I'm in my early 40s.
I have rosacea on my cheeks which is so sensitive I can only use Cetaphil on it. I've tried everything but it all makes it worse.
I rarely wear makeup on my cheeks because it invariably brings me out in raised bumps. I would like to cover it up all the time but the effect would mean that I end up wearing more and more makeup and it would become self-defeating.
So my first question is - has anyone used IPL or other laser treatments on rosacea? If so was it successful?
I also have 11 lines and they need botox but I'm allergic to a few things.
So my next question is has anyone had an allergic reaction to botox.
My third question is what can be done for nasolabial lines? I mean the ones that go from my nose to my mouth? I think they are caused by cheek droop! I don't want surgery at the moment. Would they need fillers? Is there an alternative?
