Understanding Rosacea

Understanding Rosacea

Causes, Symptoms, and Comprehensive Rosacea Treatments at VIP MEDSPA

Rosacea is a common yet often misunderstood skin condition, affecting an estimated 16 million people in the United States alone, with a significant portion of those cases undiagnosed. In Canada, approximately 5-10% of the population is affected, making it one of the most prevalent skin concerns treated in medical aesthetics clinics.

At VIP MEDSPA, we understand the impact rosacea can have on an individual’s confidence and skin health. Led by Dr. Seegobin, a highly experienced medical director, our clinic provides a comprehensive, personalized approach to managing rosacea using a variety of treatment modalities.


What is Rosacea?

Rosacea is a chronic inflammatory skin condition that primarily affects the face, characterized by persistent redness, visible blood vessels (telangiectasia), and in some cases, acne-like bumps. The condition can also cause burning sensations, dryness, and, in severe cases, thickening of the skin, particularly around the nose.

The exact cause of rosacea is not fully understood, but it is believed to be a combination of genetic and environmental factors, such as:

  • Genetics: A family history of rosacea increases the likelihood of developing the condition.
  • Hormones: Hormonal fluctuations, particularly during puberty, menopause, or pregnancy, may exacerbate symptoms.
  • Triggers: Environmental factors such as sunlight, extreme temperatures, spicy foods, alcohol, and stress are known to trigger flare-ups.

Dr. Seegobin’s Approach to Rosacea Treatment at VIP MEDSPA

At VIP MEDSPA, we tailor our Rosacea Treatments to each patient’s unique needs, ensuring the best possible results. Dr. Seegobin and his team begin with a detailed consultation to understand the underlying causes and contributing factors of each individual’s Rosacea. This comprehensive assessment includes a review of genetics, hormones, and lifestyle factors.

We prioritize a multi-faceted treatment protocol, which may include:

1.  Prescription Medications:

For some patients, topical or oral medications are necessary to control the inflammatory process and reduce redness and acne-like lesions. Commonly prescribed options include Metro (metronidazole), a topical antibiotic with anti-inflammatory properties, and Rosavir, a specialized rosacea treatment gel that helps to reduce visible redness and inflammation. Both medications help manage flare-ups and reduce irritation associated with rosacea.

2. Skincare Solutions:

Skin care plays a crucial role in managing rosacea. We recommend high-quality, medical-grade products like Alumier MD and Vivier Skincare to enhance skin health. These lines are specifically formulated for sensitive skin, providing gentle yet effective cleansing, hydration, and anti-inflammatory benefits.

3. Energy-Based Devices:

VIP MEDSPA utilizes advanced energy-based technologies like Intense Pulsed Light (IPL) and Laser Therapy to treat rosacea. These devices target and reduce visible blood vessels, effectively decreasing the redness and flushing associated with the condition.

4. Signature Microneedling with Botox Cocktail:

Our signature treatment, combining microneedling with a Botox cocktail, is a highly effective approach for treating rosacea. The microneedling process promotes collagen production and skin regeneration, while the Botox helps to relax the blood vessels, reducing the appearance of redness and flushing. This combination not only addresses the surface symptoms but also helps to improve the overall texture and health of the skin
