HOW TO TREAT ROSACEA NATURALLY?

• Practice good sun protection
• Use SPF 15+ Daily
• Reduce stress level
• Good skin nutrition

SKIN HEALTH

The lymphatic system as well as the vascular system and the immune responses, the Langerhans cell, keratinocyte must all work in synergy. Whenever one of these is compromised the skins barrier defense systems are breaking down and consequently vascular disorders or reactive rosacea forms.

The wet oily look that the skin often has is not due to oil, but fast trans-epidermal water loss, when the acid mantle and ceramides are non-existent the skin looses its vital water, this again exacerbates the inflammation which is a major player in rosacea.

By understanding the need for balance and harmony underneath the skin and how important it is to have a good immune system we can conclude that essential fatty acid deficiency or an impaired acid mantle would be two major contributors to Rosacea.

TREATMENTS & PRODUCTS

Rosacea cannot be cured, but it can be controlled. An effective treatment and home maintenance products will dramatically reduce the symptoms and signs of rosacea.  Traditional style face facials that focus on just calming the skin attempting to reduce the redness do not give a long term resolution, effective treatment needs to get to the core of the problem and addresses all the contributing factors that cause Rosacea. For a treatment to effectively improve Rosacea it must be able to deal with the skin as a whole system.  A home regime of good skin nutrition, amino acids, skin identical lipids to repair the bi-layers, repairs barrier function.

WHAT IS ROSACEA?

Rosacea is not a complexion problem that will go away by itself, if it is not treated, it will become worse. It can cause devastating psychological and social problems in addition to its physical effects.

Rosacea is a vascular disorder that exhibits visible changes and reactions on and within the skin such as:

• Flushing redness on cheeks, nose, forehead and chin
• Erythema (swelling) & inflammation
• Tightness
• Small blisters, red bumps and pimples
• Heat weals
• Watery, itchy eyes
• Bulbous nose, noticeable pores, baggy cheeks, fibroplasia and distorted facial features
• Sensations include; stinging, burning and hot itchy rashes

CONTRIBUTING FACTORS

Researchers believe that hereditary as well as environmental factors are to blame; even more recent research has shown evidence that Helicobacter Pylori bacterium the same bacteria that gets in the gut and causes reflux and stomach ulcers has been detected in Rosacea. Stress is also a contributing factor in that elevated levels of cortisol over a prolonged period of time suppress the immune system and inflammatory conditions occur.

TRIGGERS

Rosacea can be flared up by a variety of triggers ranging from sun exposure, stress, alcohol, spicy foods and hot beverages such as coffee. Medications and cosmetics with irritating ingredients and fragrances can also lead to an outbreak of Rosacea.
