How do you get rid of rosacea?

In: Conditions and Diseases, Skin Disorders, Alternative Treatments for Conditions or Diseases [Edit categories]

Answer:

While there is no known cure for rosacea, there is an array of safe and effective treatments that are available to reduce its appearance and prevent further progression. It is important to have a quick response time to symptoms because the longer one waits before treatment, the more difficult the rosacea becomes to treat.

Rosacea treatment plans include:

oral medications - tetracycline, minocycline, erythromycin and isotretinoin
topical medications - metronidazole, tretinoin, benzoyl peroxide and azelaic acid
surgical procedures (mostly for advanced cases)
lifestyle modifications - recommended cleansers, moisturizers, or sunscreens
laser and light therapies (electrosugery)
