For Rosacea "This stuff is amazing. It cleared up my skin after two weeks and now I use it only twice weekly for maintenance. I was previously treated with oral antibiotics which did nothing but upset my stomach, or other useless expensive creams. After reading the research on it made sense why it worked so well for me."

For Rosacea "I'm 21 & I started getting rashes (pustules, acne-like) on my face about eight months ago. I didn't notice a worthwhile difference with Soolantra until week five. I used to put Soolantra over my entire face (despite only really being affected in the t-zone) but it didn't alleviate any redness in my cheeks so I stopped putting it everywhere. I got a 10% azeilac acid cream solution to substitute Rhofade (Rhofade made it worse), and it has very noticeably combatted the redness! I only put Soolantra on my t-zone now & sometimes skip areas if there are no issues. The key: use the tiniest amount- do not use Soolantra like lotion! I wash & lotion (lotion only non-Soolantra covered areas at night) in the morning after applying azeilac acid. I'm on week 7 now & despite eating a lot of spicy food yesterday, my skin looks clear. Do your research and don't let some of these expensive medications fool you. Soolantra definitely has the capacity to work. Good luck."

For Rosacea "I've been on Soolantra for just under a week and I am now starting to see results. The pustules and redness on one side of my face has greatly diminished and the other side isn't far behind. My rosacea was really getting me down so I am thrilled that there is now something out there that can effectively treat this condition! :-)"

For Rosacea "I was diagnosed with rosacea 15 years ago. It was well controlled for the last 10 but suddenly out of the blue about six months ago, I got a bad flareup. Dermatologist prescribed Soolantra. I've been using it twice per day for about a month. No effect whatsoever - positive or negative- on the redness or tiny bumps. To make matters worse, a tube of this useless stuff costs $700 because it's not covered by insurance. I know they say you should use it for 3 months so I'll continue using it and update this review later if anything changes."

For Rosacea "I’m in my 5th week with Soolantra and not sure about the redness which won’t disappear. The bumps reduced and the skin is silky it is clear an improvement but I’m not sure if I’m getting worse instead of better. The redness is not uniform and I am afraid to cover it not to get an allergic reaction. My dermatologist said I should go on for the next 2 months with Soolantra but I am loosing my faith. "

For Rosacea "In the 3 years of dealing with Rosacea, I found Soolantra after doing research weekly for the last year and this medication is the only thing that has worked! I’ve been on it for 8 weeks and my facial redness has stopped 100%!"

For Rosacea "I'm 69 years old, have had episodes of Rosacea occasionally for 19 years. Metronidizole cream had only moderate effect. My doctor gave me a sample of Soolantra, and my skin cleared up in just a few days. I continue to have no symptoms after using up the sample tube, which I used very sparingly to make it last. The price is so high and my Part D plan doesn't cover it, so that's the down side."

For Rosacea "Ok I have been using this product since Jan 15th 2018 everynight. I cannot tell you how much it has turned my world around! My skin looks 100% improved. I will continue to use it until my dr tells me to stop. It beats taking antibiotics for 3 years! My body is healing itself from all the antibiotics taken in the past. CRAZY! but please persist with this, it will help you too. Good luck :-)"

For Rosacea "The road to overcoming my Rosacea started with me taking ivermectin as prescribed. I also took oracea. The first dose of ivermectine seemed to clear up a little bit, the bumps and lesions that covered my face and the heat, but a few days before taking the second dose, it went back to how it was before. I took the second dose and it cleared up a little, but again went back to normal until I continued use of oracea and started applying topical soolantra with it. My Dr. recommended blending soolantra with CeraVe cream - use Am in the morning and mix Soolantra in with PM. Wash with CeraVe in-between applications so pores don't clog. 2 months later I'm practically back to normal. I'm a fair skinned red-head, 32 years old, and happy to have my face back, compared to its puffy, bumpy, leathery and hot mess that it was before taking ivermectin, soolantra, and oracea."

