Azelaic acid usually comes in form of a cream or gel and can be used as acne treatment combined with other natural ingredients, vitamins and minerals. Even though the Azelaic acid is consider to be a natural -non chemical substance, it can be dangerous for the skin if applied in high concentration.

The acne bacteria which causes acne has difficult time building a resistance to the Azelaic acid therefore the anti-acne creams with the azelaic acid in their ingredients used to treat acne. Acne products with the Azelaic acid can help clear and prevent acne that is caused by bacteria.

Acne creams with Azelaic acid are most effective in mild and moderate forms of acne.  The efficacy of acne creams with the Azelaic acid, comparing with other acne creams (such as benzoyl peroxide, tretinoin, and antibiotics) is much higher and safer as far as negative side effects. As we all know that the chemicals and antibiotics can only be used for very short period of time (2-3 weeks), creams with Azelaic acid and other natural ingredients are the most effective because can be used a s long as needed with no side effects.
