Sadly, we still don’t know a whole lot about rosacea. This condition occurs in mid-life and features facial redness along with the appearance of itchy skin bumps. If left untreated, the problem can get worse over time, causing you to develop inflamed papules and pustules on your cheeks and nose. 

This condition can feel embarrassing and distressing for those struggling with it. If you struggle with this condition, an aesthetic treatment may be the right choice for you. At SkinMD, we offer a variety of devices and services for the treatment of redness and benign pigmented lesions. If you’re interested, schedule a free consultation at one of our Massachusetts offices today.

How Does Rosacea Occur?

Rosacea develops when changes occur in a person’s immune system. A protein called cathelicidin peptide is the main cause. When the body produces too much of this protein, it inflames the skin, leading to enlarged vessels and irritation. Genetic factors, environmental factors, or a combination of both can trigger this immune response.

Since rosacea has multiple causes, it is difficult to pinpoint one main trigger.

MEET THE TEAM

Skin MD has a beautiful atmosphere, friendly staff, affordable pricing, and any treatment your skin needs. I received the Venus Legacy treatment (a collagen-boosting treatment) from Shannon and had a wonderful experience. Not only was it like a warm massage for my face, but this treatment gave IMMEDIATE plumping, increased blood circulation, and made my skin glow! I will definitely be coming back for all my skin needs and medical-grade skin care. I recommend it to everyone!

The staff are so welcoming and comforting. They take time to listen to your needs and they do not pressure you into doing anything you don't want to do. They also take time to explain the process and their decision making to you so that you have all the facts.

~ Lauren M.

Friendly, fast, and professional service at the highest quality. Really impressed with the results of their services, and my technician is very knowledgeable and helpful when I have any questions. They made sure I was fully educated on the services I received and perform check-ins to ensure my skin heals properly. Also, the most convenient location in Back Bay!

~ Jules B.

I cannot say enough great things about this SkinMD. The staff was amazing, and their services are amazing. I am so, so happy with how my nose came out, and I am now a lifetime customer of SkinMD and will be recommending SkinMD to everyone I know.

Symptoms of Rosacea

The most common signs of mild to moderate rosacea include facial redness, red bumps that sometimes contain pus, visible blood vessels, and skin irritation. Some people may experience ocular rosacea, too. This illness features inflammation and bumps around the eyes. In either case, the condition may feel uncomfortable and be difficult to live with.

Treatment Options for Rosacea

At SkinMD, our treatments can serve as a great option for treating rosacea. The use of specialized FDA-approved lasers, intense pulsed light, and certain other advanced skin care treatments allows for safer treatment and less potential downtime. You may need several sessions for the best results. When you come in for your consultation, we will take the time to work with you and determine the best regimen for long-term results

On top of treatments, we also recommend that you use broad-spectrum sun protection, recognize your triggers, and take care of your skin.
