Azelaic Acid
Introduction
Azelaic Acid is a naturally occurring dicarboxylic acid found in grains such as wheat, rye, and barley. It is widely used in skincare formulations for its anti-acne, skin-brightening, and anti-inflammatory properties. Azelaic acid works by normalizing keratinization, reducing acne-causing bacteria, and inhibiting excess melanin production, making it effective for multiple skin concerns.
It is well tolerated by most skin types and is suitable for long-term and sensitive-skin use.
