gel to The Ordinary 10% azelaic acid. I am on my 3rd week and honestly see a difference in my post-acne marks and prevent further acne.
Ceve Re soap...
I use the bar on my face.
Use a washcloth and enjoy the bubbles . No idea for moisturizing... I have used Noxema since high school (almost 64) and that works for me. what about diet??
I just started an additional 10% of azelaic acid in another prescription. My skin must really like it bc I actually see even more improvement
At about 25 a lot of women go through this. It happened to me too. I had to carry a list of comedogenic ingredients and thoroughly scan any products I used. It will get better.
@@alicassidy8913 noxema has comedogenic ingredients. It works for you but not everyone can tolerate it.
experiencing the worst acne 2 months before my wedding, stressed about the wedding planning, work and the acne itself. Azelaic acid has not worked much for me.
Thank you, you always give such great information!🥰
Speaking of skin of color, Dr Alexis Stephens, a black derm uses prescription azelaic acid. She also has eczema. Her tip for trying to help with the stinging is to place the azelaic acid in the refrigerator and apply cold.
Greetings d b hope u r well n Happy Tuesday😀👍💜….
I LOVE Dr. Stephens too.
I'm going to try this! Thanks for the tip 😊
Great tip going to have to check that out
Thanks for the tip! I've recently developed eczema and I've been using the Paula's Choice 10% azelaic acid and it's helped so much!
That was a very helpful video! I have Finacea, but was afraid to use it because I’m using Tazorac. This really helps to alleviate my concerns. Thank you, Dr. Dray!
Thank you for this and have a good day! Sending much love from Thailand ❤ My skin has improved a lot by watching your videos!
Thank u ! Eager to use prescription strength for my hyperpigmentation because various over the counters have not worked over time
Have been on 15% prescription Finacea for nearly two years now - can’t be without it in my morning routine every day!
Excellent video Doctor! Very thoroughly explained ❤
We love azaleic acid in my household. I’m using it for my rosacea and breakouts (45), my 15yo daughter for rough skin and acne and 17yo son for deeper acne.
We’re all experiencing great results and now, after adding AA to his morning and evening routine, my son has the best looking skin in his class (took him 4 months to get there) with practically no acne at all, ever.
Using 20% Skinoren available here in Europe over the counter
Hello! can you please share your son's skin care routine, how does he use azelaic acid? thank you!
This video couldn’t come at a better time! Thank you Dr Dray 😊
Thanks for watching!
azelaic acid was a game changer for my skin. healed my extremely broken / damaged / purple colored skin (from benzoyl peroxide usage that was too much for my sensitive skin apparently) and evened out my skin tone and some of my textured acne scars, not just the red marks im talking about actual scars with depressions in the skin. azelaic acid made them smoother. it's a holy grail i will keep using.
@depaki how long did it take to show results?
Which brand u were using ?
I started dealing with hormonal acne after going off of birth control at 25. I never had acne in my teens, so I did all kinds of research. I tried salicylic acid, benzoyl peroxide, adapalene, topical antibiotics, etc. and the acne persisted. A few months ago I saw one of Dr. Dray's videos about azelaic acid. My real life dermatologist never mentioned this as a recommended treatment, but I was desperate for clear skin, so I purchased The Ordinary's OTC azelaic acid cream and it has literally changed my life. I went from having new breakouts every single day to not having a single blemish for 3 months straight. If you are struggling with what you believe is hormonal acne, you MUST try this stuff. It's super affordable as well.
Thank you so much for commenting! I'm on theh same boat having tried salicylic acid, benzoyl peroxide, and tretinoin so far with no success. Did you apply azelaic acid daily?
@@diannahoney4240 yes! Everyday
It also regrew thinning hair in my fringe area! I used pharmacy grade 20% azelaic acid cream
Hi! Is the AA the only active in your routine?
The queen of skin ..
Hello doctor...
I hope you're well.
Happy Tuesday Dr. Dray ❤️!
Love from 🇵🇹🇪🇺💖!...
Time to binge watch My Favoritee Dr!!!!
Great information Dr. Dray! I definitely have melasma on my neck but I’m wondering if it’s possible to have it on your chest as well. Would azelaic acid be recommended for the chest if melasma is present and also potentially improve darkness from sun damage?
