Rosacea Treatment

If you have rosacea and you are looking for rosacea treatment in Brooklyn, you are in the right place. At Kleydman Dermatology, we specialize in the successful treatment of this skin disease. Many people often mistake this condition for acne in adults, but it is a chronic inflammatory disease that occurs and affect more than 14 million Americans in the US. People often realize that there may be a problem when they blush easily. You may notice that your cheeks become red quite often, even when you are not embarrassed or blushing, per say. Typically, rosacea in its mild form will cause your cheeks to turn a light red, but as time goes on, the condition will progress into complete facial redness, enlarged blood vessels, and red bumps on the face. This skin disease will not disappear on its own and needs treatment to be managed or controlled. If you would like to discuss treatment options, contact our office today to schedule an appointment.

 

What Are the Symptoms of Rosacea?

Since rosacea can start out mild and progress as time goes on, you may or may not see all the symptoms or you may mistake a symptom for something else. This is common and if you think you have rosacea, you should be evaluated by a dermatologist.
Some of the common symptoms include:

  • Spider veins
  • Consistent blushing of the ears, chest, face, and neck
  • Pimples or bumps on the face
  • Chronic facial burning, redness, itching, and edema

While rare, it is possible for rosacea to cause the skin to thicken up and look different than traditional supple skin. This condition is called rhinophyma and can cause bulbous nose too.


Treatment for Rosacea in Brooklyn

There are several treatments for rosacea and patients can receive the correct skin care treatment based on what their dermatologist recommends and their current symptoms. Sometimes, all that is needed is a topical ointment to help alleviate the pain that is felt. Below, we will go over some of the other treatment options available for this skin disease.


IPL

IPL is an effective method of treatment when it comes to rosacea. This treatment is also used for other conditions such as sun exposure and damage, hyperpigmentation, and others. IPL involves using intense light pulses that are emitted onto the skin. These pulses penetrate the deep layers of your skin to kickstart skin cell regrowth and constrict the blood cells.


Chemical Peel

A chemical peel can also be used to treat rosacea. This peel will remove all dead skin cells on the face and leave fresh new skin cells behind.

Traditionally, rosacea can be treated and managed with medical intervention, but unfortunately, it is most commonly the case that the redness is never fully gone. With laser intervention, the redness can be targeted by lasers and diminished with several treatments. Although maintenance treatments may be necessary, the redness is improved significantly.
