Rosacea Overview

Is Rosacea a contra indication for Endopeel Treatments?

3 Types of Rosacea

Rosacea is a common chronic skin condition that primarily targets the face. Rosacea is characterized by facial flushing, persistent redness, papules, pustules, and tiny visible red blood vessels, also known as telangiectasia. Rosacea often starts on the nose, cheeks, and chin, but it can travel to the ears, back, and chest. In some rare cases rosacea may also affect the eyes.

 

 

Vascular Rosacea

  • A redness of the skin , which can be a contra indication for Endopeel treatment

  • Visible blood vessels or teleangiectasies which can be a good indication for Endopeel Treatment as endopeel is sclerosant for little vessels 

Inflammatory Rosacea

It is characterized by 

  • a redness
  • a swelling : as the rosacea is a chronic inflammation with too many swelling periods, Endopeel is in such case an absolute contra indication
  • the appearance of papules and pustules

Ocular Rosacea

  • an irritation and redness of the eyes
