Rosacea

Rosacea is a common skin disease that causes redness and flushing on the face. Small blood vessels and tiny pimples may appear around the reddened area. Rosacea affects men and women of any age, but can appear in adulthood and is sometimes mis-labelled as adult-onset acne.

Making a skin evaluation appointment and identifying rosacea is the first step to controlling it. Topicals and antibiotics will often stop the progression of rosacea. And our laser Photorejuvenation system will help reduce overall redness and broken veins.  Dr. Irwin has posted an article on Skintour.com, her website on skin care, that gives lots of information on the causes, triggers, and treatments of rosacea.
