An Azelaic Peel utilizes azelaic acid, a naturally occurring dicarboxylic acid found in grains like wheat, rye, and barley. It’s a multifunctional ingredient particularly beneficial for sensitive and reactive skin, effectively treating conditions like rosacea, acne, and various forms of hyperpigmentation (including melasma and post-inflammatory hyperpigmentation). Azelaic acid works by reducing inflammation, exhibiting antibacterial properties, normalizing keratinization (skin cell turnover), and inhibiting tyrosinase (the enzyme responsible for melanin production). This results in a calmer, clearer, and more even-toned complexion. At Cosderma Skin Clinic, Malad Mumbai, we offer gentle yet powerful Azelaic Peel treatments.
