Rosacea
 Rosacea is a facial rash usually composed of
prominent redness and sometimes pimples as well.
Board Certified Dermatologist, Debra Jaliman, MD has treated hundreds of
patients at her Manhattan, New York City office with rosacea. Rosacea tends to occur in
the central part of the face and around the nose, cheeks, chin and/or
forehead. Long term Rosacea may produce Rhinophyma, an enlarged nose,
typified by W.C. Field’s nose.
The major goals of rosacea
treatment are to:
- Understand your unique condition
- Identify and avoid the factors that cause flushing for you and that flare
your rosacea
- Control the active symptoms and signs of rosacea
- Achieve optimum maintenance of your rosacea and its complications
- Understand that this is a chronic condition
Medical Treatment for Rosacea:
- For mild rosacea, topical therapy is always the first choice
- When rosacea is more severe, topical therapy must often be combined with
oral treatment
- Creams and oral antibiotics are not effective in treating the flushing of
the face, or the broken blood vessels
Feel free to make a consultation with Board Certified Dermatologist, Debra
Jaliman, MD at her Manhattan, New York office for treatment of your rosacea.
