My derm prescribed me finacea for my acne about a week ago. I also had couple of bumby pimples on my face. I noticed that im getting more bumps on my cheek. Wondering if anyone else has experienced this?

My doc gave me finacea due to brown spots (hyperpigmentation) showing up under my eyes. I just started using it tonight. Please keep me posted those of you using this cream for the same reason. Also, does it cause dry or flaking skin like some other creams that are used to treat acne. I’d hate to have that happen under my eyes. Anyone else use it in the undereye area. I know the skin under the eyes is delicate so worried about applying it there. Thanks so much!

I’ve been using Finacea for about a month now to treat mild rosacea and can see fine hairs now on my face where there were none! No warning of this whatsoever from my doctor, and not anywhere that I could find on the package.

I just got prescribed finacea. I am hoping that it helps with the mild acne and also helps get rid of the left over blemishes I suffered from previous acne.

I have bee using finacea 4 3 wks now and it has made a difference in evening out my skin tone but i do still get breakouts so i guess i will have to take oral antibiotics with the finacea my derm prescribed me doxycycline so hopefully this will work i will keep my fingers crossed!

I have been using Finacea for my acne for about a month now and my skin is so smooth and my acne is gone. If I do get a pimple, it only last a over night and it’s gone completely the next day. I use in every night and every morning. My face is allergic to everything but this is the only thing that hasn’t made me break out and worked for my skin. I use the Cetaphil Daily Cleanser and that works great for me too. I tried everything before and nothing worked. My dermatologist also put me on Minocen which I took for 4 weeks but then started to get an allergic reaction (rash all over my legs three weeks into the treatment) so I took it for another week thinking it would go away but it just got worse, I started getting welts. So I quit taking it, I loved how well it worked and I was afraid that if I stopped taking it, my acne would come back. It’s been a little over a week and I’m only using Finacea now and my skin is so smooth and looks so great, I love it.

Hi
I have been using finacea twice a day for a year now.
I have found no side effects.
I tend to dry my face before i apply it which i prefer.

I agree, it works better if you put it on immediately after drying face when face is still mosit as opposed to waiting for it to be completely dry.
