Facts About Rosacea
Rosacea is a common face rash of adults. It is
an inflammatory disease of the skin, which is
estimated to affect over 45 million people worldwide.
Rosacea begins with people in their 30’s
and may last into late middle age (around age
60). Rosacea is about 3 times more common in females
and may seem to be associated with peri-menopause
in some cases. It is also more common in fair-skinned
people of Celtic or Scandinavian decent.
Rosacea begins with flushing or blushing of the
skin – often triggered by exposure to sunlight,
temperature extremes, spicy foods, beverages containing
caffeine, hot beverages/soups, or alcohol. This
unsightly skin blemish usually occurs on the face
and across the cheeks, nose, or forehead. Rosacea
can also appear on the neck & chest, but not
as often as it appears on the face. People who
suffer from this skin condition offer experience
the following signs of Rosacea:
Rosacea
Symptoms
• Red, sometimes swollen,
skin around the middle of the face - the forehead,
cheeks, and nose.
• Red bumps similar
to acne, pimples or pustules.
• Tiny blood vessels,
similar to spider veins, over the nose and cheeks
that are visible up close.
• Swelling and growth
of the nose, called rhinophyma, and central facial
areas. Swelling of the ear may occur as well

To resolve the redness, flushing, and facial spiders
veins common with rosacea, treatment with a laser
or Intense Pulsed Light/BBL source is easily the
best solution. Prior to the development of IPL/BBL,
treatment by lasers caused significant bruising
on the patient's face. Results were gradual, but
fairly consistent. The IPL/BBL system can deliver
energy to the facial blood vessels without causing
bruising, resulting in resolution of these blood
vessels. More importantly, the persistent flushing
and blushing can now be significantly reduced
with IPL/BBL treatments.