Thank you Dr. Dray!! I love Azelaic Acid in my routine, as I have rosacea and melasma. I appreciate all your knowledge, recommendations and your willingness to share. I also appreciate your honesty, and your humor. You make me laugh in almost every video. I am so happy I found your channel, you are a bright spot in my day and I am so grateful. Many blessings!💖💖💖
How was your rosacea in the beginning with azelaic Acid? Did it first become worse ( initial abgravation/ worsening). Would appreciate if you could share your experience. Thank you ❤
Hey I also have rosacea and melasma , what other products do you use? Have you noticed a different in your melasma? I just noticed it above my upper lip :(
Been using azelaic acid for about 12 years. Mild rosacea and some breaking out in my mid twenties. It has helped me! 😊
Hi Dr Dray so excited to be here happy Tuesday I live for this ❤️
Happy Tuesday
Greetings David Shabas hope u r well n Happy Tuesday😀👍💜….
@@whitneybrown4067 Hi Whitney happy Tuesday 👍
My derm just Rxed me azelaic acid, I immediately came to you to see what I can learn before using it! Thank you 😊
I'm really glad the vehicle of azelaic acid was mentioned. I've been doing a lot of research and reading reviews on the 3 different vehicles. Most of the folks that have rosacea and use azelaic acid on forums I have read claim the foam is more gentle than the gel in their experience. 😁
I've been using azelaic acid daily for ~5 years (along with spiro and retin a) and my skin looks fab
Happy Tuesday!
I've been using Azelaic acid and Tretenoin alternately every night for 6 months, following my derms advice and my skin is even better before I had this terrible breakout. I look younger than my actual age also thanks to Tretenoin :)
Hey buddy.. did i use both creams at the same time..?? First tret and then azelaic ??
@@Sanatani_hindu__07 Usually Azelaic first. I cleanse my face, apply toner, niacinamide serum then apply Azelaic acid and after 20 mins, Tretonoin, followed by a Hydra[Hyaluronic acid] moisturizer. [Only at night, twice a week(Tretinoin)]
Woo hoo! Love your topics! Have a fantastic Tuesday! 😃💙
Thank you! You too!
Prescription azelaic acid has been a game changer for my skin. Thanks for this informative and interesting video, Dr. Dray!
Do you know how Azelaic Acid interacts with fermented skin care ingredients like bifida or gelactomyses?
I use Prescription 15% Cream and I love it! My redness has just gone! I use it twice a Day, along with Prescription Tretinoin Cream 0.01%! I'm also going to have My Dermatologist give Me Hydroquinone next in December! I really do have that Glass Skin People are trying to get! I LOVE MY DERMATOLOGIST ❤
I used to use Skinoren, which I tolerated without any problem. Unfortunately it is not available in our country at the moment so I switched to Finacea. I tried it as I used Skinoren, after moisturizing my skin. My skin was stinging and burning, both ways, tried to apply it immediately also wait until my skin is completely dry. None of them worked. Finally managed to make it work. I use it after cleansing to fully dried skin, then apply a moisturizer. This is my experience. Hope it helps someone.
Happy Tuesday! I love azelaic acid for my hyperpigmentation and acne
Happy Tuesday
Dr Dray you are the best! Can I apply moisturiser after applying Azelaic Acid? Thank you ❤
I literally just AA TODAY! So informative. ❤
@drdray what brand has the foam formulation. I loved the Finacea foam but was told it was discontinued
I can listen to you all day
Dr. Dray, what products to use in the evening routine when you need to cut back from Tazarotene. I was already doing only every other day, and now I need to cut back even more because of peeling. Wouldn’t it be better to go back to Tretinoin? My doctor left me on Tazarotene but with over the counter Adapalene in between days. I’m 50yo and suffer from blackheads. I wonder if you could do a video about what ingredients or products to use the evenings one can’t use prescription retinA. Thanks!
Hello Dr. Dray . Happy Tuesday 😊💕
Morning!
What are your thoughts about applying yoghurt on the face?
