Top Ways to Eliminate Rosacea without Prescriptions

April is National Rosacea Month which is why we feel it's appropriate to discuss the top non-prescription ways to treat and control the symptoms of Rosacea. This was created to bring awareness the the symptoms of Rosacea as it effects over 16 million American men and women. What is Rosacea? Rosacea symptoms include persistent redness, easily flushing, bumps or pustules on the cheeks, chin & forehead and broken capillaries on the cheeks and chin. Rosacea can affect all skin types but individuals with fair skin who tend to flush or blush easily are believed to be at greatest risk. Often times Rosacea is treated with prescriptions such as metrogel. Here are our top ways to eliminate Rosacea without Prescriptions: Intense Pulsed Light Photofacial: IPL can safely and effectively reduce dilated blood vessels, persistent redness or flushing, and acne-like breakouts. Green Light used on handpieces such as the Palomar Max G handpiece is attracted to the redness and blood in the broken capillaries. Once the light is absorbed & transferred into heat, the redness fades & the broken capillaries constrict and fade over 2-3 weeks. While patients see an improvement after one treatment, up to 5 treatments can be needed for optimal results. A recent clinical study showed 83% of patients experienced reduced redness, 75% had less flushing and improved skin texture, and 64% reported fewer acne-like breakouts after five treatment sessions.
