Suffer with Rosacea? You’re not the only one.
Rosacea is a common, often chronic, skin condition that mainly affects the face. Whilst symptoms are active, one can expect to experience flushing, burning and stinging sensations, permanent redness, spots and the development of small blood vessels in the skin. The exact cause of Rosacea is unknown. However, there are many possible answers as to what could trigger this skin concern and make it worse such as exposure to sunlight, stress, strenuous exercise, hot or cold weather, hot drinks, alcohol or caffeine and spicy food.
Treatment of Rosacea
Different treatments can help to control the symptoms. You can avoid known triggers, try creams and gels or even oral medications but in my experience with helping patients tackle the dreaded symptoms of Rosacea nothing has worked better than one of our top non-surgical treatments here at The Banwell Clinic, Dermalux LED phototherapy.
This fantastic treatment is non-invasive, pain free and has no downtime. It harnesses the power of pure light to accelerate the skin’s natural rejuvenation and repair processes. As well as helping sooth and reduce the symptoms of Rosacea, it is clinically proven to also help other skin concerns such as acne, eczema and psoriasis. The secret is it has 3 corrective wavelengths of light:
LED Red, this light soothes redness and irritation, reduces fine lines and wrinkles, increases hydration, shrinks large pours and restores radiance.
LED Blue, is a powerful antibacterial light, it helps treat acne and blemishes without irritation, prevents breakouts, normalises oil production and importantly is a UV free alternative for eczema, psoriasis and dermatitis.
Near infra-red, this light relieves pain and inflammation, helps reduce scarring, tightens and firms the skin as well and helping reduce pigmentation for a more even skin tone.
For the best outcome we combine all 3 together for rapid, enhanced results and we can target multiple concerns in just one session. Please see the picture below, this patient had suffered with Rosacea for years, she thought she had tried everything and had nearly given up hope. She came to The Banwell Clinic and started her recommended course of Dermalux treatments and after just one treatment her skin felt instantly calmed, the heat had died down and the redness had reduced, within just two weeks these were the amazing results.
