Vaniqa is a prescription-only cream that reduces hair growth from the follicles (hair roots), providing a long-lasting solution to unwanted facial hair.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch2\u003eUsing Vaniqa\u003c\/h2\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eApply a thin layer of Vaniqa twice a day, at least 8 hours apart (e.g. morning and evening).\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eClean and dry the areas of the skin where you will be applying the cream. Apply a thin layer of cream and rub it in thoroughly until it disappears. If possible, do not wash these areas of skin for 4 hours after application. Wash your hands after application and wait at least 5 minutes before applying make-up or sun cream to the same area.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch2\u003eWhere to use Vaniqa\u003c\/h2\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eVaniqa is designed for use on your face. It should not be used on other areas of your body.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eAvoid contact with your eyes, the inside of your nose or your mouth. If you do get Vaniqa in your eyes, mouth or nose, rinse well with water.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch2\u003eHow Vaniqa works\u003c\/h2\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThe active ingredient in Vaniqa is eflornithine. This acts on the base of the hair follicle where it reduces new growth by acting on an enzyme involved in hair growth.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eVaniqa is not a depilatory (hair removal) cream. You can continue your usual hair removal regime while using Vaniqa, if you wish.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch2\u003eTime it takes to work\u003c\/h2\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eIt may take 2-4 months before any difference is seen. Unlike other hair removal creams, which  dissolve existing hair, Vaniqa tackles the problem at the source by reducing new hair growth at the follicle. You should stop using Vaniqa if you see no results after 4 months and contact your doctor.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch2\u003eVaniqa side effects\u003c\/h2\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eSide effects are uncommon and usually mild. Sometimes Vaniqa can cause acne, as well as stinging of the skin, tingling, soreness, and redness. It is unusual for treatment to be discontinued because of these side effects.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eFor full information about correct use and side effects, see the \u003ca href=\"https:\/\/www.medicines.org.uk\/emc\/files\/pil.6398.pdf\" rel=\"nofollow\" target=\"_blank\"\u003epatient information leaflet\u003c\/a\u003e.
