Rosacea treatments are available that can control, minimize and even erase
the visible signs, symptoms and flushing triggers of rosacea. Our
staff of Rosacea Specialists, Flushing Experts and Surgeons understand
the effect that Rosacea has on quality of life. The Institute’s
main objective is to actively treat the underlying heart of this neuro-vascular
disorder so that rosacea sufferers don’t have to worry about
rosacea symptoms and avoidance of triggers. This can now be achieved
through the expert use of our Rosacea MultiPass™ technique
and a combination of the latest vascular laser devices (Sciton
BBL™ – the
next generation Intense Pulse Light System that treats blood vessels & sebaceous
glands, 1064 Super Yag, and Erbrium Arctic Peel). These devices in
combination with pre-flushing protocols, utilization of angiogenesis
inhibitors, and the latest topical and oral rosacea medications can
give rosacea sufferers complete clearance of their rosacea symptoms,
significantly reduce bouts of facial flushing & burning, and remove
or greatly reduce rosacea triggers.
What we treat?
• Facial Flushing
• Persistent Facial Redness
• Broken Blood Vessels
• Bumps, Papules & Pustules
• Burning & Stinging
Sensations
• Advanced Ocular Rosacea Treatment
• Rosacea Trigger Reduction
What makes our Rosacea Treatment Unique?
We treat each patient as a unique case. Each symptom, trigger
and form of facial flushing is treated at their root cause, In-depth
questionnaires, rigorous physician examination and continual treatment
protocol changes as the treatments progress are keys to our approach. Rosacea
sufferers are usually under-treated, told to “avoid their rosacea
triggers”, and subjected to "cookie cutter" treatment
methods by general physicians who are using out-dated protocols. At
the Rosacea Treatment Institute we do not believe that "one
size fits all" when it comes to treating our patients.
Treatments are tailored based on sub-type and severity:
- Treatment of facial blood vessels, flushing, neural
burning, papules, pustules, acne.
- Utilization of angiogenesis inhibitors during treatment.
- Utilization of the latest topicals and oral medications.
- Thorough evaluation via Rosacea Specialist, Blushing Specialist
and Surgeon.
- One center that understands the complexity of flushing disorders
and utilizes the latest medical equipment to treat the underlying
cause of this life altering inflammatory disorder.
- Rosacea treatment utilizing topical drug delivery systems such
as iontophoresis and sonophoresis to safely deliver novel medications
that act at the cellular level to inhibit rosacea flushing and triggers
(near-future application at the Institution).
Treatment Innovations and Therapies for Rosacea
Over the past 14 months our specialists have determined that it takes
aggressive treatment with the latest technology to treat the underlying
cause(s) of rosacea: (1) Tailored treatment with three next-generation
laser systems, (2) Selective flushing for increased treatment
depth, (3) post-laser anti-inflammatory protocols, (4) angiogenesis
inhibitors, (5) topical prescription constrictors, (4) BOTOX injections
into the flushing zone (for specific cases), and (6) cutting-edge topical & oral
prescriptions.
Rosacea is a disorder of angiogenesis. Rosacea sufferers
have too many blood vessels and these blood vessels continue to replicate
uncontrollably. One of our primary goals is to permanently reduce
the number of blood vessels in the face and then turn off the angiogenesis
enzymes (pictured in the right hand photo).

New Treatment Protocols that include:
- Treatment
with New Computer Scanning LAPG YAG
- Pre-Treatment
Flushing for underlying condition
- Multiple Pass Laser Treatments to treat all 4 Vascular
Layers (Rosacea Multipass™)
- Use of Blue Light (420 nm wavelength)
- Decrease edema (swelling), accelerate recovery of edema and
sensitivity
- Targets certain elements of the inflammatory pathway which
are "super
sensitive" in Rosacea sufferers (IL 1 and IL 2 (interleukin),
inflammatory cell dispersion (improving papules), narrows the
enlarged necks of sebaceous glands
- Decreases hypersensitivity of the skin to various stimuli
- Improves pustular inflammatory acne vulgaris
- Allows Multipass™ laser treatments
to better fully treat various targets
