Rosacea is a chronic skin condition that often leads to persistent redness, visible blood vessels, and sometimes pimple-like bumps on the face. Beyond the physical discomfort, this skin condition can significantly impact one’s self-esteem and confidence. The unpredictable nature of flare-ups, triggered by factors like stress, sun exposure, or certain foods, adds to the frustration. Individuals with rosacea may feel self-conscious about their appearance, leading to social anxiety or avoidance of social situations.
Thankfully, the team at TKI can help improve your skin and restore your confidence. When you come in for a consultation, we will create a custom treatment plan for your skin type and specific concerns.
How can TKI help me treat rosacea?
At TKI, we treat facial redness with the most advanced aesthetics technology:
- Excel® V+
- XEO®
Excel® V+
The excel V+™ laser offers a range of customizable wavelength modes, enabling our team to target specific areas effectively. Depending on the skin concern, the laser can deliver either short or long pulses. In the treatment of rosacea, short pulses are typically used to address skin discoloration and restore an even skin tone. Additionally, the excel V+™ laser is a safe and effective option for the treatment of hyperpigmentation or fine lines.
XEO®
XEO® skin therapy targets the primary signs of aging like pigmentation, redness, and fine lines and wrinkles on the face and body. Prior to your treatment, your TKI provider will select the laser or light source best suited to target your concern. Whatever your skin tone, whatever your condition, XEO® offers safe, effective treatments for a wide range of aesthetic concerns—all while giving your skin a lift and your confidence a boost.
What causes rosacea?
The exact cause of rosacea is not fully understood, but it’s believed to result from a combination of genetic, environmental, and vascular factors. Genetic predisposition can play a role, as rosacea tends to run in families. Vascular abnormalities may also contribute, causing blood vessels in the face to dilate and become more visible. While the precise cause remains a subject of ongoing research, identifying and avoiding triggers, along with appropriate aesthetic treatments, can help manage and alleviate the symptoms.
What are the triggers?
Common triggers include exposure to sunlight, particularly intense sun or hot weather, wind, extreme temperatures, and humidity. Certain foods and beverages, such as spicy foods, alcohol, and hot drinks, can also lead to flare-ups in some individuals. Emotional stress, anxiety, and high-intensity physical exertion are additional triggers. Skincare products that contain irritating ingredients or aggressive exfoliants can worsen symptoms. Identifying and avoiding these triggers, along with a customized skincare routine and aesthetic treatments, can help individuals manage and reduce the frequency of rosacea flare-ups.
