Answer: A Number of Good Treatments
Fortunately, there are a number of excellent products out there which will both help with Rosacea and have potent anti-aging ingredients. Two of them have the most potent antioxidants in the world: RevaleSkin and Aveeno's Ultra-calming cream. I had always thought that RevaleSkin's CoffeeBerry was the supreme antioxidant. After all in the ORAC (Oxagen radical Absorbance Capacity) scale, the CoffeeBerry was something like 10 times stronger than green tea and 14 times stronger than pomegranite. I found out that FeverFew is about five times stronger than CoffeeBerry.
Many of my patients with Rosacea have used RevaleSkin. Its formulation does not seem to break them out and there has been a substantial improvement in their redness.
Other good products for rosacea which have anti-aging ingredients include Neostrata's Bionic Cream and Purpose Redness Relief. Products containing Niacinamide are also excellent for improving erythema as well as providing protection against photoaging.
One tip: If your dermatologist has not not put you on Oracea, it would not be a bad idea to do so. Low dose Doxycycline acts as an anti-inflammatory agent. If you believe in the inflammatory cause of skin aging, as I do, you would be advised to take this medication. People that believe in this theory maintain that the sun and other factors sets off low-grade inflammation which produces factors such as matrix metalloproteinases. Studies have shown that Orracea decreases the amount of Matrix metalloproeinases. These collagenases break down our collagen.
The reason I like the above products as they all have sunscreen agents. The sun generally makes rosacea worse and of course the sun leads to photoaging by definition.
Thank you for asking a good question.
