Rosacea is a chronic condition mostly affecting facial skin. It presents as chronic intermittent redness of the skin and inflammation. Rosacea is similar in appearance to acne and affects mostly fair skinned people of Northern European origin. Some know it as the “Celtic curse” because it is so common in people of Irish descent. More than 17 million individuals have some degree of rosacea in the US, and more than 45 million people are affected worldwide. Because rosacea imitates intense adult acne it is usually misdiagnosed and mistreated as acne. The parts of the body most affected are usually the face, nose, cheeks, chin and forehead. But it can appear on the neck, back and chest in some cases.
Usually Rosacea will not go away on its own, but it is intermittent with short periods of remission. However, if left untreated, the rosacea progresses to worse. At times it settles on the nose and makes the tip of the nose large with lumps and pustules, and the condition is known as rhinophyma.
Rhinophyma is inflammation and redness of the nose with extensive network of dilated capillaries. Eventually the skin over the nose becomes thickened with enlarged unsightly nodules and bumps. Rhinophyma originates as extreme rosacea.
Because Rosacea can progress and worsen with time we usually treat the condition aggressively, yet gently through:
Free consultation available at four convenient Chicagoland locations in Arlington Heights, Oak Brook, Chicago’s Gold Coast and Naperville.
It crushes and eliminates the dilated unsightly blood vessels of the face.
IPL for spider veins of the face usually takes about 30 minutes.
Occasionally a single treatment will show improvement but usually a few treatments will be necessary to tone down the aggressive nature of rosacea.
It depends on the severity of the rosacea, but normally three treatments spaced two weeks apart are recommended.
None, IPL or laser treatments are very safe and are non-surgical, hence there is no downtime and the treatment does not necessitate anesthesia.
This varies with the severity of the rosacea and how many IPL treatments are completed.
Botox treatment of facial lines and wrinkles.
Avoid harsh cleansers. Antibiotics and anti-inflammatory oral medications and certain specific topical treatments may be prescribed depending on the case and the patient.
We recommend our 4 Max™ facial cream and our all-in-one facial sunscreen and moisturizer, Solaris Day™.
