What's The Best Skincare Routine & Treatment For Rosacea?

The Truth About Rosacea Treatment

Are you sick of the painful and distressing symptoms of rosacea - but discovering that the possible treatments either don't work, are expensive, require prescription, or have nasty side effects (such as sensitivity to sunlight and cold, damaged and dull skin, compromised immunity, or you feeling sick and out of sorts)?

Sadly the reality is that when it comes to rosacea treatment, most treatments only address one or two symptoms, and end up creating other problems.

As an example - some rosacea treatments dry up pimples and pustules - but leave your skin dry, and covered in eczema. And did you know that retinoids which are commonly used for rosacea treatment and anti-aging may reduce the appearance of pus-filled or red bumps, but can make skin redness and spider veins look even worse.

In fact, rosacea treatment tends to hide the symptoms, and doesn't actually treat the rosacea? That's a very real concern because it masks the fact that behind that symptom relief - your rosacea is extremely likely to be developing into something far more sinister and serious. Something that will be a much bigger deal to treat later.

That redness or flush across your face, cheeks, nose, forehead or chin is just the beginning signs of rosacea (pre-rosacea). Left untreated it can morph into rosacea with acne or vascular rosacea where the skin becomes more sensitive, sore, inflamed, scaly, itchy, the pores become enlargened, pimples and pustules appear. But it can get even worse with bumps, visible thickening of the skin, or red blisters appearing on your nose, cheek, forehead or chin. 

How To Treat Rosacea Effectively

Rosacea affects approximately 414,900,000 people worldwide. Unfortunately there is no cure, but the great news is that there have been significant gains in knowing how to treat rosacea effectively. There are proven ways to manage your rosacea, eliminate the symptoms, and prevent it from getting worse.  

What makes rosacea incredibly hard to treat is that it is more a series of symptoms than a condition, with symptoms and triggers that vary from person to person. Treating one symptom often creates a new different symptom or condition.

So, it's best to treat the causes and triggers. Rosacea is often genetic, but there are a combination of rosacea triggers which can differ for each of us and change over time. 

The key is to understand and eliminate these triggers as much as possible to help prevent overt dilation of the blood vessels, since each time this happens they lose some elasticity. This loss of elasticity results in dilated capillaries on the face, because they remain in a constant dilated stated - giving the telltale redness that rosacea is known for. 

What Causes Rosacea and Rosacea Flare Ups?

Most rosacea sufferers have a genetic predisposition, which is exacerbated by triggers. The most common rosacea causes and triggers which result in rosacea flare ups and breakouts include –

• Incorrect facial cleansing which creates a pH imbalance in your skin
• Wind and sun - extreme heat and cold
• Stress
• Incorrect nutrition – lack of essential vitamins and minerals – and too many trans-fatty acids
• Coffee, spices and alcohol
• Urban pollution
• EMFs (Electromagnetic fields from TV, computers etc)
• Steroids
• Lack of pro-biotics and digestive enzymes
• Makeup and skincare products that include alcohol, parabens, silicones, petrolatum, BHA, DEA, Sodium Laureth Sulfate and Triclosan.

We recommend keeping a diary of your exposure to these triggers and your rosacea to track which triggers contribute most to your rosacea flare ups and breakouts.

One thing that makes rosacea treatment even more confusing is that symptoms may come and go depending on your stress levels, and some triggers and solutions take days to take effect. 

What’s The Best Treatment For Your Rosacea?

If you truly want a rosacea treatment that works (and won't simply hide symptoms) it pays to treat your rosacea holistically with both internal and external treatments.

Here is what we recommend as a holistic rosacea treatment that is highly effective in eliminating flare ups and breakouts, and has the added advantage of being a powerful formula for anti-aging as well - 

• Correct cleansing - we recommend double cleansing once per day, in the evening, with unsweetened natural yoghurt. This avoids over-cleansing or under cleansing, and removes EMFs at night for maximum skin restoration
• The right minerals and vitamins to supplement your nutrition - it's more about what you add to your diet than what you take out - eg a green leafy smoothie daily and good fats found in fish, meat, activated nuts, and seeds. Avoid transfatty acids at all costs such as processed foods like potato chips and chemically extracted vegetable oils. Twice daily pro-biotics.
• High potency skincare products that don't contain the triggers mentioned earlier. It's also important to avoid exfoliants - as these are too harsh for your sensitive rosacea skin. Be careful about your shampoo too
• Reduce stress wherever possible - introduce calming influences such as meditations
• Recommended daily intake of clean water
• Rosacea friendly makeup such as foundations and day creams that include zinc
