Rosacea/acne Rosacea/rosacea acne
Rosacea - also known as acne rosacea or pink acne - is a skin condition that takes many forms. These include redness, itching and acne-like, inflammatory skin changes. The blushing of the facial skin in situations where it is least needed is also part of this clinical picture.
Acne rosacea is a long-term, non-contagious disease of the facial skin that affects around five to ten percent of adults. It mainly affects fair-skinned people over the age of 35. It also occurs more frequently in women than in men.
Rosacea usually begins with the appearance of fleeting, seizure-like redness on the face. Initially, the redness disappears after a certain amount of time, but it can become permanent as the disease progresses. In more than half of patients, inflamed nodules and pimples appear as the disease progresses. You should see a dermatologist at this point at the latest.
More than half of acne rosacea patients complain of stinging and burning eyes as well as a foreign body sensation and sensitivity to the sun.

Treatment procedure
The basis of the anti-acne rosacea concept at JUVENIS is a precise skin analysis. Based on this, an individualized concept is developed together. This treatment plan consists of the selected components listed below:

In the longer term, intensive pulsed light therapy (IPL) or laser therapy (e.g. Nd:Yag laser) helps to combat facial redness and dilated veins. In most cases, 3 to 5 treatments at intervals of around 3 weeks are recommended in order to achieve good, lasting results. These are carried out during the low-light season. The skin must be pre-treated with soothing, pigment-stabilizing creams in order to achieve a safe and effective result.

Treatment is tailored to each individual and may include:
medical skincare
anti-inflammatory creams or medications
