For those prone to Rosacea, a few simple lifestyle changes can yield noticeable results. Alcohol, caffeine and spicy foods are all charged with aggravating Rosacea as is steam and extreme temperatures on both ends of the thermometer. Start by eliminating one aggressor at a time so you can clearly pinpoint how each change affects your skin. Keeping a diary of daily activities or events and relating them to any flare-ups you may experience may be very helpful. Luckily, everyone has different triggers so chances are you won’t need to abstain from the entire list.

There are few sensations more publicly uncomfortable than blushing - the telltale sign of embarrassment. Imagine if you experienced this pesky flush of color every day. For the estimated 16 million Americans who suffer from Rosacea, daily redness is a reality.

This chronic skin condition categorized as inflammation of the cheeks, nose, chin, forehead or eyelids. It may appear as redness, prominent spider-like blood vessels, swelling or skin eruptions similar to acne. Rosacea can strike at any time, but is most likely to surface around age 30.

While there’s no cure for Rosacea, the good news is you can manage and even eliminate redness and irritation with the right combination of prevention, treatment and protection.

Stay tuned this week while we explore this common vascular condition and offer treatment protocols to ease its symptoms.

Dr. Zein Obagi says: "Stick with a simple regimen using products from only one company. If you mix and match brands you're more likely to have redundancy - too much of one ingredient - or not enough of another."

The relationship between fruit and vegetable intake and skin tone are strongly influenced by carotenoids. Eating carotenoid rich fruits and vegetables can improve skin tone and appearance particularly with foods containing lycopene which affects skin tone and polyphenols that support microcirculation and elasticity. Skin healthy food choices include tomatoes, red bell peppers and blackberries!

Like no other organ, the skin is exposed to multiple stressors from our external environment and within the body. When we are exposed to a “stressor" the body triggers a cascade of hormonal and nervous system reactions. The fluctuations in hormones with acute and chronic stress stimulate an inflammatory response within the skin and offset the skin’s balance and immune defense. These combined mechanisms are believed to impair the healing process of “break outs” and offset skin’s natural cellular balance.

If you can manage your stress, your skin will also manage itself back to its natural healthy glow!
