VANIQA is a cream applied to the
skin for the reduction of unwanted facial hair in women. Its active
ingredient is eflornithine hydrochloride. VANIQA is supplied in the
form of a cream and is dispensed in 30 and 60-gram tubes. It can be stored
at room temperature.
HOW DOES VANIQA WORK?
VANIQA’s active ingredient
interferes with an enzyme found in the hair follicle of skin. This enzyme
is used in the metabolism of hair and is a necessary component for its
growth. This slows down hair growth improving the appearance of the area
where VANIQA is used.
HOW DO I USE VANIQA?
VANIQA should be applied twice
daily at least 8 hours apart. Apply a thin layer of VANIQA to the
effected areas of the face and adjacent involved areas under the chin and
rub in thoroughly. You should not wash the treated areas for at least 4
hours after an application of VANIQA.
HOW FAST DOES VANIQA WORK?
With the aid of VANIQA improvement
in the condition of unwanted facial hair growth will occur gradually.
Women using VANIQA should not be discouraged if they see no
immediate improvement. Be patient. Changes to facial hair may be seen as
early as 4 to 8 weeks. It should be noted that improvement might take
longer in some individuals. If no improvement is seen after 6 months of
use, discontinue treatment.
HOW EFFECTIVE IS VANIQA?
Studies showed that improvement in
unwanted facial hair was seen in approximately 60% of patients after 24
weeks of use. Overall, VANIQA statistically significantly reduced the
number of patients bothered by their facial hair and by the time spent
removing, treating, or concealing facial hair.
IS VANIQA A CURE FOR UNWANTED FACIAL
HAIR?
No, VANIQA does not permanently
remove hair or cure unwanted facial hair. It should not be confused with a
depilatory. If you are utilizing a hair removal technique it should be
continued. Nonetheless, VANIQA will help you manage your condition
and improve your appearance.
WHAT HAPPENS IF I STOP USING VANIQA?
Studies show that about 8 weeks after
stopping therapy with VANIQA, hair growth will restart at about the
same rate as before starting this medicine.
SIDE EFFECTS:
VANIQA may cause temporary
redness, rash, itching, burning or tingling at the site of application. If
this happens for a brief period of time the medicine can be continued. If
symptoms persist discontinue use.
