How does MD TLC™ treat rosacea?
Rosacea is a chronic inflammatory disease that presents as flushing, broken red blood vessels (telangiectasia), and occasionally bumps. While harmless, this skin condition can have a devastating impact on the quality of your skin and your self-confidence. If you struggle with rosacea, you’re no stranger to the redness, pustules, and irritation that this issue presents. Thankfully, we offer several rosacea treatments to ease your discomfort:
Why choose MD TLC™?
The proper wavelength of a laser is required to remove the telangiectasia and can help control flare-ups. Maintenance treatments are recommended for best results.
Vascular lesions (red spots or telangiectasia) can only safely be removed with the proper wavelength of laser. At MD TLC™, we have both superficial and deep wavelengths available to treat each abnormality with the safest and most effective device. This device can also be used to improve red scars or stretch marks.
What causes rosacea?
The main cause of rosacea seems to be a protein called cathelicidin peptide. When the body produces too much of this specific protein, the skin becomes inflamed and begins to have enlarged vessels and irritation. This protein production may be triggered by genetic, environmental, or a combination of both factors. Other factors can play a contributing role in the development of this issue, making it hard to treat.
