Rosacea is uncureable I'm told, but what can I do to avoid it.?

Avoid the triggers that cause the redness, such as spicy foods, sun (use sunblock), alcohol, caffeine, and anything else you notice causes you to flare up. They will vary by individual. I've also found a fantastic, over the counter product called Calm, Cool and Corrected. It's made by DermaDoctor. You can get it from either Nordstroms or Sephora, or their website directly. Here's a link. http://www.dermadoctor.com/product.asp?p鈥?/a>


I've been using this stuff for about 6 months now, and my face looks better than it has in years. About the only way I'd get it any better is to have the lazer treatment done, and I can't afford that.Rosacea is uncureable I'm told, but what can I do to avoid it.?
Lots of information here that may help

I suffer from Rosacea too, and I take long term antibiotics to stop it attacking my nose. They work well but can only be obtained from the Doctors
DONT EAT CHOCOLAT ITS EVIL FOR IT! ITS LIKE SENDING A FAT KID TO BOOT CAMP FOR THE SUMMER NOT HAPPY!';
';Oral tetracycline antibiotics (tetracycline, doxycycline, minocycline) and topical antibiotics such as metronidazole are usually the first line of defence prescribed by doctors to relieve papules, pustules, inflammation and some redness.[5] Oral antibiotics may also help to relieve symptoms of ocular rosacea. If papules and pustules persist, then sometimes isotretinoin can be prescribed.[6] Isotretinoin has many side effects and is normally used to treat severe acne but in low dosages is proven to be effective against papulopustular and phymatous rosacea.





Flushing and blushing can be reduced with a centrally-acting 伪-2 agonist clonidine. Clonidine has side effects of drowsiness and lowered blood pressure. Monoxidine can be used as an alternative to clonidine as it has less side effects but most people find to be less effective. Beta-blockers like propanolol are similar to 伪-2 agonists but work better for anxiety and chronic social blushing than general flushing triggers. If flushing occurs with red wine consumption and with other foods containing high amounts of histamine then antihistamines such as cetirizine or loratadine may help.





People who develop infections of the eyelids must practice frequent eyelid hygiene. Daily scrubbing the eyelids gently with diluted baby shampoo or an over-the-counter eyelid cleaner and applying warm (but not hot) compresses several times a day is recommended.





Dermatological vascular laser (single wavelength) or Intense Pulsed Light (broad spectrum) machines offer one of the best treatments for rosacea.[7] They use light to penetrate the epidermis to target the capillaries in the dermis layer of the skin. The light is absorbed by oxy-hemoglobin which heat up causing the capillary walls to heat up to 70潞C, damaging them, causing them to be absorbed by the body's natural defense mechanism.





CO2 lasers can be used to remove excess tissue caused by phymatous rosacea. CO2 lasers emit a wavelength that is absorbed directly by the skin. The laser beam can be focused into a thin beam and used as a scalpel or defocused and used to vaporise tissue.';
use a green base under your foundation it covers it really well
