Rosacea & redness.

What it is

Rosacea is a chronic inflammatory condition with a vascular and a barrier component. It usually begins as flushing across the central face and, over time, settles into persistent redness with visible vessels, sometimes with small bumps. Most patients have spent years avoiding triggers and trying products, and arrive tired of skin that betrays them by the end of the day.

Our approach is medical and considered. It begins with a consultation, and where the rosacea is active or flaring, with a prescription-led priming routine to calm the skin first. The laser only follows once the skin is settled. The Fotona Nd:YAG vascular laser then treats the dilated vessels and settles the redness at its source, while calming bio-revitalisation rebuilds barrier resilience so the skin reacts less. Dr Beiki primes the skin before any laser work and manages it afterwards, with the right prescription routine and daily SPF, so the result holds and flares grow less frequent.

What we look for

• ●A chronic inflammatory tendency in the skin, often inherited
• ●Dilated and visible vessels across the cheeks and nose, known as telangiectasia
• ●A compromised barrier that lets triggers reach the skin too easily
• ●Vascular reactivity to heat, alcohol, stress, sun and certain foods
• ●Flushing that has, over time, settled into a more permanent redness
• ●Years of trial and error with products that flared the skin rather than calmed it

Dr Beiki assesses which of these are at play before recommending a layered approach.
