Should I risk trying a rosacea laser treatment?

I am currently 16 years old, and have had rosacea since i was 13.


I'm 34 and have had rosacea for 3 years. Any treatment you use or procedure you have done is only a temporary fix.


Is laser treatment for Rosacea or spider veins On the face effective?

I am considering having this procedure done and am interested in peoples own results and level of satisfaction.


Hi there,

I have had laser therapy for spider veins and it was 100% effective.


Does Rosacea laser treatment qualify for FSA?



It should qualify for flex spending. After all, it is your money to use as you see fit right?

Good luck!

Product Description

The outside layer of your skin is covered in oil, and being oil soluble, the Salicylic acid is able to penetrate this outer layer.

Salicylic/20 peel breaks down the protein bonds between the layers of skin, which is why a much quicker peel can be achieved.

For acne, the Salicylic acid has several properties that make it a very effective treatment for acne.

Salicylic/20 peel acts as an anti-inflammatory and helps to immediately reduce acne spots

Salicylic/20 peel is effective at reducing the appearance of fine lines and wrinkles, and improving overall facial texture because it exfoliates both the skin surface and within pores.

Great For Acne Salicylic acid is highly effective for acne and oily skins.

Salicylic acid blends powerful skin exfoliation with skin soothing actions. It has ultraviolet absorbing properties that help to protect the skin from the damaging effects of the sun.

VERY pleased
I started having problems with adult onset acne at about age 25 - am now 40. Have tried everything - oral antibiotics, topical antibiotics, retin-a, etc. etc. Despite trying numerous dermatologists, I never got what I considered good results - just a three minute visit and a couple of scripts. Decided to try this - at the price, nothing to lose. Man am I pleased. For the first time, acne is resolved (I have used the peel once a week for about six weeks). My scarring is improved and my skin tone is becoming much more even. Even improving my melasma. I would highly recommend this product. Word of caution. Acne will worsen after the first treatment - wait it out - it will improve Dramatically.
Great Product on Ebony Skin
I started getting acne young, when i was about 10 and i didnt know how to look after my skin then. No cleansing, toning or even moisturizing because i thought that would give me more spots, what a fool i was. The problem with black skin is that it hyperpigments easy and by the time i was 21 i couldnt bare to look at myself in the mirror, i had so many acne scars i couldnt stand it. Dermatologists were no help, the pills and creams are useless if you dont have a good skin care regimen which is something the doctors dont usually tell you. In 2001 called around and was told by everyone on Harley Street that dermabrasion and skin peels were not for black skin tones so i paid £1800 for lazer treatment. It worked to some extent, the spots went and my skin looked clearer but if i had known about this product i wouldnt have bothered. The truth is that these skin acids can and are used safely on ebony skin tones and have been for years. I am a caramel complexion...
Definatly works!!
At first i was skeptical of this acid peel, but changed my mind soon after. I took before photos to see the change the peel would have on my face, and its only been about 4 weeks, but i will take pics soon of the after results after 6 weeks. Im 20, male, white, with slightly oily skin, and acne that sometimes turns horrible on me and makes cysts only on cheeks though. One cyst next to my eye and eyebrow left a bad scar. This stuff does tingle a bit, but very bearable. Used first for 2 mins, and had no effect, upped it to 4, same result. Used the full 8 mins the next day, started to see improvements. I modified the instructions a bit because my skin is used to exfoliations by 10% benzoil peroxide which only made pimples smaller and face a bit dry. I used every other day for the full 8 mins every time. But i suggest follow their instructions first before adjusting it. No down time here, and no redness like some people mentioned, and i dont...

Product Description

Glycolic Acid is a superficial peeling agent that is made from sugar cane. It is often considered the most active and beneficial of the Alpha-Hydroxy-Acids (AHA).

Glycolic/35 works beneath the skin to stimulate collagen and reduce the appearance of fine lines and wrinkles.

Working below the surface there is generally very little visible peeling with the Glycolic/35.

With repetitive and continuous use, improvement to skin tone and texture occurs.

Once inside the skin's cell, glycolic acid will serve as a catalyst for the formation of new collagen which will reduce the appearance of wrinkles on the skin's surface.

Glycolic acid has been proven to be very effective in the treatment of hyperpigmentation, melasma, actinic keratosis, acne, and oily skin, as well as other cosmetic uses.

