Our Rosacea Treatment Options
Rosacea can manifest in several ways, from mild flushing to more severe redness and skin sensitivity. At Revitalise London, we offer a range of treatments tailored to your specific symptoms and skin type, focusing on both symptom management and long-term control.
1. Topical Treatments
Topical treatments are often the first step in managing rosacea. These medications help to reduce inflammation, calm redness, and improve the appearance of the skin.
Types of Topical Treatments Include:
- Metronidazole: An anti-inflammatory gel or cream that helps reduce redness and swelling.
- Azelaic Acid: Minimises inflammation and the appearance of bumps and pimples associated with rosacea.
- Brimonidine Gel: Temporarily constricts blood vessels in the skin to reduce redness.
2. Oral Medications
For more severe or persistent rosacea, oral medications can help control symptoms from within, particularly when rosacea involves inflammatory bumps, pustules, or ocular involvement.
Available Oral Treatments Include:
- Antibiotics: Such as doxycycline, reduce inflammation and can help with moderate to severe cases of rosacea.
- Isotretinoin: Used in rare, resistant cases of severe rosacea to reduce oil production and inflammation.
3. Laser and Light Therapy
Laser and light-based treatments are highly effective for managing the visible symptoms of rosacea, such as persistent redness and visible blood vessels (telangiectasia). They work by targeting the blood vessels under the skin’s surface to reduce redness and improve skin tone.
Our Laser and Light Therapy Options:
- Intense Pulsed Light (IPL) Therapy: Uses pulses of light to target redness and visible blood vessels, promoting a more even complexion.
- Vascular Laser Treatment: Specifically targets and reduces dilated blood vessels, improving the skin’s appearance.
4. Lifestyle and Skincare Advice
Managing rosacea effectively often involves more than just medical treatments. Our dermatologists will provide you with tailored lifestyle and skincare advice to help minimise triggers and flare-ups.
Lifestyle Support Includes:
- Recommendations for gentle, rosacea-friendly skincare products.
- Advice on dietary adjustments to avoid common rosacea triggers, such as spicy foods and alcohol.
- Stress management techniques to help reduce the frequency and severity of flare-ups.
Your Personalised Rosacea Care Plan
Rosacea affects everyone differently, so our dermatologists take the time to develop a personalised care plan that suits your specific symptoms, skin type, and lifestyle. During your initial consultation, we will thoroughly assess your skin and discuss any potential triggers to create a treatment strategy tailored to your needs.
Your Care Plan May Include:
- A combination of topical, oral, and laser treatments.
- Regular follow-ups to assess progress and make any necessary adjustments.
- Ongoing advice and support to help manage your condition and maintain healthy, balanced skin.
