Product introduction

Siroskin Cream is a medicine used to treat facial angiofibromas, which are small, benign tumors appearing as reddish or skin-colored bumps on the face. It works by reducing abnormal cell growth and inflammation. This helps shrink the angiofibromas and prevents further progression.

Use Siroskin Cream in the dose and duration prescribed by the doctor. Clean and dry the affected area before application, then apply a thin layer of the medicine. Avoid contact with the eyes, mouth, or open wounds. Use it consistently as prescribed, and do not stop the treatment without consulting your doctor, even if you see improvement.


The most common side effects of Siroskin Cream include mild redness, itching, burning, or irritation at the application site. These effects are usually temporary and subside as your skin adjusts to the treatment. If they persist or worsen, inform your doctor. To minimize side effects, apply it exactly as directed and avoid using excessive amounts.


Inform your doctor about any other medications, creams, or skincare products you are using to avoid potential interactions. Avoid using Siroskin Cream on broken or infected skin, as it may worsen irritation. If you are pregnant, breastfeeding, or have a history of skin allergies, consult your doctor before starting this treatment. Siroskin Cream may increase skin sensitivity to sunlight, so avoid prolonged sun exposure and always use sunscreen while on treatment.

Benefits of Siroskin Cream

In Treatment of Facial angiofibroma

Facial angiofibromas are small, benign tumors that commonly appear as reddish or skin-colored bumps on the face, particularly around the nose and cheeks. Siroskin Cream inhibits abnormal cell growth and inflammation and helps treat facial angiofibroma by reducing the size, redness, and thickness of the lesions. This way it helps improve appearance, supports skin health, and reduces the need for surgical interventions.

Side effects of Siroskin Cream

Most side effects do not require any medical attention and disappear as your body adjusts to the medicine. Consult your doctor if they persist or if you’re worried about them

How to use Siroskin Cream

This medicine is for external use only. Use it in the dose and duration as advised by your doctor. Check the label for directions before use. Clean and dry the affected area and apply the cream. Wash your hands after applying, unless hands are the affected area.

How Siroskin Cream works

Sirolimus works by inhibiting the mTOR (mammalian target of rapamycin) pathway. By blocking mTOR, sirolimus reduces abnormal cell growth, angiogenesis (formation of new blood vessels), and inflammation, which are key factors in the development of angiofibromas. This mechanism helps decrease the size, redness, and thickness of the lesions, improving their overall appearance and preventing further progression.
