Rosacea Treatment

Koncept® Medical Clinic - Kingston

Rosacea Treatment & Redness Management at KONCEPT® Medical Clinic Kingston

Rosacea is a chronic and inflammatory skin condition that manifests as persistent facial redness, flushing, bumps, and visible blood vessels. If you struggle with the discomfort and self-consciousness that comes with Rosacea, KONCEPT® Medical Clinic Kingston offers specialized, medical-grade solutions to control symptoms, reduce flare-ups, and restore skin calmness.

We provide a comprehensive, multi-step plan tailored to your specific type and severity of Rosacea, combining medical management with advanced aesthetic technology.

Understanding Rosacea: It's More Than Just Redness

Rosacea is often mistaken for acne or simple facial flushing, but it is a distinct chronic disorder. At KONCEPT®, our specialists diagnose and treat the four main sub-types of Rosacea:

At KONCEPT® Medical Clinic, we offer a range of professional-grade peels, from superficial (lunchtime) to medium-depth, to precisely target your unique skin concerns.

Erythematotelangiectatic Rosacea (ETR):

Characterised by persistent redness and visible blood vessels (telangiectasias) and frequent flushing.

Papulopustular Rosacea:

Characterised by persistent redness, along with acne-like bumps (papules) and pimples (pustules).

Phymatous Rosacea:

A rare, severe form that causes skin thickening, typically on the nose (Rhinophyma).

Ocular Rosacea:

Affects the eyes, causing dryness, irritation, redness, and swollen eyelids.

Our Comprehensive Rosacea Treatment Pillars

There is no permanent cure for Rosacea, but with expert management, you can achieve long-term remission and significant symptom reduction. Our strategy integrates three key areas:

1. Medical Diagnosis & Prescription Management

Your treatment begins with a detailed medical consultation to understand your condition and identify specific contributing factors (e.g., genetics, Demodex mites, gut health).

Topical Therapies:

Prescription creams and gels targeting inflammation, Demodex mites, and visible blood vessels are the foundation of treatment.

Anti-Inflammatory Agents:

(e.g., Metronidazole, Azelaic Acid, Ivermectin) to reduce papules, pustules, and underlying inflammation.

Redness Reducers:

(e.g., Brimonidine or Oxymetazoline) to temporarily narrow blood vessels and reduce persistent redness and flushing (Erythema).

Oral Medications:

For more inflammatory or severe cases, we may prescribe low-dose oral antibiotics (like Doxycycline) known for their anti-inflammatory properties, or other systemic medications.

Trigger & Lifestyle Management

Effective Rosacea control relies heavily on reducing lifestyle triggers. We equip you with the knowledge and tools to minimise flare-ups:

Trigger Identification:

We guide you in keeping a diary to identify personal triggers (e.g., sun, heat, stress, alcohol, spicy foods, specific skincare ingredients).

Skin Barrier Care:

Advice on gentle, non-irritating, and non-comedogenic cleansers and moisturisers to protect the compromised skin barrier.

Sun Protection:

Emphasising daily use of high-SPF mineral-based sunscreens (Zinc Oxide/Titanium Dioxide) to prevent the number one Rosacea trigger: UV exposure.

Advanced In-Clinic Procedures (Targeting Redness & Vessels)

While medication manages the bumps and inflammation, technology is the most effective way to eliminate permanent redness and visible capillaries.

2. Treatment Pillars for Eczema & Psoriasis

We offer a spectrum of effective, evidence-based treatments, from topical applications to advanced therapy:

Vascular Laser Therapy

ETR (Redness, Telangiectasia)

Highly focused laser light targets and safely destroys the tiny, visible blood vessels and persistent diffuse redness without damaging surrounding skin.

Intense Pulsed Light (IPL)

ETR, Papulopustular

Uses broad-spectrum light to close down broken capillaries, treat background redness, and can help with overall skin tone and texture.

Medical-Grade Peels

Papulopustular

Specific, gentle formulations help calm inflammation, gently exfoliate to manage papules, and improve skin barrier function.

Surgical/Laser Correction

Phymatous Rosacea

For advanced skin thickening (Rhinophyma), surgical procedures or CO2 laser resurfacing can be used to re-contour and reshape the affected area.
