Rosacea

Many people struggle with rosacea, but unfortunately, there is still very little known about this condition. This issue tends to appear in mid-life and is often accompanied by facial redness and irritating skin bumps. This issue can get worse if left unaddressed and cause the appearance of inflamed papules and pustules on the face. If these skin issues seem familiar to you, our team at Healing Light Aesthetics is ready to help! Our Rutland, VT center features the Elite iQ™ Laser device which can accurately assess your skin concerns and deliver treatment.

How Does Rosacea Occur?

Rosacea typically occurs when the immune system is somehow altered. A change in a protein called cathelicidin peptide is often the most common cause. The skin tends to become inflamed and enlarged vessels begin to develop along with irritation when a lot of this peptide is created in the body. This unusual immune response may be triggered by genetic, environmental, or a combination of both factors. Rosacea is understood as a multi-factored skin condition, making its root cause difficult to determine. At Healing Light Aesthetics, we can accurately identify the symptoms of rosacea and provide you with the comfort you deserve.

What Are the Signs?

Typical symptoms of this condition include redness, irritation, and the appearance of red bumps filled with pus. Some people may even experience what’s called “ocular rosacea,” a specific strain that is accompanied by inflammation and bumps around the eyes.
