Kkeuthan Clinic Rosacea Treatment

Rosacea can be broadly divided into vascular rosacea and reactive rosacea.

Vascular rosacea refers to a type of rosacea where capillaries are visible to the naked eye,

If thin capillaries are visible to the naked eye, vascular lasers such as Vbeam and Excel V are

the primary choice.

In such cases, since the fixed blood vessels need to be ‘eliminated’, treatment through direct thermal coagulation is necessary.

However, the important thing is that if only this treatment is done, there's a high chance it will recur within 3 to 6 months.

Therefore, after removal, management to reduce the skin's reactivity itself must be combined.

Reactive rosacea is a flushing type that easily reddens whenever stimulated,

where the blood vessels are not dilated, but rather their reactivity itself is hypersensitive.

In this case, vascular lasers may have minimal effect or even act as a stimulus, worsening the redness.

In such cases, the key treatment is Needle RF (Microneedle RF), famous for devices like Secret and Potenza.

The mechanism by which Secret RF treatment improves rosacea is as follows:

1. Dermal Regeneration Induction

“Fundamentally improving skin structure”

Needle RF stimulates fibroblasts by applying high-frequency heat to the dermis.

As a result, ECM components such as collagen, elastin, and hyaluronic acid are regenerated,

→ increasing the density and elasticity of the dermis,

→ and shallow blood vessels become less reactive to external stimuli and less visible.

In other words, as the skin's foundation becomes firmer, blood vessels do not fluctuate easily.

2. Vasomotor Regulation

“Calming sensitive blood vessels”

The core of reactive rosacea is that blood vessels expand too easily.

Needle RF stabilizes the smooth muscles of blood vessels through repeated thermal stimulation, reducing hypersensitive

autonomic nervous system signals. This gradually reduces flushing symptoms.

3. Inflammation Suppression

“Extinguishing inflammation within the skin”

In skin with chronic rosacea, inflammatory cytokines such as IL-1β, TNF-α, and VEGF are overproduced,

→ dilating blood vessels,

→ stimulating melanin production,

→ and causing persistent redness.

Needle RF can be expected to have an anti-inflammatory effect by suppressing inflammatory mediators with localized heat in the dermal layer, thereby stabilizing chronic inflammatory rosacea.

4. Sebaceous Gland Stabilization

“Less sebum means less heat and less redness”

Excessive sebum production raises skin temperature, which in turn makes blood vessels expand more easily and worsens redness.

Needle RF delivers heat to the dermal layer around the sebaceous glands to reduce sebum secretion to a certain level. Especially in oily + rosacea skin, heat sensation and burning can be improved simultaneously.

5. Neurological Hypersensitivity Regulation

“Reducing neurotransmitters that induce redness”

When the skin is stimulated, vasodilatory neuropeptides such as Substance P and CGRP are secreted from sensory nerve endings. These substances dilate blood vessels and induce redness, heat sensation, and burning.

Repeated Needle RF treatments reduce the reactivity of these nerve endings, thereby decreasing excessive redness.

Flushing isn't just a problem of the skin surface turning red.

Beneath the surface lie issues such as a thinned dermal layer, an overactive nervous system, persistent inflammation, and problems with the sebaceous glands.

Excel V, Vbeam laser, and Secret, Potenza Needle RF each

play a role in eliminating surface issues and improving the skin environment,

and only when these two approaches are well harmonized will flushing not reappear.

While clearing existing issues is important, 'environmental improvement' is the true treatment.
