Well I can only say what has worked for me and that is azelaic acid. It reduced the inflammation/redness and has also made my skin look smoother and more refined.
You can get azelaic acid on prescription from your doc in either 15% gel (Finacea) or 20% cream (Skinoren/Azelex).
Hope this helps.

Sorry about that.
How about a high concentration zinc oxide cream (such as a sunblock formulation 10-20% ZO). I've also found this very helpful and not irritating in any way.
