I developed Rosacea at age 22. I'm now almost 35 and have tried oral and topical products with no results. I finally just gave them up and tried a few changes in my routine. I no longer use liquid fabric softener in my 'towel' laundry load and I wear sunscreen whenever I'm going to be outdoors for any length of time. I also have been using Noxema in the shower to wash my face. The directions on Prosacea state not to use menthol facial cremes. So after using Prosacea for 3 weeks now, twice a day, I've noticed significant reduction in the redness on my nose. I no longer look like Rudolph, instead I look as though I have a slight blush to my complexion. I had redness, white and red bumps, dry skin on the tip of my nose and small veins. After the first day of usage, I noticed a change! The dry skin was the first to go after a few days, and then the bumps. The redness and veins are still there, but greatly reduced. This does not make my skin feel like my face has been pulled to the back of my head - and the smell is pretty much non existant. So far I've had a really nice experience with this product and would HIGHLY recommend it to anyone looking for a product that actually works!

needed something for rosacea that seemed to pop up over a 2-3 month period, and takes too long to get in to dermatologist. This actually works pretty good...I was surprised. I have very sensitive skin, and it helped the red bumps to get smaller that were popping up everywhere. I would recommend it, definitely!!

      Comments about Prosacea Rosacea Treatment Gel, .75 oz:

      for years I've tried all the prescription gels and cremes for rosacea and none of them worked for me. I even tried Oracea (oral low dose antibiotic for rosacea).... I got much better results from Prosacea right away, so I'll be using it from now on. Anything that takes the reddness down and tightens pores is a miracle.
      A possible problem however that I am still researching: One week after I started using Prosacea my dog (9 lbs.) had severe vomiting and bloody diarrhea necessitating an emergency vet visit. So I am wondering about the toxicity of sulfur to pets since my dog sometimes licks my face. Researching this online hasn't answered the question and my vet referred me to a animal poison control hotline that charges $60 a call, so I'm still trying to figure this out! Until then I'm not letting my dog lick my face... I know some people use sulfur based powder on their dogs, but maybe for small dogs only a tiny bit of sulfur can be problematic. When I called the manufacturer of Prosacea they said they had not tested it with pets so they were not helpful (although they did respond).

        I have used this product in the past and work great!!! For awhile my skin was clear from rosacea pimples, though still red in the cheeks some. a couple of months ago my skin just went crazy breaking out on both sides of my face. Pimples just kept reproducing one after another. So I decided to order it again. I got it on thursday and within 3-4 days a major difference, reddness lightened up, pimples stopped and the ones existing dried up immediately!!! I am greatly thankful for this product!!

        Comments about Prosacea Rosacea Treatment Gel, .75 oz:

        I have seen a dermatologist for many years regarding my 20 year struggle with rosacea. Tried many prescription products, but always had side effects. Prosacea has been a miracle product for me. Have used it consistently for 5 years and I never have the red, bumpy breakouts I suffered in the past. And it costs less than prescription medication also!

            Comments about Prosacea Rosacea Treatment Gel, .75 oz:

            I have redness on my nose, chin and cheeks; it substantially keeps it at bay. Occasionally I get a pimple...on my nose or chin. I add a small "dollop" directly over it at night after cleansing my skin; the pimple is substantially less red. If it has a white-head...the white-head is hardened and I can just pick it off.

              This OTC product works for my rosacea.
              You use very little to achieve results. After 10 days,most of my outbreak was gone. The itching stopped the second day I used it.
              For the price,you can't beat it!

                  I actually wish the sulfur content was a little higher in the product, but it works better than anything I've ever tried for rosacea. I use it twice a day! It does not seem to help the broken capillaries, but still helps alot with the redness and puffiness.
