Rosacea

Rosacea is a chronic, common skin condition affecting both adult women and men. It often includes symptoms like facial redness, visible blood vessels, sensitive or burning skin, small bumps and pimples, and uneven skin texture. In some cases, rosacea patients also experience rhinophyma (a thick, swollen nose).

Rosacea treatment is multifactorial and needs to be tailored to your unique skin needs. Every person’s rosacea is slightly different and therefore treatment strategies differ based on your unique skin type and concerns. Treatments range from skin care to topical or oral prescriptions to light based devices.

One of the most impactful treatments for many rosacea patients are light-based treatments like Intense Pulsed Light (IPL) therapy. The goal of this treatment is to decrease redness, remove broken blood vessels, and trigger collagen production deep within the dermis for complete rejuvenation and even skin tone. We also work with rosacea patients to build a skin care treatment regimen that improves the skin’s protective barriers, decreases sensitivity and symptoms, and protects your skin.

Limelight IPL (Intense Pulsed Light)

IPL can help to minimize the redness and visible blood vessels associated with rosacea, leading to a more even skin tone. It uses light energy to target and break down damaged skin cells, which can help with redness, pimples, and uneven skin tone. The light is less focused than a laser, so it penetrates the skin less and causes less damage.