For Rosacea "Ordered from online pharmacy as my Dr in the UK would not prescribe it. Having suffered with Rosacea for nearly 15 years using different treatments I was fed up and after research decided to treat myself based on demodex mite theory. I wash face with dove sensative soap and lukewarm water and after drying with paper towel apply a thin film to problem areas in may case cheeks and nose. Only been using 2 weeks and after a couple of initial flare ups in first 10 days (possible reaction to mite die off and associated bacteria) things definitely seem to be getting noticeably better so really pleased just hope it continues. I also changed my pillows and pillowcases I sleep on to help."

For Rosacea "I have been using Soolantra for 6 days now. I have read the reviews and I am trying to hang in there but my outbreak is horrible. Don’t want to leave the house. I am experiencing burning, itching and tingling. My cheeks have bumps all over them with pustules and extreme dryness. It is sore to touch. I am trying to suck it up hoping that the reviews I have read are true and it will get better? Has anyone gone through this? I had mild rosacea so this horrible."

For Rosacea "I've been suffering from rosacea since I turned 40. I'm now 55. I have constant break outs. I Have avoided sun and other triggers.Decided to try another Dermatologist she recommended Soolantra. I picked a tube after using discount card and insurance my fee $35.00. I would pay $300 it worked. Just after a few days my skin was clearing up . It works don't walk but run to your Dr. and get a tube of soolantra. The constant break outs were very upsetting. Now I feel much more confident !"

For Rosacea "At first I thought Soolantra did not work, but that was only because I had another problem--due to my inhaler, which had given me a yeast infection on my face. I got worse and worse, then solved that problem, and began Soolantra again. It actually seems to make my skin look better on contact. There is such a difference that I use it in the morning or just before I go out, and people have noticed. I don't have an extreme case of rosacea, but the redness, large pores, itching and burning are responding to treatment. I only put it on the affected areas, to conserve it, and I had some samples, so that is why I estimate only $2.00 a month. With insurance, a tube is $60."

For Rosacea "I have been using Soolantra for 2 months and honestly it is the best thing I have tried so far. I had papulopustular rosacea (mostly on my cheeks) and now it is almost completely gone. The bumps were gone after roughly 1 month and now the redness is also more than 90% gone. I am just so happy I gave this a try. Also, one thing that you have to keep in mind: GIVE IT TIME. I did see progress from the beginning but also some occasional flare ups. Just stick with it. It's worth it!"

For Rosacea "I would 100% recommend trying soolantra if you have rosacea. I’ve been using it once a day for about 2 months and my skin hasn’t looked this good in years! I have struggled with rosacea pimples for about 2 years and nothing had worked at all. Now, I haven’t had a single pustule! Even the little ones go away overnight. Definitely give it a try!"

For Rosacea "My friend told me about it and I asked the Dermatologist. He agreed that this was fabulous, but said it would take about 4 weeks. I believe it completely cleared my face in slightly less. I OCCASIONALLY get a pustule and I put it on and it is gone. I know this is expensive, $610 here, but worth it. I talked to the Pharmacist yesterday and they said Ivermectin is just as good $200, so I got it."

For Rosacea "I've used soolantra for 3weeks, but my skin was getting worse and worse progressively so I stopped using it. It got better since but still had redness and itchy pustules popping up every day. Now my skin is in much much better condition. My regime is changed diet (less sugar), washing with Avene moisturising cream cleanser (super gentle), Dermiq capilite night serum (saved my skin literally! No more itchy bums and less redness) and taking calcium tablets."

For Rosacea "I controlled my type 2 rosacea for several years with Finacea twice a day. Then I had a huge flare up that lasted a few months. My skin was dry/flaky yet oily with enlarged pores all at once, huge pimples, with moderate redness. I tried soolantra and I’m very happy with the results. I use soolantra at night and Finacea in the day. It took 3 months of consistent use—one week I’d be clear and smooth, the next week I’d have a huge flare up—but now my skin is clear and smooth. My flaky/dry/oily situation has cleared up. My doctor said it might not help with redness but it actually did. I found using a benzoyl peroxide 2.5% cream on top of soolantra when I had a flare up was good for the pimples. I’m staying on soolantra indefinitely because you don’t build up a resistance to it (like with antibiotics) and I have had no negative side effects."

