Rosacea, also known as couperose as a precursor, is a chronic skin disease characterized by
on the face. The cheeks, nose and chin are usually particularly affected. The exact cause is not yet fully understood, but it is believed that a combination of genetic factors, a disrupted skin barrier, and overreactions to environmental factors such as UV radiation, heat, or certain foods play a role. Rosacea/couperose usually affects middle-aged adults and, if left untreated, can lead to permanent skin changes and vascular damage over time.
Treatment of rosacea or rosacea is particularly suitable for people whose symptoms are aesthetically or functionally disturbing. Those affected often complain of persistent redness, inflamed areas of skin, pustules and enlarged veins, which severely impair the appearance of the skin. In addition to the purely visual impairment, however, many also suffer from itching, burning or a feeling of tightness in the skin. As soon as these symptoms affect everyday life, treatment is advisable. Early therapy can help keep the disease under control and prevent permanent skin changes.
In our Zurich clinic, we offer a variety of modern and effective treatment options for the treatment of skin diseases such as rosacea. Each therapy is individually adapted to the skin needs of the patient. Our approach includes not only the external treatment of the skin, but also the consideration of internal factors such as diet and lifestyle, which can have a significant influence on the appearance of the skin.
Our holistic treatment concept includes the following approaches:
Skin analysis:
The first step of any treatment is a precise skin analysis. Using modern equipment and procedures, we analyze your skin structure, examine inflammation and evaluate the condition of your skin. On this basis, we create an individual treatment plan that is specifically tailored to your skin needs.
Drug therapy:
These range from topical preparations, such as creams and gels, which are applied locally to the affected areas of the skin, to systemic medications in tablet form that work from within. Our dermatologists prescribe targeted medications that reduce inflammation, regulate sebum production and improve the appearance of the skin.
Laser therapy:
Modern laser therapies are particularly effective in the treatment of rosacea and acne. With modern laser procedures, we can reduce inflammation, treat redness and visible veins in rosacea (couperose) and smooth acne scars in a targeted manner. Laser therapy is a gentle and effective method to improve the appearance of the skin in the long term.
Scar treatment:
If, for example, scars remain after acne treatment, we offer you specialized procedures for scar treatment. These include, among other things, laser treatment, which smoothes the scar tissue and refines the overall appearance of the skin.
Specialized dermatological nutritional advice:
Skin health and nutrition are closely linked. Our specialized nutritionists will help you find a diet that positively affects your skin and helps reduce skin changes. Together, we will develop a nutrition plan that is tailored to your individual needs and will help you strengthen your skin from the inside out.
The results of rosacea or acne treatment depend on various factors, including the severity of the condition and the treatment method chosen. In the case of drug therapies and laser treatments, the first improvements can usually be seen after just a few weeks. However, several sessions may be required for an optimal result, especially in the case of laser therapy and scar treatment.
Continuous monitoring and adjustment of the treatment plan ensures that the treatment is adapted to the development of your skin. The improvement in the appearance of the skin is often permanent, but in the case of chronic conditions such as rosacea, it may require regular check-ups to avoid relapses. Through the individual combination of drug, technological and nutritional approaches, you can expect a significantly improved and clearer complexion.
Every skin is unique. That’s why we take the time for a comprehensive analysis and create a tailor-made treatment plan. We combine state-of-the-art medical treatments with aesthetic procedures and nutritional advice to provide you with the best possible care. Our team of experienced dermatologists, nutritionists and laser specialists always ensures that you receive the best possible care.
