Rosacea is a condition both men and women have.
Most common on the face, it causes redness on the nose, cheeks, chin, and forehead. In extreme cases, tiny blood vessels may become visible, causing severe hyperpigmentation. Our rosacea treatments in St. Louis can make all the difference in the world.
The exact cause is still unclear, but rosacea more than likely stems from a neurovascular or immune disorder. Most humans play host to microscopic mites under the genus Demodex, but certain imbalances in the immune mechanism can cause reactions to these mites, which leads to rosacea or other skin diseases.
Although rosacea can affect anyone, it’s more common in people with fair skin, and treating the condition can be both frustrating and disappointing.

Recommended Rosacea Treatments in St. Louis
The Aerolase Neo is very effective at target both the red pigmentation associated with rosacea as well as the dilated vessels that are visible through the skin.
Intense pulsed light (IPL) treats hyperpigmentation by targeting melanin (pigment-producing cells) in the skin. In addition, it targets the hemoglobin in visible vessels. When these cells absorb light, the energy transforms into heat and destroys hyperactive melanin, giving you a more evenly toned complexion.
A Plasma Pen treatment reduces rosacea by stimulating fibroblast therapy, which induces collagen production. Plasma energy, generated by combining electrostatic energy and nitrogen from the air, rejuvenates the skin and leaves you with a clear, youthful complexion.
