seeing my derm tomorrow... question
I am going for skin check but my question is about rosacea. Been given finacea before but I never saw an improvement. One cheek is now actually getting the broken blood vessels now and would love to hear about any dermatologist medications that reallllly help. Laser is not a financial option right now. Tia!!!!

I'm on a mix of Finacea and Oracea. The Oracea is a miracle drug. I have mild rosacea , very little flushing but annoying and painful pink acne like bumps. The Oracea completely clears my skin. No side effects at all. I highly recommend trying it if your not allergic to doxycyclin.

I use Monodox (a pill) whenever my Rosacea flares up. I too found that Finacea pretty much did nothing. I've not found any cream that makes any difference to me.
good luck!

I use finacea and metrogel. If I dont use both everyday it flares back up but if Im consistent it keeps it away. I also use mirvaso for the redness and it is AMAZING.
