Rosacea procedure considerations at Ascension

morpheus8-iconimg1

Addressing Rosacea Presentations

Procedures may help reduce visible signs of rosacea including erythema and telangiectasia. Rosacea is a chronic condition that requires ongoing management; procedures may temporarily improve appearance but do not cure the underlying condition.

Individual Assessment

Our team will assess your rosacea presentation, subtype, severity, and treatment history to discuss which procedure options, if any, may be appropriate. Not all rosacea presentations respond to procedural interventions.

Individualised Approach

Following assessment, if you are deemed suitable, an individualised procedure plan will be developed based on your specific rosacea subtype, severity, skin type, and realistic expectations. Multiple sessions are typically required.

Healite II  /

Healite II is a medical device that delivers low-level light therapy (LLLT) using red and blue light wavelengths. The therapy may influence inflammatory processes and cellular activity. For rosacea, light therapy may affect visible redness, though individual responses vary significantly. The proposed mechanism involves effects on cellular mitochondria and inflammatory mediators.

Multiple sessions are typically required. The number of sessions depends on individual response, rosacea severity, and subtype.

CoolView Laser  /

CoolView Laser uses dual wavelengths of 532nm and 1064nm laser energy to target visible blood vessels (telangiectasia) and erythema associated with rosacea. The device delivers controlled light energy that is absorbed by haemoglobin in blood vessels. This absorption may cause thermal coagulation of targeted vessels, aiming to reduce their visibility.

The procedure may also be used to address pigmentation, visible capillaries, and uneven skin tone. Individual responses vary significantly.

The number of sessions required may vary depending on the severity of the condition and the individual's response to treatment.

Laser Genesis  /

Laser Genesis uses Nd:YAG laser technology to deliver thermal energy to dermal tissues. The procedure aims to affect collagen remodelling and reduce visible blood vessels contributing to rosacea-associated erythema. During the procedure, patients experience warmth on the skin surface.

Following the procedure, sun protection is essential. Most patients can resume normal activities shortly after treatment, though some redness or sensitivity may occur.

Multiple sessions are typically recommended. The number of sessions required varies based on individual response, rosacea severity, and baseline skin characteristics. A series of 4-6 sessions is common, though individual requirements vary.
