Oxymetazoline calms visible redness
Oxymetazoline narrows the small blood vessels in your skin, the ones behind the persistent flushed look of rosacea.
Ivermectin targets the bumps
Ivermectin reduces the inflammatory papules and pustules of rosacea and acts on the Demodex mites linked to them.
Niacinamide steadies your barrier
Niacinamide 4% supports a calmer, more resilient skin barrier, which rosacea-prone skin often lacks.

About Rosacea Cream (Oxymetazoline + Ivermectin)
Rosacea shows up as two problems at once: persistent redness and inflammatory bumps. This cream pairs oxymetazoline, which constricts the dilated vessels behind flushing, with ivermectin, which targets the inflammation and mites tied to rosacea bumps. Your provider reviews your skin first. Compounded by a US-licensed pharmacy.
- Oxymetazoline for persistent redness
- Ivermectin for inflammatory bumps
- Two rosacea mechanisms in one cream
- Real pricing up front, discreet shipping
Oxymetazoline is an alpha-agonist that constricts facial blood vessels; ivermectin has anti-inflammatory and anti-parasitic activity; niacinamide supports the barrier. Compounded by a US-licensed pharmacy.
Oxymetazoline constricts vessels
It tightens the dilated facial blood vessels that make skin look flushed and red.
Ivermectin reduces inflammation
It lowers the inflammatory activity behind rosacea bumps and targets the Demodex mites linked to them.
Niacinamide supports the barrier
It helps calm reactivity and reinforce the skin barrier while the other actives work.
Redness can look calmer within hours while the bumps improve over several weeks.

What the research shows
The actives in your cream have each been studied on their own for rosacea. This exact compounded combination has not been tested as a single product, so the research below reflects the individual ingredients, studied at their own strengths.
40% vs 12%
Across two randomized, vehicle-controlled pivotal trials, ivermectin 1% cream cleared or nearly cleared rosacea in about 38 to 40 percent of patients, versus 12 to 19 percent on vehicle.
Stein et al., J Drugs Dermatol 2014
2-grade
In a randomized, vehicle-controlled pivotal trial, oxymetazoline cream produced at least a two-grade improvement in persistent facial redness significantly more often than vehicle by day 29.

What to expect
Redness can look calmer within hours of application as vessels constrict; the bump-related improvement builds over several weeks.
- Day 1
Start your cream
Apply a thin layer after your provider confirms your prescription. Redness can look calmer within hours as vessels constrict, and some mild stinging at first is normal.
- Weeks 2 to 4
Bumps begin to settle
The inflammatory papules and pustules typically start to improve in this window with daily use.
- Weeks 8 to 12
Fuller effect on bumps
Improvement in bumps tends to build further through the second and third months of consistent use.
- Ongoing
Maintain your results
Your provider tunes your routine to keep redness and bumps controlled with the lowest effective schedule.