Facetheory has Lumizela which has 15% AA. I love that it is within the therapeutic index of 15-20%.
love your advice, many thanks
How much of the foam should I apply?? I think I’m using too much some days. Thanks for the info!
Would it be ok to a video on up to date Roseaca skin care please ?Thank you for your interesting video today?
In the meantime, The Budget Dermatologist and Dr. Daniel Sugai have recent videos on this.
I will watch lovely You Tubes on BART to today's show. Happy Tuesday! 💜💜💜
Have fun!
What do you think about mixing 10% azaleic acid with bpo?
Doctor, what about potassium azeloyl deglycinate (PAD)? And is cream with 2% kojic dipalmitate + 5% PAD be effective for melasma or it is better just 10% azelaic acid serum?
Dr. Dray- I just adore all of your videos. I was diagnosed with mild rosacea last year, and I found azelaic acid on my own through research. I brought it to my derm. But my insurance would not approve to cover the prescription, so she prescribed me antibiotics- but I will NOT take them for the reason you addressed in your video. I have been using an over the counter 10% Azelaic acid for a while now and LOVE IT. it’s my favorite skincare ingredient and the only thing (except sulfur- another holy grail) that really helps the redness 💗 I wish 20% azelaic acid was more accessible!!!!
Amazing video, as always 💗♥️💗♥️
Can’t they do a pa?
Is this safe to use if you have vitiligo? I have some PIH on my face from acne but will it trigger my vitiligo since it’s a lightening ingredient?Thank you.
Dr.Dray please help! I use VitC and Azelaic acid in the morning which one goes first? If i can use them at the same time?
Dr. Dray can Finacea help with keratosis pilaris along with moisturizer and spf?
Happy Tuesday Dr Dray…see you tomorrow x💙🤩
You too!
I've wondered about the benefits of azalaic acid. This is right on time because because Retinol doesn't seem to be helping the hyperpigmentation in spots that I have. Thanks for covering so much ground here and I will check out your other vid on this ingredient. Happy Tuesday 🌞🌷
Can you give us an update if you’ve tried it?
Im also on tretinoin but I’m struggling with hyperpigmentation after my pimples heal so I’m wondering if i should give it a try
@@mehh1h I haven't tried it yet, because I don't have a serious problem with dark spots, but from glancing over some of the comments it seems to help a lot of people.
HAPPY TUESDAY dR Dray and everyone . Thanks so much . Have a fabulous day love to mom and Tybee xoxoxo
You too!!
Greetings Mary Ann Gonzalez hope u r well n Happy Tuesday😀👍💜….
Happy Tuesday mary ann Gonzalez. Hope you're enjoying your day and doing well.
@@whitneybrown4067 enjoy my friend xoxoxo
@@db-gb5xi enjoy my friend xo
I love that she includes drug store recommendations. If I lived in her area, I would definitely hire her as my doctor.
What are some moisturizers and sun screens that are good to layer on top of azeleic acid without leaving a white cast on skin of color?
What if you have tret cream and azelaic acid gel, which would be best first to put on?
I love the PC Azelaic acid
👍🏼👍🏼
Please make a pregnancy skin care routine for acne/youthful look
Thank you.
can salicylic acid cleanser (like cerave for acne) be used before applying ordinary azelaic acid?
Thank you Dr. Dray. I’m allergic to hydroquinone and azelaic acid has been a great ingredient for my Melasma!
How often do you apply it for your melasma?
@@allthingsreview777 I use it every night along with my Retin-A.
Hello! Can i use azelaic acid and Clindamycin together? Pls help
Is It good to improve small pitted acne scars?
Morning Dr Dray hope u r well n 🖐Hello Every1 n Happy Tuesday😀n what a Wonderful Vid…. thanks n This is Gonna b so Insightful🔥👍n Continued Blessings to All💜….
Morning!
Happy Tuesday Whitney Brown. Have a lovely day and be well.
Greetings d b hope u r well n Happy Tuesday😀👍💜….
can you talk about perifollicular elastolysis please
I'm using tropical faded so can I also use azelaic acid
I was diagnosed with Rosacea this year and have been using the RX azelaic acid faithfully for six months.. that is until my insurance decided I no longer need it and won’t cover it! It’s definitely made a HUGE improvement for my intense flairs, and made my redness less noticeable.. can’t tell you how many times I’ve been asked “wow are you sunburned?” Or “I can see you’ve got some sun”.. meanwhile I literally am indoors 75% of my life lol.
