Hello Jerry,

I am glad that you have found relief from rosacea. But, I do want
to caution you that ETS is not for the treatment of rosacea. It is
for the treatment of a very specific form of neural flushing. It
should only be used as a last chance treatment (and with the
understanding that more than 50% of patients will experience
bothersome side effects). Once again, I am glad for you, but I am
concerned that ETS surgeons are now advertising this treatment over
the Internet as a treatment for rosacea -- this is not true and very
misleading.

Geoffrey
