For Rosacea "Ok, so I started on Soolantra back in December. I was on Rozex before, once daily, but it had stopped working and was giving my skin this horrible, waxy texture. I started using Soolantra by itself. The first month was awful. A lot of blackheads and small red bumps. I went to my dermo, and she told me to apply Soolantra OD at night and Rozex OD in the morning. My skin continued to be terrible for about 3 months. And then all of a sudden, it cleared up. I also have acne, so once in a while, I'll get some cysts, but nothing like before (I get these around the time I begin to menstruate). However, I also gave up drinking alcohol in January, and this perhaps also helped. Well, the combination of not drinking and using these creams twice a day has really worked very well. I still have redness, but nothing like before. And my skin feels so soft."

For Rosacea "I loved it very much in the beginning. Saw improvements within 1 week, which is weird for me after so many failed meds. However, not sure why. About 6 months into it, I'm starting to see more bumps, redness, and itch again. I still wear it daily, but it's been 1 month with symptoms back, and it's not helping anymore. I'm gonna give it a few more weeks to see if I’m not discussing with my doctor. I hope it works again as well as it did for so long. It actually disappeared. My insurance covered it just fine, $60 copay."

For Rosacea "After seeing a dermatologist regarding my face flare-ups, I have rosacea. I’m 37 and have started Soolantra and Oratane. OMG!! My face after night 1 of cream has had a massive flare-up and looks terrible, too embarrassed to go out. I have been reading people’s reviews on here to stick with it for the long haul. I just hope it settles, it's itchy, white pus, and redness all over. Don’t realize how bad the bugs are."

For Rosacea "Applied Soolantra cream samples to entire face and neck for 3 nights. Developed intense itching, redness, and multiple red bumps and pustules on my cheeks and neck after the 3rd dose. I went from mild redness with no bumps to broken out and itching like crazy. I sure hope this goes away soon! Waiting on a call back from my dermatologist to find out what to do."
