Choosing a Treatment

Rosacea is managed in different ways depending on the main symptoms. Topical gels and creams are often used for spots and inflammation, while other treatments may help reduce persistent redness. In some cases an oral treatment may be recommended. As rosacea varies from person to person, our clinical team can help match an option to your symptoms. Avoiding known triggers, such as sun exposure, alcohol and spicy food, can also help.

FAQ

Can rosacea be cured? Rosacea cannot usually be cured, but symptoms can often be controlled well with the right treatment and by managing triggers, helping the skin look and feel calmer.

What makes rosacea worse? Common triggers include sunlight, hot drinks, alcohol, spicy foods, stress and extremes of temperature. Identifying your own triggers can help reduce flare-ups.

How long until I see results? Many rosacea treatments take several weeks to show their full effect, so it is worth using them consistently as directed before judging how well they work.
