Sure. Azelaic 15% helps fade hyperpigmentation and acne scars if you’re consistent. Takes a couple months to see results

Perfect. Thank you for the answer. And the 15% gel would be the best alternative? If so I would need to get the prescription for it, if it’s the best one.

idk maybe buying the AZA somewhere would be better than performing ozonolysis at home

I meant like getting a prescription from the doctor to get the 15% gel version as it’s only available that way. Could get the 10% serum online but have heard good things about the 15% gel

Yes will do

but If it doesn't work you can try niacinamide 10%, tret (low dose), or vit C. AHA/BHA a couple times a week helps too. Just don’t stack too many actives at once

depending on where u live, getting 5% Tranexamic acid would be better cause it dont need prescription and the efficiency is quite the same, but all depends on where u live

Thank you for the advice! Will try to get the azelaic acid prescribed, if not possible then I’ll just buy the serum instead. I was thinking about combining the AZA with niacinamide, which concentration would be best? 5%?

I live in Sweden. I feel like it shouldn’t be too hard to get it prescribed as it’s just a gel. And I have a bit of visible hyperpigmentation scars. If I can’t get it prescribed I will probably just buy the serum online