Great video, thanks Dr Dray! You answered my questions about using it with other actives!!
I'm actually going through the worst flares of rosacea. I use Azelaic acid from Paula's Choice because I can't go to the doctor and get prescription strength. What else do you use for rosacea? Any suggestions would be greatly appreciated.
Can’t you ask your dr to do a pa?
How much would it cost where you are to pay out of pocket? I ask because it’s pretty cheap where I am. $40 CAD. A tube lasts me about 4-5 months.
@@goldenheart2667 oh I’m sorry to hear that! It’s rough I know, but the two things I’ve tried recently that really help alleviate the redness are the Cetaphil “Redness Relieving” night moisturizer and La Roche-Posay’s “Toleriane Dermallergo” ultra soothing repair moisturizer.. I use them together at night and am amazed at how good that combo is! Hope this helps🤍
@@RachelJane101 hi there, it would cost 150$ a tube which is way too much for me!
9:27 Another reason of the stinging I've heard from my pharmacist friend is the challenging formulation. It's very difficult to dissolve azelaic acid properly. So in some not well formulated products there's partial extra high concentration which can lead to irritation.
I personally use the 15% one from Isispharma and never have problems due to their patented formula. The Ordinary 10% and Facetheory 15% sting like hell.
Yeah, the ordinary AA is awful
I use Acmed AzA 20% and the stinging was minimal.
I mix it with my cerave pm before i could use it
A have the 15% azelaic acid and it stinged/tingled for the first two weeks but now I seem to be used to it.
Is there a video on azelaic vs Tranexamic??
hello doctor i need a little help i did pyruvic acid and lactic acid peel i still have 5 sessions,, AND i have hyperpigmentation is it good ? or should i ask them to change the acids ?
i will be so thankful if u replayed :D
Thank you so much Dr. Dray! I am using Cos De BAHA Azelaic Acid for 2 months now due to my Rosacea & I am very happy with the result😊 plus . 02% Retinol(using 2x, a week) thank goodness no irritation from it.❤️.... God Bless!!!
Dr.dray, I have perioral dermatitis and currently taking doxycycline 20mg with metrogel and differin. Getting pretty bad now as its been a couple of years. Derm has recommended azelaic acid now. Can i still take the doxy? And do i stop metrogel/differin?
My dermo has me using both azelaic acid cream and metronidazole cream .75%, I also use Retin A at night and my 66 year old skin is almost line free and my mild rosacea is under control. I wish some of my capillaries were gone but I can have a laser treatment, just haven't done so yet. Great video!
Wish it worked on those damn blood vessels!
For how long have you used it ?
Red light ( I have Lightstim device) helps capillaries on the sides of my nose disappear, BUT I have to hold this device longer than 30 min each side. I’ve tried lasers, but my capillaries quickly reappear, I would say few days after laser treatment.
@@ddgm89 retin a for 30 years, the other 2 for about 2 years.
Do you use both in once or one morning one evening?
I use prescription azelaic acid (20%) for over 3 years, I have really bad rosacea and melasma and this is literally saving my life on the daily basis. Nothing came even close before and trust me I tried everything. Thank you for this video it is really helpful as I was worried sometimes if it is ok to use long term but every time I tried to stop, all my symptoms come back
I use the Cream at 15% because the Gel was to drying for Me! But I have used it for Year's! So yes you can use it forever! I also use prescription Tretinoin Cream at the highest strength at 0.01%, you should have your Dermatologist give you Tretinoin Cream as well, together they are a POWER HOUSE! I'm also going on Hydroquinone in December as well! I got that Glass Skin Girl 😉 You CAN TOO!!! We are Lucky because we actually have a Dermatologist, instead of buying over-the-counter crap that doesn't work!
Can you give some insight regarding your experience, I have been wondering if azelaic acid would cause facial hair growth? Has that been the case during those 3 year?
