For Rosacea "Amazing product! I woke up one morning with red bumps all over my cheeks. It took me 3 months to figure out it was Rosacea. After spending $1200.00 on IPL treatments only to realize my skin looked great for about 2 weeks then back came the redness and bumps. The dermatologist kept saying it will improve after the capillaries are gone. (Yeah right). Nothing but lost hope and money. Then decided to try Metrogel, a sample given to me. Made me extremely red and irritated. At this point, I was so depressed thinking there was no hope. Decided to try the last sample the dermatologist gave me, it was Finacea. Yay! Within hours, bumps & redness gone. Miracle cream... 7 years & still using... Love it."

For Rosacea "I started using this a fortnight ago, and I am very impressed! My rosacea was triggered by the birth of my first child, I used Metrogel with good results for approximately 4 years. After my 2nd child, Metrogel was no longer effective. I have struggled for 4 years, resorting to Tetralysal when things got really bad. In between, my skin was red, with constant small pustules that took over my cheeks and nose. Makeup was difficult as the skin texture was rough, and it would slide off and look scaly and patchy. The doctor suggested I try Finacea. I have used this for 2 weeks, and for the 1st time in years, my skin is spot-free! The texture of my skin has completely changed and is now smooth and soft. I still have some redness, but it’s mostly from previous spots and is like scarring, which is starting to fade. Makeup sits on my skin much better now and wears off more naturally, and I don’t have to wear so much! I also feel like it’s reduced some of my fine lines! Amazing!"

For Rosacea "When I found out that my Finacea Foam Rx was going to cost $275, I turned it down. Then I decided to buy a tube and see if it really worked. I was immediately impressed with the product. It not only clears up the burning and redness, but it also makes my skin smoother and softer. On a Dec 2016 trip to France, I asked a pharmacist if there was an equivalent in France. In fact, they had the exact same product in cream form instead of foam. And the price was only 30 Euro, I brought 4 tubes home to last me until my next trip to France. I swear by Finacea!"
