  1. Acne Rosacea is basically a unique skin disease which affects the middle third of the face. It develops in the form of red rashes which commonly exist on cheeks , forehead ,chin and lower half of the nose. The red rashes occur because of bumps ,skin blemishes and pimples. The small blood vessels in the affected area become extremely visible and tiny red lines(telangiectasias) appear on the skin. It results in swelling of the nose and development of excess tissue called Rhinophyma.

    The Cardinal cause of Acne Rosacea is not known till date. There are certain things which make Rosacea bad to worse like Sun exposure, strong winds, spicy food, strenuous exercise, change in humidity, change in weather and emotional factors such as stress, fear, anxiety, embrassment. A mite sometimes found in baldness may play a vital role in the development of Acne Rosacea. The bacteria Heliobacter Pylori (that is linked with stomach ulcers) and drugs prescription like Vasodilators (that tends to widen the blood vessels) have also been thought to possibly aggravate Rosacea.

    Symptoms of Rosacea include burning sensation, Vascular Rosacea, Inflammatory Rosacea, and other symptoms involving the skin, eyes, and nose.The symptoms generally begin in adults between the ages of 30 and 60.

    The drug prescription will be depend on how your skin looks. The medicine used for the treatment of Rosacea can be antibiotics, which can be taken in the form of tablets. Your family doctor may also advice you to take some antiboitic gel or cream known as Metro Gel (metronidazole). To make your skin better, the treatment may take at least two months. You can follow up your treatment with Gel and also take some amount of oral antibiotics. It is difficult to examine that how much time you will require for the treatment of Rosacea. Patients can also resort to Laser treatment which is used to remove the enlargment of blood vessels on your skin.

    Hi

    I recently purchased a beautyskin lamp, i have suffered with acne and mild rosacea for years now and needed a product that could help both, the beautyskin has 3 red tubes for the rosacea and 3 blue tubes for my acne, i have used it for three months and cant believe the reults, my acne has gone, and the rosacea is a lot better than it used to be. I have decided to swap the blue tubes in the lamp with 3 more red tubes to treat rosacea alone, the company i brought it from sent me these the next day so i am going to use it as before with all red bulbs in. As my acne has gone no longer need it for that alone!!

    Fantastic!!
