Would Laser Treatment Work for Rosacea at 14 Yrs. Old?

Posted By Findafullproofcurerosacea (Phoenix, Arizona, Usa) on 02/21/2012

I have had rosecea for slightly over half a year now and I am 14 and a half. I HATE how people comment on my red face at school and even teachers say "Oh, I've made you blush" when I'm not embarassed or anxious of anything at that time!!! I have been to a dermatologist and have been prescribed some very good products that have dramatically improved the texture and acne of my cheeks. I was just wondering if having lazer treatment for my Rosacea would damage or have side affects on skin as young as mine?

OMG!! We have the same issue I have rosacea and I'm 15 and I've had it since 13 my face is red all the time with blood vessels everywhere. I do everything right and where sunscreen use aloe but nothing works... I was considering laser treatment as well. Finally someone my age who knows how it feels to get the question from your classsmates "whys your face so red" hopefully I can cure this constant redness and red capillaries all over my face! Thanks

I just googled rosacea and there was one article that said it could be possible that it is mites under the skin that when they poop it irritates the skin and antibiotics heal the reaction to their poop but not the mites themselves..... Well, go read the article, maybe it will help you if that is what your condition is.
