Dilated capillaries are becoming more of a problem every day. As an esthetician I have been seeing what seems to be a growing number of people with extensive redness on their cheeks, nose and surrounding area and the chin. As soon as I spot it I know that my client has dilated capillaries which often come with rosacea.
What is rosacea and why do I have dilated capillaries?
This question I often hear from my customers. Rosacea is a common skin disorder. The medical term for the condition is Telangiectasia Rosacea. This condition generally affects the face (prime sites are around the mouth and nose). If you think you have rosacea, look for small-threadlike veins (dilated capillaries) close to surface of the skin, which when clustered together look like a red bruise. However, unlike normal bruises, the bruises presented by dilated capillaries don’t fade.
What caused rosacea and dilated capillaries?
Dilated capillaries are caused by climate, stimulants, inappropriate beauty products, red wine, spicy food, over exposure to the sun, extreme cold weather and wind, skin injury, washing face with hot water, smoking and good old genetics. There are the number of ways dilated capillaries can be treated. During the Holiday season and cold weather people who have this problem have to be more careful and follow esthetician advice:
- Cut back spicy food, red wine or alcohol
- If weather is cold and windy apply extra moisturizer with SPF
- Use appropriate skin care products, even when you travel throughout the holiday season
Tips from our esthetician: Rosacea sufferers, I highly recommend you use Dr Irina Eris skin care products. They are specially formulated to treat rosacea and dilated capillaries. Start by washing your face with Pharmaceris Cleansing Gel for dilated capillaries (do not forget to use room temperature water).Gently remove cleanser, pat your face dry and apply Pharmaceris Gentle Strengthening Toner. The next step is very important! Apply K-Derm Vitamin K 2% on the affected areas (wonderful product, very rare to find). Finish with Pharmaceris Eye Cream for dilated capillaries and Pharmaceris Intensive Nourishment Cream. If your skin is oily use Pharmaceris Multi-Smoothening Cream for oily skin SPF 15, or for dry skin use Pharmaceris Moisturizing and Strengthening Cream SPF 15. NOTE: You should regularly avoid intensive scrubbing of your face and do not use hot or cold water, only room temperature water.
