Who Rosacea Affects

Rosacea can affect anyone, but it is most common in adults over 30 with fair skin. Women experience rosacea more frequently, while men may develop more noticeable symptoms due to thicker skin. Genetics, environmental triggers, and lifestyle factors can all contribute to flare-ups. Symptoms of rosacea can easily be confused with acne or other skin concerns, making it essential to receive a skincare evaluation to diagnose and address your condition.

Our Rosacea Treatments

At Thrive Wellness & Aesthetics, we offer advanced, non-invasive treatments designed to calm inflammation, reduce redness, and support long-term skin health. Your provider will build a personalized treatment plan according to your specific symptoms and triggers.

Lumecca IPL

Intense Pulsed Light (IPL) helps reduce redness, visible blood vessels, and pigmentation associated with rosacea. Light energy gently targets abnormal vessels beneath the skin’s surface, helping improve tone and minimize flushing over time. Lumecca IPL is one of the most effective technologies for treating vascular concerns from your condition.

HydraFacial

HydraFacial is a non-irritating, customizable treatment ideal for sensitive or reactive skin. It deeply cleanses, hydrates, and nourishes the skin using serums designed to reduce redness and support a healthy barrier function.

ZO Skincare

Thrive offers curated ZO skincare products specifically formulated for sensitive, redness-prone skin. These products soothe inflammation, reinforce the skin barrier, and help minimize triggers that can worsen symptoms.

Frequently Asked Questions

Can rosacea be cured?

The skin condition cannot be fully cured, but it can be effectively managed with consistent treatment. Many patients see significant improvement in redness, texture, and flare-ups with a customized plan.

What triggers rosacea flare-ups?

Common triggers include heat, sun exposure, spicy foods, stress, alcohol, and certain skincare ingredients. Identifying and avoiding your personal triggers can reduce your symptoms.

Is rosacea the same as acne?