For Rosacea "I am 45 years old and have suffered with an itchy, red and irritated face since 16 years of age. I have been on Accutane, Retin A and too many antibiotics to count. Thank goodness for Soolantra. I have normal skin. I have used it for about a year ( 3 months daily and once every 2 or 3 weeks after that) and the itching is gone. Pustules are GONE. I never knew the texture of my skin could be normal. Thank You Soolantra."

For Rosacea "I've had rosacea for almost 20 years and have been on all kinds of antibiotics. Most I am allergic to the last was erythromycin which worked okay. But the Dr though it was time for me to get off the antibiotics. I've been on Soolantra for about 6 months and my face has never looked better. I'm thrilled with everything about it. You do use just a dab so a tube will last at least 3 months if not more. I do have insurance that helps a lot with the cost but what I do pay is well worth it."

For Rosacea "I don't normally do any "social media" reviews - only if something is really bad or really good. Well, Soolantra is really "good"! Have been on Oracea for almost two years and it is doing what it can, and I'm happy with it. However, my Dr. added Soolantra four months ago to use daily. Well .... what a difference this had made. My face is soft, the white and blackheads are basically gone. Would highly recommend - give it a month and you will see and feel the difference. Has helped with the redness of nose and face as well."

For Rosacea "I have had Rosacea Type 2 (papulopustular) for about 5 years. I have tried many treatments. Nothing really worked. Some things helped a bit, but only modestly or temporarily. I have been using Soolantra for only a week, and already my rosacea has almost completely cleared up. It's quite amazing after struggling with this for years. It's not completely gone yet, but close to it, and getting better by the day. I know not everyone gets results this fast, so I'm lucky. I'll keep applying it for a few months (a few demodex lifecycles). Couldn't be more delighted though. For what it's worth, I tried many other things before this. In decreasing order of effectiveness: 1) Tea tree oil I do also have some rosacea / demodex symptoms around my eyes. Soolantra can't be applied there, but Cliradex and Optase wipes containing a tea tree extract can. So they are helpful for clearing demodex there. 2) Factor 50 suncream applied at night."

For Rosacea "My insurance doesn't carry Soolantra, but my doctor was able to give me a coupon that brought the price down to nothing. I'm not sure how that works, but I'll take it. My experience with it is that I need to be fairly targeted where I use it on my face, because if I even get a little in a location that I don't need it, it will *cause* weird little white head bumps all over in that area. I keep it completely far away from my eye area and the area anywhere near my lips. So, it's basically just for the apples of my cheeks and my nose, which are my main Rosacea areas. It's really reduced lesions and also scaling I used to get in those areas."

For Rosacea "Wow... Doc prescribed this at night, and Mirversa in the morning, along with a sulfur face wash for my rosacea. Mirversa is going in the trash. Soolantra does the trick! My face feels so soft, and cooler with this ointment!"

For Rosacea "I have been putting Soolantra on at night and Tacrolimus on in the morning on my Rosacea and its almost all gone. I have had this condition for nearly 20 years, my face used to be flawless, but with my anxiety and stress of looking inflamed, pimply and scaly all day, every day. I have always scratched for itch relief and popped all of the white heads. After a week of using these 2 creams, I do not need makeup! While I am slightly pink, its waaaay better than I have looked in a long time, so to me, I am ready for the catwalk! Fingers crossed this lasts long term. In the past metronydizole, desonide and ketoconazole were my go too’s but I was only ever told not to use them longer than 2 weeks at a time, which of course I used all the time because they helped in some fashion, and once I would stop my rosacea would come back full force within a day or two."
