THE SCIENCE

How it works, and what it costs you.

Azelaic acid clears pores, reduces acne bacteria, and calms redness and post-acne pigmentation. Mild tingling, itching, or dryness can occur at first, but it is one of the gentler options and is often considered compatible with pregnancy (confirm with your physician).

FAQ

Questions, answered.

Still deciding between strengths, or between this and another protocol?

Take the 60-second quiz
Am I eligible?

Eligibility is a clinical decision. After you check out, you'll complete a medical intake; a US-licensed physician reviews it and determines whether this protocol is appropriate for you. If it isn't, you're fully refunded.

Is azelaic acid compounded?

No. Azelaic acid 15% is an FDA-approved prescription strength, filled by a US-licensed pharmacy. It was approved for rosacea; using it for acne or dark marks is off-label, a common practice where a physician prescribes an approved medication for another use.

How do I use it?

Apply a thin layer to clean, dry skin, usually twice a day or as your physician directs. It layers well under moisturizer and sunscreen.

What side effects should I expect?

Tingling, itching or dryness can happen at first and usually fade within a few weeks. Rarely, it can lighten skin where it is applied, so tell your physician if you notice this.

Can I use it during pregnancy?

Azelaic acid is one of the options physicians often consider during pregnancy, but it is a decision for your physician. Tell them if you are pregnant, planning a pregnancy, or breastfeeding.

How is it shipped?

Discreetly, in plain, unbranded packaging, straight from a US-licensed pharmacy. No special handling needed; store it as your pharmacy label directs.

What if I'm not approved?

You're charged at checkout and fully refunded if a physician doesn't approve your protocol. Where possible, your physician may suggest an alternative that fits your case.

Is there anything extra to pay?

No. The price includes the physician review, your medication from a US-licensed pharmacy, shipping, and messaging with your care team. There is no separate visit fee.

How quickly will it arrive?

Once a physician approves your protocol, the pharmacy prepares your prescription and ships it to you. Your dashboard shows the status and tracking at every step.

Can I cancel or pause?

Yes, there's no lock-in. You can pause or cancel your protocol anytime from your dashboard before your next fulfilment.
