ROSACEA

Rosacea is a long-lasting disease that affects the skin, and can reach the eyes if severe enough. The disease causes redness of the skin along with pimples. It generally affects only the face, but in rare instances it can affect other places. Rosacea is common in women and people with fair skin. It mainly affects middle-aged and older adults, though there are outliers.

Symptoms of Rosacea

• Redness of the Face
• Red lines under the skin
• Easily Blushing
• Inflamed blood vessels
• Swelling of the Nose
• Acne/Pimples
• Thickening of the skin
• Red, itchy eyes that affects vision

Laser Treatment for Rosacea

If you have visible blood vessels, the pulsing light of our laser treatment can shrink them. Thickening skin can be removed, and permanent redness will be considerably reduced. Many patients had a 50 percent reduction after a treatment, and others can even reach 100 percent. Patients who treat their hardening skin earlier tend to see the best results. There is some minor pain caused by the treatment, but many patients can deal with it without an anesthetic. Our Brooklyn, Queens, and Long Island locations are always available to answer any questions you have. Contact us today if you need more information or want to book an appointment.
