Rosacea Treatment in Brooklyn, NY

What Is Rosacea?

Rosacea is a chronic skin condition that primarily affects the central face and is characterized by persistent redness, flushing, and visible blood vessels. It most commonly appears on the cheeks, nose, chin, and forehead and may worsen over time without treatment. Rosacea on the face often fluctuates, with periods of flare-ups followed by temporary improvement.

Rosacea affects individuals of all skin types but is more common in fair-skinned individuals and typically begins after the age of 30. While rosacea is not harmful, many people seek professional treatment for rosacea to reduce redness, improve skin tone, and regain confidence in their appearance, especially when symptoms become persistent, visible, or difficult to manage with skincare alone.

Understanding Rosacea

Common Areas Affected

Rosacea most frequently affects areas of the face with increased vascular sensitivity, including:

Cheeks and cheekbones: Persistent redness and flushing are often most noticeable in this central facial area.
Nose and nasal folds: Redness and visible blood vessels may become more prominent over time.
Chin: Flare-ups can cause patchy redness and sensitivity in this region.
Forehead: Diffuse redness or flushing may appear, especially during temperature or stress-related triggers.
Around the eyes: In cases of rosacea of the eye, irritation, redness, or sensitivity may occur.

In some individuals, symptoms may extend to the neck or upper chest during flare-ups. Facial redness is often accompanied by warmth, flushing, or visible capillaries.

Why Rosacea Occurs

The underlying cause of rosacea has not been definitively identified, but it is thought to result from a combination of abnormal blood vessel responses, inflammatory processes, and increased skin reactivity. In affected areas, blood vessels expand more readily and remain dilated, contributing to ongoing redness and flushing.

Genetics, immune response, and environmental exposure may all contribute to rosacea development. Once rosacea begins, repeated inflammation can cause redness and visible veins to become more pronounced over time.

Contributing Factors

Several triggers may worsen rosacea symptoms, including:

Sun exposure and UV damage
Hot or cold temperatures
Wind or environmental irritation
Spicy foods or hot beverages
Alcohol consumption
Exercise or overheating
Emotional stress
Certain skincare products or topical irritants

Because rosacea triggers vary from person to person, identifying and managing individual triggers is an important part of long-term control.

How Is Rosacea Treated?

Treatment for rosacea focuses on reducing redness, calming inflammation, and minimizing visible blood vessels while preserving skin health. While topical medications may be used for symptom management, laser treatment for rosacea offers a non-surgical option that targets redness and dilated vessels more directly.

At Skin Envy Cosmetic and Laser Center, rosacea treatment plans are customized based on severity, skin sensitivity, and the presence of visible capillaries. Laser treatments are often used to reduce redness, improve skin clarity, and support longer-lasting symptom control.
