Rosacea is a chronic inflammatory skin condition characterized by redness and rashes, typically on the nose and cheeks. It is more prevalent in middle-aged and older adults, women (though it tends to be more severe in men), and people with fair skin, though it may be underdiagnosed in those with darker skin. Factors contributing to rosacea include heightened skin sensitivity, environmental stressors like UV light, and skin microbes, with both genetic and environmental factors playing a role.
One treatment option is IPL (Intense Pulsed Light), which uses controlled light wavelengths to reduce inflammation, redness, pimples, and uneven skin tones, providing a gradual and natural improvement. Another treatment is the Venus Viva™, which uses NanoFractional RF (radio frequency) to stimulate collagen and elastin fibers beneath the skin's surface, enhancing the skin's natural healing process.

Our team of skincare experts is dedicated to providing personalized care tailored to your specific type of rosacea to help you achieve calm, healthy skin.
Persistent redness and visible blood vessels, with possible burning or stinging sensations. Flushing episodes can be frequent and prolonged, contributing to overall skin sensitivity.
Redness with swollen red bumps and pus-filled pimples, often mistaken for acne. These symptoms can cause significant discomfort and may be accompanied by oily skin.
Thickened, bumpy skin, typically on the nose, leading to an enlarged, bulbous appearance. The texture of the affected skin areas can become rough and uneven over time.
Redness, irritation, and swelling of the eyes and eyelids, potentially causing severe complications. Symptoms may include dry eyes, a gritty sensation, and sensitivity to light.
Hard, brown or yellowish bumps on the cheeks and around the mouth, less inflamed but persistent. These lesions can be difficult to treat and may cause long-lasting changes to skin texture.
Severe burning and stinging sensations, possibly involving the central nervous system. This type can be particularly challenging to manage due to its neurological origins and the intensity of symptoms.
Redness, burning, and acne-like breakouts resulting from long-term use of topical corticosteroids. Symptoms often flare up after discontinuation of steroids, making management tricky.
Features of multiple subtypes, requiring tailored treatment for various symptoms and triggers. Patients may experience a complex array of symptoms, necessitating a comprehensive and individualized approach to care.
