Rosacea
What is rosacea?
Rosacea is a common skin condition that causes redness and visible blood vessels on the face, often affecting the cheeks, nose, and forehead. It can also cause irritation, dryness, and in some cases, pimple-like bumps. The exact cause of rosacea is unclear, but it’s often linked to genetics, environmental factors, and lifestyle triggers like stress, sun exposure, and spicy foods.
How we treat rosacea
Our approach focuses on managing symptoms and preventing flare-ups, giving you smoother, calmer skin.
We use advanced laser technology, like the Derma V laser by Lutronics, to target the blood vessels responsible for redness and inflammation. This precision treatment works beneath the skin's surface, effectively reducing visible blood vessels and preventing flare-ups from becoming a recurring issue.
What to expect during treatment
Initial Consultation
We start with a thorough skin assessment to understand the severity of your rosacea and discuss your treatment options. This allows us to create a customised plan to suit your needs.
Laser Treatment
During the treatment, advanced laser technology is used to target the blood vessels causing redness and inflammation. Each session lasts around 20–30 minutes, and you may feel mild warmth or tingling.
Post-Treatment Care
After the session, you may experience mild redness or swelling, which typically fades within a few hours. You’ll be given clear aftercare instructions to ensure optimal results and comfort during recovery.
Who can benefit?
Rosacea can affect people of all ages, but it’s most common in those with fair skin and those aged between 30 and 60. In fact, up to 5% of the population have it, so it’s quite common. Hormonal changes, stress, environmental factors, and sun exposure can trigger or worsen the condition, but with the right treatment, it can be effectively managed.
If you’re struggling with persistent redness, visible blood vessels, or irritation on your face, specialist treatment could provide significant relief. Whether your rosacea is mild or more advanced, we offer effective care to reduce flare-ups and improve skin health.
