Rosacea
Rosacea treatment at The Clinic Holland Park, West London.
Rosacea is a chronic skin condition that is more common in fair skin tones and in women. It often starts with a tendency to flush or blush, which can cause embarrassment and impact negatively on an individual’s self-esteem.
Symptoms of rosacea can be exacerbated by conditions such as UV exposure, changes in temperature, exercise, certain foods, alcohol intake, and stress.

There are four classifications of rosacea:
- Erythematotelangiectatic – redness, flushing, and visible blood vessels.
- Papulopustular – redness, swelling and acne-like spots.
- Phymatous – causing thickened, bumpy skin.
- Ocular rosacea – red and irritated eyes and eyelids.
While there is no cure for rosacea, we have many treatments that can help manage your symptoms effectively, which include: topical treatments, oral medications, laser therapies, skincare, lifestyle modifications, and avoiding triggers (spicy foods, hot drinks, extreme temperatures), and proper sun protection. Rosacea treatment requires a personalised approach tailored to each individual’s unique triggers, symptoms and skin type.
