Rosacea and adult acne or two common skin conditions that are treated with lasers and topical dermatologic regimens. Although there are differences in the management of adult acne versus facial rosacea, there are some similarities that can be improved and eliminated with cosmetic dermatology treatments available at Kare Plastic Surgery.
 
Our office is a comprehensive Plastic Surgery and Cosmetic Dermatology Center that specializes in the laser treatment of common skin conditions including facial blushing, rosacea, adult acne, and facial redness. We also have specific protocols to treat acne scars and facial veins. We service the Santa Monica, Brentwood 90049, and Pacific Palisades.
 
Our three most common procedures for rosacea and adult acne include the following:
 
IPL photofacial: our office is pleased to provide our patients with the Cutera limelight IPL system for non-invasive, no downtime photo facials to help treat common symptoms of rosacea, sun damage, age spots, adult acne, and skin texture. A photo facial has minimal downtime and reduces the onset and visibility of damaged skin including hyperpigmentation and facial redness. Our patients typically see improvements after one treatment, but patients are advised to undergo a series of 3 to 5 consecutive treatments for best results. The Cutera limelight photo facial available in Santa Monica and Brentwood uses broad-spectrum light to penetrate within the multiple layers of skin in order to reduce visible signs of chronic sun damage and inflammation. At Kare Plastic Surgery, we use photo facials to treat fine lines and wrinkles, large pores, rosacea, Hyperpigmentation and melasma, and spider veins on the face.
 
Hydrafacial: the hydrafacial is unique protocol based facial treatment that gently exfoliate the skin, extract debris and skin impurities from clog pores, and stimulates collagen production and healthy skin using a combination of alpha beta hydroxy acid‘s and skin stimulating enzymes. Our hydra facial deluxe treatment takes 30 minutes to 60 minutes to perform and has minimal downtime with a visible reduction in facial skin aging seen immediately and throughout the course of treatment. We can combine the hydra facial vortex extraction and enzyme penetration to amplify the skin alongside a chemical peel or laser treatment.
 
The hydrafacial system is excellent for teenage acne, adult acne, skin inflammation, and rosacea. If you have visible signs of rosacea breakouts including facial veins, facial blushing, redness, and skin inflammation, you may benefit from consecutive hydrafacial Treatments.
