Question 1

Hi doctor, I've been using Faiza cream for 3 months, and it's really helped clear up my pimples and black marks, plus my skin got a lot fairer. But I came across some information online about side effects like skin cancer, and now I'm really worried. I'm thinking of stopping the cream, but I'm not sure if that will cause any issues. Will anything bad happen after I stop using it? Please let me know.

Question 5

My doctor also preferred aziderm gel but I brought aziderm cream.in use this cream instead of gel is any heating or any prob to my skin

Accepted Answer

Aziderm contains azelaic acid, which is commonly used to treat certain skin conditions like acne. The primary difference between a gel and a cream formulation lies in their base composition. Gels are usually water-based, tend to be lighter, and can be more suitable for oily or acne-prone skin. Creams, on the other hand, are often oil-based, thicker, and might be more appropriate for dry or sensitive skin.

Using Aziderm cream instead of gel should generally be safe, but keep the following points in mind:

Skin Type Compatibility: If you have very oily or acne-prone skin, a gel might penetrate better without leaving a greasy feeling. If your skin is more on the dry or sensitive side, a cream might be more soothing.

Irritation Potential: Both formulations can potentially cause some irritation, especially if your skin is sensitive to azelaic acid. Watch for redness, stinging, or peeling. If you experience significant discomfort, consider discontinuing use or reducing the frequency of application.

Application Tips:

Apply a thin layer to the affected area.
Start using it once daily to see how your skin reacts, then gradually increase to twice daily if needed.
Moisturizer: If you notice dryness, applying a non-comedogenic moisturizer after the cream may help.

Sun Protection: Ensure you use adequate sun protection, as azelaic acid can make your skin more sensitive to the sun.

Question 6

Which cream is good for fairness without causing any side effects, and can be used long-term, especially for oily skin?

Accepted Answer

For fairness and to address oily skin in the long run, you can consider using a cream containing "Kojic acid" and "Niacinamide". One such cream is "Kojivit Plus Gel". It can be applied twice daily on the affected areas after cleansing the skin. Remember to use sunscreen during the day while using this cream.
