Rosacea is a skin disorder accompanied by redness and flushing of the
skin, skin sensitivity, blood vessel formation and vascular dilation.
It usually appears in later adulthood, though it can appear earlier. What
causes Rosacea is not known, though it seems there is a family history
associated with this problem and with acne.
Patients who seek a doctor's care are often prescribed drugs. Now there
is a new option using FotoFacial, a non-invasive medical laser-like device
which delivers gentle pulses of intense light to the skin. It offers for
the first time an effective treatment to reduce redness and flushing,
vasodilation and dilated capillaries without drugs, while also benefiting
wrinkles, lines, large pores and other skin problems.
