Rosacea is a skin condition that effects both women and men but more commonly females. It also is found more often in fair skinned individuals and may be triggered by foods, alcohol, heat, stress, sun and even exercise. Since these vary with exposure and ingestion, rosacea may be better or worse depending on your environment.
Since some symptoms mimic acne and simple broken facial vessels, it can be hard to identify without a medical consultation. We recommend seeing our trained skin care professionals, as this can be important for correct diagnosis and product recommendation.
Although being dormant in periods, when it is present, rosacea can be a huge problem for you especially in social and employment situations. Dr. Christi and her staff want to help you get this condition under control.
Often a combination of laser and light treatments and topical skin care products are recommended to help you get back to a more normal and healthy appearance.
