Diagnosis:

We are led to believe that skin is fragile and sensitive. But the skin is a strong organ designed to protect us! It has an amazing ability to regenerate itself. Skin is not sensitive; it is merely reactive when the internal processes are out of balance. Trans epidermal water loss (TEWL) is one of the main causes of skin becoming reactive. Water is essential for healthy skin. Skin with good free water levels is soft and supple, reflects a healthy glow and ages slower. General flushing or redness on the skin, capillaries and red veins often occur when the skin's barrier has been compromised. Some inflammation may be present.

Rosacea is a systemic condition that is triggered by various factors such as incorrect skincare, stress, alcohol consumption, UV and dietary factors. It is important to understand what triggers your unique case in order to effectively manage rosacea.

Solution:

Most treatments for sensitive skin attempt to calm the skin and reduce the redness. Lira rebalances the skin using barrier repair therapy to increase free water levels, as well as calming and soothing the skin. When the skin is brought back into homeostasis it ceases to be reactive. We can treat red veins and capillaries using IPL, which coagulates the stagnated blood in the veins, allowing the body to flush out old blood and bring new oxygenated blood to the skin. IPL and Ultra-Fusion help strength, reducing its reactiveness. Oxygenating Enzyme facials and LED can also help strengthen the skin.

When treating rosacea, depending on the severity, we can use a combination or treatments like Ultra-Fusion, Healing Smart Peels, IPL and LED to maintain skin health and reduce flare ups alongside lifestyle changes.
