Can somebody get micro-Botox on nose for Rosacea?

Question

Is it safe to get dilute Botox on nose, that is red bc of Rosacea?

Jason Emer, MD · Answer

I recommend getting a formal evaluation with a cosmetic dermatologist. For rosacea, I like a combination approach, using lasers (ProYellow, Pulsed Dye/Vbeam, Excel V, BBL, Pico), peels and botox to the cheeks. This makes dramatic changes in color and symptoms. See an expert. Best, Dr. Emer

Hi @KMAMK! Botox can help improve the redness by helping the hyperactive capillaries in the area affected by rosacea. I hope this was helpful!

The short answer to the question is yea, and I have performed it on a number of occasions with gratifying results. Just make sure to consult with an experienced, board certified dermatologist injector. Best of luck.

Thank you, KMAMK for your question.

Yes, you can proceed with the botox after consultation with a board-certified dermatologist with the right dilutions of botox.

Wish you an alluring look.

It might help slightly with the redness as it will calm the hyperactive capillaries in the area affected with rosacea. It is not really worth it to us as we will charge for unit, but we will need to charge a bit more as we would need to use a dermal stamper.
