ROSACEA
TREATMENTS FOR REDNESS AND BREAKOUTS
Over time, small blood vessels and tiny pimples appear with rosacea, but there are no black or whiteheads (open or closed comedones). Rosacea is most common in fair-skinned adults between the ages of 30 and 50. Triggers include hot drinks, spicy food, caffeine, alcohol, extreme temperatures, alcohol-based skin products, and sunlight.
Treatment of rosacea includes a variety of topical medications, washes, and antibiotics. Laser therapy, called pulsed dye laser (PDL) can effectively treat telangiectasias and intense pulsed light (IPL) can reduce redness.
