 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.
