At Sand Dermatology, located in Chino Hills and Orange, CA, Dr. Aman Sandhu, Dr. Diem Pham, and Dr. Jamal Saleh are committed to helping patients manage rosacea and achieve healthier, more comfortable skin. Rosacea is a chronic skin condition that causes redness, visible blood vessels, and small bumps often mistaken for acne. While rosacea isn’t curable, it is manageable with the right combination of treatments tailored to your needs.

Topical Treatments to Calm Flare-Ups

For many patients, rosacea treatment begins with prescription topical therapy. These treatments are typically recommended for mild to moderate rosacea and are applied directly to affected areas.

In addition to prescription topicals, gentle skincare products formulated for sensitive skin can help calm irritation and minimize flare-ups. Daily sunscreen is essential, as sun exposure is one of the most common triggers for rosacea symptoms.

Oral Medications for Recurring Symptoms

When topical treatments aren’t enough, oral medications may be prescribed. Low doses of antibiotics like doxycycline can help reduce inflammation and manage more persistent or severe symptoms. Oral medications are often used in combination with topicals for patients who experience frequent flare-ups and require additional support.

How Laser Therapy Reduces Redness and Blood Vessels

Laser therapy may be effective for patients with visible blood vessels, persistent redness, or thickened skin. At Sand Dermatology, we offer advanced laser treatments such as intense pulsed light (IPL) and pulsed dye laser to target and reduce redness, diminish blood vessels, and improve skin texture.

Laser therapy is generally well-tolerated, requires little to no downtime, and delivers noticeable results, making it a popular choice for patients who haven’t achieved relief through other methods.

Lifestyle Adjustments to Prevent Flare-Ups

Along with medical treatment, lifestyle changes are key in managing rosacea. Identifying and avoiding personal triggers, such as spicy foods, alcohol, temperature extremes, or stress, can significantly reduce flare-up frequency and severity. Our team collaborates with patients to develop a personalized care plan addressing medical and lifestyle factors.