This product is my Holy Grail
My skin and I haven't been on speaking terms for years. Horrible, brutal, stubborn, disfiguring cystic acne, so viciously tenacious that I had to go through...yes, count 'em...not one, but TWO rounds of Accutane to rid my self of it, and I STILL get a nice cyst on my back or chest every once in a while. I had pockmarks on top of pockmarks...forehead, cheeks, temples, chin, bridge of my nose even. I hate my skin, I really do. I've gone through 2 deep dermabrasions (through a plastic surgeon, not the micro kind), plus about 30 DEEP chemical peels. My scarring improved a lot. But professional options get expensive, and taking weeks at a time off while my skin healed wasn't feasible. So I tried other methods to get rid of the rest of the scarring. Over-the-counter products like Mederma didn't help. Then as I aged, I got grayish, blotchy, dull, oily-here-wrinkly-there skin to add to my scars. Lovely. I've used salicylic acid, makes...
WOW... WOW.. WOW
I always tend to stay away from chemical peels because of the horror stories I hear and because I have fair, oily, acne prone skin. I purchased the 35% peel just to try it; to see if I'm missing anything. I'm sorry I didn't have the guts to try it sooner. :o) It is absolutely fantastic. I had a couple of breakouts I could not, for the life of me, get rid of. I put this on with a cotton ball, and I did wait the full 4 minutes; it tingled, but did not burn in any way. I washed it off and thought "okay, no miracles here". My face did feel smoother but that's about it. The next two days I noticed quite the improvement. My chin cleared up and my face was, again, smoother, and more even and most importantly, no breakouts. I did not need to even put on powder (which I did not live without). You do have to use a moisturizer after the peel. I did the first time, but because my face is oily, I didn't use one the second time. BIG mistake! My...
Glycolic Acid 35%
Have been using Natura Bisse Glycopeel for years and decided to give this a try. Definitely not as gentle as the Natura Bisse product, but equally effective if you don't mind a little faster peel and the accompanying redness (which goes away in a day or so). And, what a value compared to Department store product prices!! Will purchase again.

Science of Light Therapy
The ANSR: BEAM uses safe, energy-efficient LEDs (light-emitting diodes) to provide the benefits of both blue and red clinical photo-light therapy. In photo-light therapy, harmless phototonic energy is absorbed by the skin, where it is converted into chemical energy, initiating beneficial changes on the cellular level. Because the ANSR: BEAM uses photo-light technology to treat acne at the source, it can effectively control breakouts and reduce blemishes.

Eliminate Bacteria and Stimulate the Growth of Healthy Skin
BLUE photo-light therapy uses a 430 nm beam to penetrate the top layers of your skin, killing the bacteria that cause acne without creating dryness, redness, or pain.

RED light therapy can be used on its own as a skin rejuvenator or in conjunction with BLUE light acne treatments. RED photo-light therapy penetrates deeper layers of skin, stimulating collagen to grow new, healthy skin cells. This helps give you a smoother, healthier looking complexion by improving skin tone and texture, reducing pore size, filling in fine lines or wrinkles, and reducing redness.

The device measures just 3 inches by .08 inches for easy handling and storage. Its slim profile also makes it easy to slip into a purse, pocket, or overnight bag for use anywhere.

For multi-faceted acne treatment, you can purchase ANSR: PREP exfoliating cleanser and ANSR: DAY and ANSR: NIGHT lotions (each sold separately), which contain the trademarked Aurazin blend of natural ingredients to help keeps oil from clogging your pores. For a starter set, consider these additional topicals (sold separately). You can also purchase ANSR: SERUM (sold separately), which works with the BEAM to help restore skin texture and tone.

Flawless Skin! Worked on me the first day, I cleared up all confusion on HOW and why to use it with lots of reading
Update: After using this for several weeks I wanted to give the whole breakdown on the process. The first week I noticed blemishes on the skin surface were small, or went away as well as tiny bumps under the surface of the skin. Towards the second week, things were brought to the surface so while I saw more breakouts surface and began to wonder if this was supposed to be happening, they were kept small with using the Answr and could be covered by good foundation. By the end of that week I noticed my pores were smaller because they were obviously totally cleared of excess oils or bacteria. By the third week for the first time ever I was able to stop using foundation entirely with crystal smooth skin, small pores, a flawless complexion. That said, the instructions say it could be 4 weeks. I did notice that when I used the red light as well more, that I did indeed have cellular regeneration meaning that my skin began creating a fresh later and the top layer sloughed off. Like a...
Wonderful
I've had globular cystic acne since 1975. Tried every prescription and over the counter product, and still was trapped with cysts that had to be injected each month to resolve them...and THIS WORKS!!! I've got a box full of medications I no longer need...just this amazing little light machine.

Don't waste any more time...the ANSR is an incredible product and does exactly what it claims. I have polycystic ovaries which cause horrible hormonal cystic acne on my chin and I also get regular non-cystic acne everywhere else on my face. The ANSR has gotten rid of all of it. I still use prescription topicals, but even with every prescription available, my skin use to be horrible, with multiple cysts that would last for weeks or months, even after being injected. I started to see results within 2 days and after two weeks my skin was 100% clear. I have not had a single cyst for 3 months and only a couple of very minor whiteheads. ANSR is the best thing I have ever tried, and believe me, I have tried everything and have spared no expense in my quest for clear skin. Just use the ANSR as directed both morning and night (My routine is to wash skin, ANSR for 10 minutes - 5 blue and 5 red, moisturize, apply topicals, apply a thin layer of benzoil peroxide on known problem areas) and...
