What is Rosacea Treatment?
Rosacea causes persistent redness, flushing, visible vessels and sometimes acne-like bumps. Dermatologists in Apgujeong treat it with vascular lasers such as V-beam and Excel V, IPL, and in some cases Sylfirm X, combined with medication like metronidazole, ivermectin cream or low-dose doxycycline.
Visitors often book a course of vascular laser sessions alongside a medical consultation.
How it works
Vascular lasers seal small dilated vessels that cause redness. Medication reduces inflammation and bumps. Lifestyle triggers such as heat, alcohol and spicy food are identified and reduced.

Rosacea Treatment questions
Is rosacea the same as sensitive skin?
No. Rosacea is a chronic condition with flushing and vessel changes, while sensitive skin reacts to products without these patterns.
Should I choose V-beam or Excel V for rosacea?
Both are main options for vessel redness. V-beam is a 595 nm dye laser, Excel V uses 532 and 1064 nm and also treats brown spots; IPL is used when redness and pigment are mixed.
Will rosacea come back after laser?
Redness often returns over time, so many people do maintenance sessions once or twice a year.
Can I get rosacea medication in Korea?
Yes, a dermatologist can prescribe topical or oral medication after a consultation.
Does alcohol make rosacea worse?
Yes, alcohol is a common trigger for flushing.
Are skincare products a trigger for rosacea?
Fragrance, alcohol-based toners and strong exfoliants can trigger flares, so dermatologists recommend gentle, fragrance-free products.
