What is rosacea?

Rosacea is a chronic skin condition that causes facial redness, flushing, and sensitivity. It can also lead to bumps that resemble acne, visible blood vessels, or eye irritation. While rosacea can affect anyone, it most often appears in adults with fair or sensitive skin and may worsen with triggers such as heat, stress, sun exposure, spicy foods, or certain skincare products.

Though rosacea isn’t dangerous, flare-ups can be uncomfortable and sometimes unpredictable. The CSC Steil Dermatology team provides expert evaluation and treatment to help you understand your triggers and keep symptoms under control.

Are there different types of rosacea treatment?

Yes. Effective rosacea treatment often involves a combination of therapies tailored to your type of rosacea, symptom severity, and lifestyle. Common treatment options include:

  • Topical medications to reduce redness and inflammation
  • Oral medications to calm bumps, pustules, and deeper inflammation
  • Laser and light treatments to minimize visible blood vessels and persistent redness
  • Medical-grade skincare designed to support the skin barrier and reduce sensitivity
  • Trigger management guidance to prevent flare-ups before they start

Your provider may recommend a customized combination of treatments to deliver both immediate relief and long-term improvement.

What can I expect during rosacea treatment?

Your rosacea visit begins with a careful evaluation of your skin and a conversation about your symptoms, lifestyle habits, and known triggers. This helps your provider identify what’s causing your flare-ups and which treatments will be most effective.

Based on your needs, they create a personalized treatment plan that may include prescription medications, in-office light or laser therapy, or a gentle skincare routine tailored to sensitive skin. If you undergo a laser or light session, treatments are typically quick and well-tolerated, with little to no downtime.

You’ll also receive guidance on recognizing and avoiding your unique triggers—an essential step in keeping rosacea manageable long-term.

How long will my rosacea treatment results last?

Rosacea is a chronic condition, so ongoing care and trigger management are key to maintaining clear, calm skin. Many patients notice improvement within a few weeks, especially when treatments are combined with a consistent skincare routine.

Your provider may adjust your plan throughout the year to help you stay ahead of environmental or lifestyle triggers. With proper care, most people achieve long-lasting reductions in redness, fewer flare-ups, and greater overall skin comfort.
