Rosacea Treatment Q&A

What is rosacea?

Rosacea is an inflammatory skin condition that causes small vessels on the face along with general redness usually seen over the nose, cheeks, and forehead. Rosacea may also cause acne, broken capillaries, or thickened skin in these same areas.

Some people with this inflammatory condition have a type of rosacea that affects the eyes. In its worst variety, it can distort the nose due to drastic enlargement of the oil glands, which is called rhinophyma.

Anyone can get rosacea, but it most often affects adults with fair skin. There’s a genetic link to the skin condition, and you may develop rosacea if it runs in your family. The inflammation tends to come and go, and treatment focuses on reducing flare-ups.

What is rosacea treatment?

Rosacea treatment includes lifestyle changes, medications, and energy-based therapies to reduce or prevent flare-ups. Treatment depends on the type and severity of your skin condition.

Your rosacea may also have triggers, such as heat, food, exercise, changes in weather, or overexposure to the sun. Getting the right treatment plan in place can help keep your rosacea under control. Simply follow your treatment plan, and we guarantee your results.

However, if you’re struggling with severe inflammation or a flare-up, the team at Colorado Skin and Vein can help.

What are energy-based rosacea treatments?

Colorado Skin and Vein is a state-of-the-art center with a large selection of energy-based tools to treat skin concerns. For rosacea treatment, they use:

Pulsed dye laser (PDL)

The team uses the most effective treatment available for rosacea. The pulse dye laser (PDL) is used to remove small facial veins and redness associated with rosacea. The team recommends a series of five treatments to get the best results.

Nd:YAG laser

The Nd:YAG laser uses pulses of light to reduce larger veins associated with rosacea, such as on the forehead and temples. The team also uses this laser tool to treat deeper purple or blue vessels on the face.

CO2 laser

The team may also use their CO2 laser to treat rhinophyma associated with rosacea. This laser tool is used to reshape the nose or retexture the skin to state it was before the effect of rosacea could be seen.
