Often mistaken for adult acne, rosacea is a chronic skin condition. Although chronic, it can be managed with a combination of personalised skincare treatments and minimising your triggers. Rosacea can span the range of painless flushing, visible blood vessels, red bumps, and pustules that burn and sting. When your symptoms are flaring, your skin is also likely to be sensitive to skincare products. Our targeted red skin/rosacea treatments are designed to soothe your symptoms—and improve your skin tone, texture, and quality.
Most adults develop rosacea and chronic red skin between the ages of 30 and 50, but this skin condition can begin at any age. With our year-round sunshine, we’re a bit more at risk for facial redness.
While there is no permanent cure, you may have long periods when your symptoms are dormant or minimal. Identifying your triggers can extend dormant periods and keep symptoms to a minimum when your facial redness flares up.
There are a variety of topical creams and medications that can be utilized to minimise your inflammation. In addition, you will need to make a few personalised changes to your skincare routine. This may include switching to products designed for sensitive skin and reapplying sunscreen throughout the day.
In addition to standard treatments, we invite you to consider your med spa options. Haven Aesthetics Centre offers a variety of non-invasive treatments that are safe and effective for your sensitive skin.