I have been meaning to try it but some online claims about facial hair made me think otherwise
is it okay to use both azeliac acid and salicylic acid?
Hi the beautiful pretty Dc. My question is can I add on my night routine the ordinary Azialic acid suspension 10% with my differing gel? I can’t add in the morning routine because in the morning routine I use vitamin C serum with Niacinamide…
Please please please answer…..????❤❤❤
Thank you for all of your videos, they have helped me establish a proper skin care routine and have seen such a huge difference. I would love to see you do a review of the brand Face Theory, specifically their moisturizers. I have used their products for a year or so now and I like them however I would LOVE to hear your feedback about whether they are actually formulated well? ❤
I have mild Rosacea and acne. When I use Azelaic acid, my skin gets red and tingles/itches for about a minute or 2. This only happens around the nose, mouth, and btwn the brows. Then I moisturize and use tretinoin with no issues.
Does anybody know if you can buy 20% azaleic acid without a prescription in Mexico?
So excited to watch this, I'm using prescription strength for my acne and few days back i wasn't able to tolerate it, i watched your previous video and got hope ❤
I just have 2 question that do i need to wash my face twice a day or just in evening it's fine, i do have cystic acne getting it treated by azelaic acid and topical isotretinoin eryhtromycin gel on alternate nights?
Second do you recommend double cleansing with kosey speedy cleansing oil if I'm using skin aqua milk sunscreen and just washing face in evening with bioderma sensibio gel moussant
Twice a day cleansing isn’t necessary. Double cleansing is a personal preference
I recently got a prescription for Aklief as my skin was not very tolerant of trentonion. I am currently loving the samples they gave me.
I am concerned as the prescription is over $700!
Does anyone have information for pharmacy in other countries that have been used?
Or have any tips to get it less expensive. Its not covered under my ins policy over age 36.
Thank you!
I use the 15% gel. Can I safely wear this to the beach with sunscreen?
I've been using Dermalogica azelaic acid along with tretinoin & my results are phenomenal. I only use tretinoin every other night, but azelaic acid I use every night along with my purito ceramide moisturiser & spf 50 in morning 😊
You use the azelaic acid along with the tretinoin? One on top of the other ?
@@MariosPOSim sure you can do that
Ok I just got prescribed that and I’m kind of scared have you had any problems when you started using it?
@Andreasplace hmm yeah when I started using for 1st time it felt bit tingly n my skin did go bit red but once my skin got accustomed to it everything was fine, just start using it once or twice a week 1st then bump it up slowly 🙌
@MariosPOS yes but u have to slowly work it in so your skin can tolerate it, like tretinoin I used it once a week for 6 weeks n slowly I increased it 🙌 slow way is the fast way 🫡
Hi Dr. Dray, can you do a review on the brand Musely for dark spots. I get this ad constantly on Instagram and tik tok. I was wondering what your take is on this cream
I don't think she does stuff on those types of businesses (see her video, sponsorships I turn down [& the reasons why]).
I have been using Fincea Gel (Azelaic acid) and minocycline for 9 days now. So far so good, keeps my acne at bay. Noticed my pimples and acne have improved.
What does the minocycline do?
@@21407l it stopped oil production and kills bacteria
Hi! I just want to know if azaleic Acid sting my hyperpigmentation face, will it help or will it worsen my face?
Thank you for everything you do for us! I know you recommend the Gold Bond Age Renew Retinol Cream. Is it ok to use that cream on chest and back for breakouts?
I have acne, and my doctor prescribed Azeliac acid, but I also have asthma. If the Azeliac acid exacerbates the asthma, is that temporary, and will it go away after the Azeliac acid is discontinued?
I don’t have the pustules but only flushing and redness, my doctor prescribed this for me today…will it help?
Hi Dr Dray thank you for this new upload 😊 Can you sandwich Azelaic Acid to reduce sensitivity will it still work?
I have layered azelaic acid on top of 3 thin layers of moisturizers and had no issue! :)
Derms have said you can use azelaic acid on top of moisturizer, if needed.
@@db-gb5xi Thank you 😊
I feel AZ helps control my oily nose, just using 10 % now, getting RX for 15%
My doctor prescribed azelaic acid for pregnant women ❤
