Rosacea (Part 2) – Getting treatment right first time
from Rash Decisions · host AproDerm®
“...when you then see the patient who comes in [with] rosacea and they [have] then got the broken capillaries, the blood vessels starting to appear. It's not that my heart sinks when I see those, compared to a patient with simple background flushing, but I start thinking, we're in for a slightly trickier time here to start pulling them back.” Dr Roger Henderson. In this episode, your hosts, Dr George Moncrieff and Dr Roger Henderson discuss the treatment options available across the rosacea spectrum. From how to treat simple flushing and background redness through to ocular involvement and Rhinophyma. With over 70 years' combined experience in primary care, listen in to learn from these two expert GPs as they share their knowledge and practical tips on rosacea treatments. This episode includes: Discussing lifestyle changes and trigger avoidance with your patients The importance of emollients as part of a daily routine The variety of treatment options available, both on the NHS and privately, when to use them appropriately, including anti-inflammatory and camouflage products, as well as laser therapy The association between Demodex mites and rosacea The various ocular manifestations and their treatment options The advances of rhinophyma debulking But, be warned, by the end of this podcast, you might just be walking around with the same thoughts as George... “...I see a lot of people walking around the streets who've still got very nasty inflammatory papulopustular rosacea. I'm just desperate to talk to them because, I know we've got such effective treatments.” Thank you to our kind sponsor AproDerm, who provide a comprehensive range of quality emollients designed for the management of dry skin conditions, including eczema, psoriasis and ichthyosis.
