How is rosacea acne typically treated?

I am a young hispanic male, I don’t fit the description of people who are prone to acne rosacea. I am going to a dermatologist soon, what is the typical treatment? Should I expect blood to be drawn?

No. your blood does not have to be drawn.

Treatment is with Metronidazole Topical Gel (80% effective) or Permethrin 5% cream. You may also have to take an antibiotic (doxycycline, tetracycline or erythomycin) for 1 month. You dermatologist will decide on the best medication based on the stage of your rosacea.

You should:
Avoid Alcohol
Avoid prolonged heat exposure
Avoid hot liquids (coffee, tea)
Avoid heavy cosmetics
Avoid provocative medications such as Benzoyl Peroxide or Topical Corticosteroids

and Use sun screen regularly.

Buy yourself the soap and the cream of Vichy Normaderm.

They are very good sell them in samborns.

The cream costs less than $200 and the soap costs $60.

I believe me I use them and they are very good, and the better thing is that they are for teenagers, for whom there are other creams that are for persons mas adult and even they produce prejudices to the young skins for which they are very irritating.

This cream takes the sheen from you, it you dries the pimples and prepares that they work out different new thanks to a new technology that alone there have the Laboratories Vichy and Lancome.

The two are very good only that the creams are mas cheap in Vichy.

The equivalent of the cream that I recommend to you but of the laboratories Lancome it is called A Mash Focus and costs approximately $500. It finalizes you see that cost buys me $480.

If you investigate the ccompañíasque they do them, it is the same for that both Laboratories belong to Lo-real and in my oopiniónlas two creams have the same substance, alone that the cream Lancome comes mas concentrated in the active substance and therefore it works mas rapidly beside having a better presentation. It is to say that it is mas elegant and luxurious.
