Best Online Rosacea Treatments
Here are some top options to consider:
Prescription Telehealth Services
- Curology – Very popular for rosacea; dermatology providers create custom formulas (often including metronidazole or azelaic acid) after an online consultation
- Derrow Dermatology (or similar online derm practices) – Board-certified dermatologists who can prescribe stronger treatments like ivermectin (Soolantra) or brimonidine (Mirvaso)
- Keeps or Hims/Hers – Offer rosacea consultations and can prescribe topical antibiotics like metronidazole
Over-the-Counter Products (No Prescription Needed)
- La Roche-Posay Toleriane line – Dermatologist-recommended, gentle formulas specifically for sensitive/rosacea-prone skin
- Paula's Choice Azelaic Acid Booster – Azelaic acid helps reduce redness and bumps
- iS Clinical Redness Relief – Targets inflammation effectively
What to Look For
- Metronidazole or azelaic acid (proven ingredients)
- Fragrance-free, gentle formulations
- SPF protection (sun triggers rosacea)
My Top Pick
Curology is a great starting point because it's affordable, convenient, and personalizes treatment to your specific skin concerns.
Always consult a dermatologist for moderate-to-severe cases.
