Azelan MD Skin Peel

The Azelan MD is a medical-grade superficial peel containing a powerful 20% Salicylic Acid and 20% Azelaic Acid blend. Unlike general peels, it is specifically designed for oily and acne-prone skin, as well as those suffering from rosacea. It offers antifungal, antibacterial, and anti-inflammatory properties to stabilize the skin.

The treatment works in two stages. Salicylic acid (a BHA) penetrates deep into the pores to dissolve oil blockages and neutralize bacteria. Simultaneously, Azelaic acid works on the skin’s surface to inhibit melanin (fading acne scars) and reduce the inflammation associated with rosacea. Together, they accelerate skin metabolism to reveal a smoother, clearer texture.

Azelan MD is a superficial peel, meaning downtime is minimal. You may experience a mild tingling sensation during the application, followed by slight redness. Over the next 2 to 5 days, you may notice some light peeling or dryness as the skin renews itself. We recommend using a high-quality SPF and specific post-peel homecare provided by your practitioner.

While a single treatment will improve skin clarity and reduce oiliness, we recommend a course of 3 to 6 treatments for patients with active acne or chronic rosacea. During your consultation, we will create a bespoke plan, typically spacing treatments 4 weeks apart to achieve optimal, long-lasting results.
