Solve On AcneCream with 10% azelaic acid
Advanced support for skin with imperfections
- contains azelaic acid, which reduces acne symptoms and accelerates skin healing
- regulates sebum secretion owing to the content of saw palmetto fruit extract and avocado esters
- a combination of three soothing ingredients (lactoferrin, ectoine, and panthenol) accelerates epidermal regeneration and soothes irritations
- hygroscopic ingredients — trehalose and pullulan — help restore hydration in problematic skin
___
Azelaic acid regulates the activity of testosterone in the skin, thus reducing lesions and minimizing discolorations in acne-affected skin.
What makes the AcneCream with 10% azelaic acid special?
Combined action of the acid and plant extracts
Azelaic acid and saw palmetto extract limit excessive sebum secretion and help minimize acne lesions and discolorations, while avocado esters reduce the activity of sebaceous glands.
Ingredients that bring relief to sensitive skin
AcneCream contains lactoferrin, ectoine, and panthenol, which together accelerate epidermal regeneration processes and reduce blemishes, as well as emollients that promote epidermal barrier renewal.
Restored hydration
Hygroscopic trehalose in the product promotes water binding in the skin, which affects its level of hydration, while avocado and sunflower oils help retain water, thus protecting the epidermis from dehydration.
Original formula
The formula of the AcneCream with 10% azelaic acid was designed by our team of experts in the fields of chemistry, biotechnology, cosmetology, and chemical technology with many years of experience in the beauty industry.

Increased activity of 5-alpha reductase*
causes excessive sebum secretion and excessive keratinization. As a result of dermal dysbiosis, too many free radicals are produced, which intensifies inflammation. This is why your skin care regimen for acne-prone skin should include ingredients that normalize the activity of sebaceous glands and sebum secretion, soothe irritations, and help maintain hydration.

Active ingredients
Azelaic acid
Azelaic acid
It is a 5-alpha-reductase inhibitor that limits the conversion of testosterone into its much more active derivative — dihydrotestosterone (DHT). Therefore, it acts as a mild local antiandrogen and helps reduce imperfections in acne skin. Furthermore, this ingredient also inhibits the activity of tyrosinase — an enzyme crucial for pigment production — so it helps even out skin tone and reduce discolorations.
Saw palmetto fruit extract
+Saw palmetto fruit extract
Saw palmetto fruit extract is known as an effective 5-alpha-reductase inhibitor, which can prevent local conversion of testosterone into DHT, and in effect reduce the severity of acne. Acne skin has been reported to have a higher activity of type 1 5-alpha-reductase. This enzyme takes part in the conversion of testosterone to dihydrotestosterone (DHT), which is a more potent androgen than testosterone. Androgens stimulate the activity of sebaceous glands and intensify epidermal keratinization. These factors can increase the risk of new lesion formation.
Avocado esters
+Avocado esters (Butyl Avocadate)
Obtained from butyl alcohol and fatty acids found in avocado oil. They regulate sebum secretion, indirectly contributing to the reduction of skin lesions.
Ectoine
+Ectoine
Used in beauty products to soothe irritation and redness, it also has antioxidant properties and protects the skin against the adverse impact of UVA radiation. It improves hydration of the epidermis. It is a natural postbiotic.
Pullulan
+Pullulan
Biopolymer, polysaccharide produced from starch by the fungus Aureobasidium pullulans. Leaves a hygroscopic film on the skin that prevents excessive transepidermal water loss and provides a toning and lifting effect.
Turmeric root
+Turmeric root
Evens out skin tone and soothes irritations. This strong antioxidant helps even out skin tone and accelerates regeneration and healing processes in damaged or wounded skin.
Trehalose
+Trehalose
Trehalose is mainly known for its capacity to protect proteins and other bio-molecules against stressors: very high and very low temperature, dehydration, and osmotic stress. Increases the level of epidermis hydration and demonstrates photo-protective properties.
Lactoferrin
+Lactoferrin
A protein naturally produced by the human body, essential in the process of building immunity. It is present in many bodily fluids and gland secretions, such as milk, saliva, tears, or mucus. It stimulates the process of keratinocyte differentiation, as well as healing processes in wounds and lesions. It is a protein that can bind with iron ions to increase their absorption in the body.
Panthenol
+Panthenol
A substance that soothes irritations and accelerates skin regeneration. Helps eliminate skin dehydration.
Azelaic acid
It is a 5-alpha-reductase inhibitor that limits the conversion of testosterone into its much more active derivative — dihydrotestosterone (DHT). Therefore, it acts as a mild local antiandrogen and helps reduce imperfections in acne skin.

Expert opinion
Regulating sebum secretion and ensuring hydration is crucial in skin care
Problematic skin often struggles with hyperactive sebaceous glands and lesions, frequently resulting from local (dermal) hyperandrogenism. The ingredients in the Solve On AcneCream with 10% azelaic acid normalize sebum secretion by regulating the conversion of testosterone into DHT, and help minimize skin lesions.

Azelaic acid has anti-inflammatory properties
Azelaic acid demonstrates multi-level therapeutic efficacy in acne — it has anti-inflammatory and anti-bacterial properties against C. acnes and S. epidermidis, but does not cause drug resistance.
Saw palmetto fruit extract demonstrates antiandrogenic action
Saw palmetto extract is believed to have antiandrogenic properties and has been widely used for the treatment of androgenic alopecia.
Lactoferrin accelerates skin healing processes
In vivo studies on mice have demonstrated that lactoferrin accelerates the healing of skin ulcers and stimulates cellular divisions in the epidermis.

Trehalose boosts hydration in the epidermis
Trehalose demonstrates hydrating properties.
Curcumin demonstrates antibacterial and anti-inflammatory properties
Curcumin in turmeric extract has strong antioxidative, anti-inflammatory, and antibacterial properties. Because of this, curcumin has been used to prevent and treat skin aging, as well as skin disorders such as psoriasis, infections, acne, inflammation, and skin cancer.
Ectoine soothes irritations and boosts hydration in the epidermis
Ectoine regulates the kinetics of stratum corneum hydration by intensifying the hydration reaction of keratin.
Panthenol protects the skin against irritation
Clinical studies have demonstrated that using hand balm containing 5% panthenol protects the skin against irritation.
