More Signs and Symptoms
When rosacea first develops, it may appear, then disappear, and then reappear. However, the skin may fail to return to its normal color and the enlarged blood vessels and pimples arrive in time.
Rosacea may rarely reverse itself. Rosacea generally lasts for years, and, if untreated, it tends to gradually worsen.

• Persistent flushing lasting hours or days• Telangiectasias• Facial swelling or Edema• Stimuli caused• Stinging or Burning
Stage 2
• Persistent Erythema• Inflammatory Papules and Pustules• Burning and Stinging less common• Chronic Edema• Scarring is common
Stage 3

Facial Rosacea Help
• Sometimes topical or oral antibiotics can be used. Skin bumps may get better quickly, but redness and flushing are less likely to improve.
• Small red lines can be treated with electrosurgery and laser surgery. For some people, laser surgery improves the skin without much scarring or damage.
• Patients with a swollen, bumpy nose can have extra skin tissue taken off to make it smaller.
Ocular Rosacea Help
• Most eye problems are treated with oral antibiotics.
• People who get infections of the eyelids must clean them a lot. After scrubbing with a gentle cleanser, apply a warm (but not hot) compress a few times a day.
• If needed, the doctor may prescribe steroid eye drops

Can Rosacea be Cured

More about Glycolic• Purpose• Glycolic acid (both buffered and non-buffered) is used in over-the-counter skin care products and
light chemical peels to rejuvenate the skin and, with continued use, gradually diminish fine lines, mild wrinkles and skin discoloration for healthier, younger-looking skin.
• pH Level• The pH level indicates the level of acid in a substance. In skin care, the lower the pH of a chemical,
the stronger the acid and its effect on skin. Natural glycolic acid has a pH of 1.0. A pH of .06 indicates the pH has been lowered for more strength. Buffered glycolic acid has a pH level that has been altered.
• Strength• Non-buffered glycolic acid has a low pH level, meaning the acid causes more of a reaction with skin
proteins that trigger the peeling off of surface skin cells and the regeneration of new skin cells to replace the old. Buffered glycolic acid has a pH level that has been modified, typically to weaken the acid.
• Uses• Non-buffered glycolic acid is typical for dermatological cosmetic treatments, while buffered glycolic
acid is often used in over-the-counter products and treatments since it is safer and more gentle on the skin.
• Considerations• Percentage does not necessarily indicate strength. A product with "70% glycolic acid" could contain
weaker, buffered glycolic acid while one with "30% glycolic acid" could contain stronger, non-buffered acid.
