What is Rosacea?

Rosacea is a skin condition that mainly affects the face. It may be caused by genetics, environmental factors, or several other factors and shows up as redness, visible blood vessels, and sometimes acne-like bumps. It often starts with the tendency to blush or flush more easily than others; the redness can become more persistent over time. Rosacea commonly affects the cheeks, nose, forehead, and chin, but it can also irritate the eyes, a condition called ocular rosacea.

Treatment Options for Rosacea

Rosacea is managed through treatments and lifestyle changes to reduce symptoms and flare-ups. Common options include:

  • Topical Medications: Anti-inflammatory creams (metronidazole, ivermectin, azelaic acid) and cleansers containing sulfur.
  • Oral Medications: Low-dose antibiotics like doxycycline or, in severe cases, isotretinoin.
  • Laser and Light Therapy: IPL or pulsed dye lasers target redness and visible blood vessels.
  • Skincare: Use gentle cleansers, fragrance-free moisturizers, and broad-spectrum sunscreen.
  • Lifestyle Changes: Avoid triggers (spicy foods, caffeine, alcohol, stress) and practice stress management.
  • Ocular Rosacea: Treat with eyelid hygiene, artificial tears, or oral antibiotics.

What is the Recovery Like After a Rosacea Treatment

Recovery after rosacea treatment depends on the method used. Here’s what to expect for common treatments:

  • Topical Medications: Minimal to no downtime. Some initial redness or dryness may occur as your skin adjusts.
  • Oral Medications: Little recovery is needed; side effects like stomach upset are rare but possible.
  • Laser or Light Therapy: Mild redness, swelling, or sensitivity for a few days to a week. Avoid sun exposure and follow post-treatment care.
  • Skincare Adjustments: No recovery, but patience is needed as results improve.

The LM MEDICAL NYC Difference

Sisters and partners in practice, Dr. Lesley Rabach, a double board-certified facial plastic surgeon, and Dr. Morgan Rabach, a board-certified dermatologist, founded LM Medical to blend top-tier expertise with a welcoming touch. Their holistic approach combines advanced facial plastic surgery with dermatology, offering everything from personalized skincare to sophisticated surgical techniques tailored to each patient in their modern, inviting offices.

Before starting LM Medical, the sisters perfected their skills at some well-known Manhattan practices. They envisioned a clinic that prioritizes natural, approachable results for every patient through surgery or non-invasive treatments. Their passion turned a neglected space near Washington Park into today’s stunning 5th Avenue office—a labor of love that embodies their commitment to helping patients feel like the best version of themselves.
