Sesderma Azelac RU Serum is undoubtfully one of our best sellers of all time. In fact, it’s so famous in Spain (where Sesderma is from) that one unit is sold every 30 seconds. Consequently, as soon as the brand officially hit the UK, this serum instantly sold out. So, what is this serum and what does it do in order to make it so famous?

What is Azelac RU used for?

Azelac RU is one of the anti-dark spots ranges from Sesderma. It contains a terrific blend of depigmenting actives such as azelaic acid and tranexamic acid. As all of them target different ways in which pigmentation appears, this means that pigmentation is less prone to show up on the skin. As the star ingredient is azelaic acid, this serum is particularly effective in post-inflammatory hyperpigmentation. All in all, it’s amazing for those pesky post-acne dark spots and other spots that appear after inflammation has faded. Lastly, it’s also perfect for those who suffer from melasma and other UV-light-induced hyperpigmentation. One study showed it was able to reduce hyperpigmentation in vitro up to 70%.
