What leads to the development of rosacea?
Rosacea is a common skin-condition that often begins with a tendency to blush or flush more easily than other people. Over time this redness becomes permanent and starts to spread and also small but visible blood vessels appear. In severe cases these can be accompanied by inflamed, acne-like nodules. Most often it occurs on the central areas of the face - cheeks, forehead, nose, chin.
This skin condition mainly affects people with Fitzpatrick Scale I and II skin types, i.e. those with light hair and eyes and fair skin, and is less common in people with darker skin color.
Symptoms are more common in women, mainly over the age of 40, but nowadays it affects more and more young people, especially if they are predisposed.
The exact causes of rosacea are unknown, but the symptoms appear mainly due to genetic factors and hormonal changes. The symptoms of rosacea are also frequently linked to gastrointestinal disorders, blood pressure imbalances, stress, frequent and excessive consumption of vasodilator foods and drinks, and disruption of the skin flora or even skin infections.
Initially, the characteristic redness occurs only in certain situations, such as heat, physical activity, consumption of spicy foods, hot drinks, alcohol or stress. In more severe cases, the skin of the nose may thicken, hypertrophy and prominent vascular lesions may develop, which severely distort the face and nose.
What remedies can help to treat rosacea?
Dermatological examination
It is important to consult a dermatologist as soon as the first symptoms of rosacea appear, because rosacea is not just an aesthetically disturbing skin condition, it is a medical condition that requires the involvement of a specialist to treat effectively and prevent it from escalating.
During a dermatological examination with visual inspection and dermatoscopy, we will assess the condition of your skin, identify the underlying causes of rosacea and, during the consultation, our specialist will define a personalized treatment plan.
ZO® Skin Health - Skincare consultation
Unfortunately, rosacea is a skin condition that cannot be completely cured, there is always a predisposition, but with the right care it is possible to reduce the symptoms.
A balanced skin care routine can significantly improve the appearance of rosacea. It is always important to choose gentle products that are suitable for sensitive skin and do not contain irritating ingredients that can make the skin condition worse. UV exposure can also make rosacea worse, so in addition to gentle cosmetic products, it is important to use broad spectrum sunscreen regularly. In our clinic, following a skin diagnostic consultation, we will create a personalized skin care routine for the most effective care of your rosacea.
IPL treatment for rosacea
In addition to enlarged blood vessels, rosacea can also be accompanied by deep nodules and inflammation. However, these can be effectively treated with professional medical aesthetic procedures in combination with the right products. Unwanted redness can be significantly reduced and eliminated, and distracting, tiny vessels can be corrected. IPL treatment is very effective in helping with most of the problems caused by rosacea. The light penetrates into the different layers of the skin without damaging the surface. The treatment completely seals the walls of the dilated blood vessels, which eliminates intense redness, improves skin tone and results in an even complexion.
