Rosacea Management

There are no specific test to diagnosis rosacea, however we will base a diagnosis on the history of your symptoms and an examination of your skin. You may have tests to rule out other conditions, such as psoriasis, eczema or lupus. These conditions can sometimes cause signs and symptoms similar to those of rosacea. If your symptoms involve your eyes, your doctor may refer you to an eye specialist (ophthalmologist) for evaluation.

Treatment for rosacea focuses on controlling signs and symptoms. Most often this requires a combination of good skincare and at times prescription drugs. You may need to try different combinations of topical skincare and in-clinic treatments to find a treatment programme that works for you.

Laser therapy and other light-based therapies may help reduce the redness of enlarged blood vessels. Repeat treatments may be needed periodically to maintain the improved appearance of your skin.
