Greetings all; I did order and try the Diroseal for about 10 days - first as a very small patch and then widespread on my cheeks and chin - I can't say for...
Hi, Is it common of people with rosacea that their "wounds", bug bites or little pimples take a very long time to heal? I got 2 bad bug or spider bites on my...
Dana: How refreshing that your Dr. accepts outside expertise relayed from Geoffrey through you and doesn't pretend like there's nothing more to learn. Most of...
Dr. Nase said that you induce a flush for IPL only after the telangiectasia has been treated. Now, does this mean that you should also not induce a flush...
I was just curious if anyone has had a good experience with the smoothbeam? I have had two treatments, the 2nd one being two weeks ago and I have seen...

I have been using this once a week for the past 6 weeks or so. It's a facial type mask. The first time that I used it, it seemed to make everything a bit more...

This message caught my eye. I asked the RN who gives me IPL about inducing flushs and she told me the cooling gel they use induces one doozy of a flush - that...
A few years ago, I read all the postive posts about laser treatments on this group and a few others. My experience with lasers left me with permanent scars - a...
Hi all, Im trying to find a good dermatologist who specializes in rosacea or at least knows what they are talking about. Any ideas on how I can go about...
why don't folks just use red wine to get a full flush going before IPL? about one ounce induces a massive full face flush in me that lasts for hours! bourbon...

Hi - I have a question for the group. I have mild rosacea that is still not under control. I have tried metrogel and I noticed a slight tingling in my...
That is very dissapointing news. Consultations should be absolutely free. I had a nice chat with Dr. Jay two years ago and he seemed like a stand up...
She is probably wrong. I have had 12 IPL treatments, and the cooling gel did not induce a flush. If anything it causes vessels to contract. I would suggest you...
I have been doing a half-face test for over a week now, washing with Plexion on the left and soap on the right. So far, there's no difference. My derm's...

Thanks very much for the information. I think I may just stick to using heat to bring out my flushes. These really seem to be the worst for me. Will keep...
