Rosacea is a chronic inflammatory skin condition that mainly affects the central face, causing redness, visible blood vessels and sometimes acne-like breakouts. At our clinic in Izmir, rosacea treatment is performed by a board-certified dermatologist with personalized and long-term care plans.
Early diagnosis and appropriate treatment are essential to control symptoms and prevent progression.
What Is Rosacea?
Rosacea typically appears as persistent facial redness, flushing, sensitivity and small visible capillaries. In some patients, inflammatory papules and pustules may also develop.
Common triggers include sun exposure, hot beverages, spicy food, stress and temperature changes.
Types of Rosacea
- Erythematotelangiectatic rosacea (persistent redness and visible vessels)
- Papulopustular rosacea (redness with acne-like bumps)
- Phymatous rosacea (skin thickening, usually on the nose)
- Ocular rosacea (eye irritation and dryness)
Accurate subtype identification is important for effective treatment.
Rosacea Treatment Options
Rosacea cannot be completely cured, but it can be effectively controlled. Treatment may include:
- Topical anti-inflammatory medications
- Oral therapies when necessary
- Laser treatment for facial redness and visible vessels
- Skin barrier repair and medical skincare recommendations
Laser and light-based therapies can significantly reduce persistent redness and dilated capillaries.
Laser Treatment for Rosacea
Advanced laser systems target visible blood vessels and diffuse redness without damaging surrounding skin. Multiple sessions may be required depending on severity.
