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).

                 (Uncontrolled Vascular Growth)
                  (Reversal of Rosacea Progression)
                                                

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
