In Reply to: LINDSAY, Please read & anyone else using AZELAIC ACID? posted by DEBBIE on November 08, 2000 at 14:31:24:

: Hi Linday,

: How are you? I read one of your recent posts regarding skinoren (azelaic acid). I went on the hairsite that carries it and also the inhousedrugstore. What's a bit confusing to me is that it is on a hairsite??? How is it good for the hair and for acne? Confusing! How has your skin reacted to it? Did you have any side effects? Have you actually noticed a difference with pimples and red scars? Sorry for all the questions, I'm just thinking of getting it and am tired of spending money I don't have. I am sure you can relate. By the way are you off the accutane now, if so how is your skin? I am still trying the natural approach, holding out on the accutane. Still scared of the side effects:(
