@Kellie - We've got a pretty good one. Email Patti and she'll give it to you.   I didn't include it on the DVD since it's not really considered acne.

I am looking for a successful protocol and products for treating Rosacea. What is everyone doing that works?

Yes Sandy...I use the cream daily and the professional serum in the treatment room. It is great stuff.  The Rosacea group just led me into starting an anti-glycation group.  Consuming a diet low in inflammation can help reduce redness of the skin and improve health overall. I have been wanting to get going on the diet and decided why not start now. Please join me.  I need help!

Sharon...have you used Circadia's rosacea creme...I think they have both a creme and professional serum?

When treating rosacea and my skin which is super sensitive and reactive, I never use anything that will cause inflammation.  I have found that using calming, vaso-constricting and gentle anti-bacterial products work best. 

The causes of Rosacea have not been definitively proven, there are just theories out there and studies that show relationships between factors...so I treat the symptoms: inflammation and bacteria.  I would advise the client to avoid food causing inflammation as Laura said and would advise the client to consider and anti-glycation diet.

I have many clients who have Rosacea, and look forward to connecting with others who treat this condition!

Dr Ben Johnson is the doctor who created Osmosis Skin Care line.  I have been amazed at the results using Stem Factor and Catalyst, primarily on my sun damage.   I saw his video on rosacea the other day and was interested in his approach.  The vitamin A he uses is Retinaldehyde, a much gentler form while at the same time it is more readily utilized by the skin.  Thought you might like to see it.  It is at the bottom of the page under skin condition videos: http://www.osmosisskincare.com/VideoLibrary.aspx

That is so interesting!
Laura Cooksey Comment by Laura Cooksey on May 6, 2011 at 5:12pm
@Gina - those are chemical sunscreens like avobenzone.  The reason you don't want to use those is because they absorb heat which is what you don't want with rosacea; unlike zinc and titanium dioxide that deflect/block the heat.
