But all in all, what I hope everyone can take away form all of these ideas is that the skin's natural barrier function (deficiency) is the route cause of papulopustular rosacea. Everything else...

Also, heat intolerance for PPR:

This is a good article that compares acne vulgaris with papulopustular rosacea (PPR), and discusses the barrier function of the skin and how it is significantly decreased with papulopustular rosacea:...

So a couple more things....

Yes this is a very complicated, multi-factorial condition. But....They've shown that the main things that people with type 2 rosacea have in common is a decreased...

Babadah, I'm talking type 2 rosacea, not just type 1 with redness. Type 1 rosacea to me is just people who genetically have more vasculature in their face, but probably have an adequate water...

Oh, and before I forget, one other thought on lasers and IPL and such. Because "flushing" increases blood flow and creates a heating effect which will of course lead to dryness of the face which =...

So I've come to realize what I believe is the route cause of type 2 rosacea. I believe that when you have papulopustular rosacea (Type 2), the route cause is that you have a decreased water barrier...

I too looked online but you need a script for any online international pharmacy to get Accutane. I was thinking about doing a trial just to see what wold happen....but for oral meds, they are more...

Wow Brady, you know way more than I do about this subject matter!!! I'm glad someone is paying attention!

That will be good news for sure! Research is confusing sometimes.

...also I posted this in the general section but might be worth posting here as well...I do love research. This reviews what to look for in cleansers and moisturizers:
...

I've really come to realize that the absolute biggest (and only real significant) trigger for me is anything that dries out my face, namely...indoor heat. Outdoor heat makes me sweat and my skin...

I can't believe I never saw this research article, very nice that dermatologists decided to study this...

I'm glad that they are really taking control of the research.....I feel that they really need to separate type 1 and 2 rosacea when doing research, they also need to come out with different names for...

Olay complete sensitive skin is the only thing I'll use, it's relatively cheap for what they give you, and it was recommended to me by a really good dermatologist 15 years ago.

This is true and can be frustrating, but ivermectin came out this year and seems to be helping a lot of people. They started experimenting with low dose accutane again which I believe is very...

Just in case anyone wants to keep abreast of what research is being done for rosacea treatments, just check here:

Does it bother anyone else that drugs such as axithromycin, which are really effective for papulopustular rosacea, can't be continued long-term? Same thing goes for minocycline 100 mg bid, it's very...

Neutrogena Sensitive Skin spf 60 is the best I've tried. Avoid chemical sunblocks. Look for zinc oxide as the main ingredient. If it makes your face too white, buy herbal choice marie beige...

Here's another good article for fractional microneedling radio frequency treatment for papulopustular rosacea:

I had been on the max dose (80 mg daily) of accutane about 17 years ago when I had rosacea and acne, my rosacea was never better than when I was on 80 mg daily. Also, if you have type 2, your...

My humble thoughts are that if you have papules and pustules all over your face, it may be mites, but if its just in the T-zone/central area of your face and you notice that that area is very oily in...

If those people exist, I bet they aren't on this board anymore as isotretinoin/accutane will probably take care of type 2 rosacea. I would love for the company to really push their research to show...

So the trick is, take doxycycline 40 mg right before drinking and put on a topical also right before (metrogel or finacea (or both in that order allowing 2 mins in between application to allow the...

Sugar is a definite source of inflammation in the body, and I also believe that alcohol in general is an irritant (which is why vodka and such burns when you do a shot of it), and all sources of...
