Rosacea is a long-term inflammatory skin condition that commonly causes facial redness, flushing, visible blood vessels and acne-like spots. Symptoms often come and go but may gradually worsen without appropriate treatment.
At Dermal Plus Clinic in Peterborough, we provide comprehensive rosacea assessments and personalised treatment plans designed to control inflammation, reduce flare-ups and improve your skin’s overall health and appearance.
Every treatment plan is tailored to your symptoms, skin type and lifestyle.
