Rosacea

Rosacea is estimated to affect over 14 million people in the USA, many of whom have no idea that they have it, and don't seek treatment. It is characterized by facial redness and may include pimples and small visible blood vessels (Facial Telangiectasia) Environmental triggers can cause the blood vessels in the face to expand and worsen Rosacea. Some common triggers are alcohol, weather extremes, stress, and spicy foods. Left untreated Rosacea can worsen and progress to Rhinophyma, a condition where the nose becomes bulbous, red, and bumpy. Rhinophyma was once associated with alcoholism. While this connection has since been disproven, alcohol consumption can aggravate Rosacea and Rhinophyma.

Rosacea Treatments

While there is no permanent cure for Rosacea, many treatments can substantially improve your appearance. Rosacea symptoms will vary significantly in different people. The doctors at Hughes Cosmetic Surgery can personalize a treatment regimen to fit your unique symptoms. Treatments available for Rosacea include Intense Pulsed Light (IPL) therapy, prescription skin care, laser therapy or a combination of these.
