Soolantra for rosacea?

4 replies

Bellballbune · 17/04/2024 08:37

I’ve got mild rosacea. it’s literally come out of nowhere - I’m 54. Mostly it’s random red bumps and blemishes that arrive some days - in different places on one cheek. And sometimes on tip of nose. It’s weird, not how I imagined rosacea to be and surprising to get it now. Oh well.

i tried the antibiotic gel Roses (?) and that didn’t change it. So yesterday I started with Soolanta (?). Today there are more blemishes than usual.

is it a case of gets worse before gets better or does it mean it’s not for me?

I literally have the same problem and went searching for answers in google. My dermatologist just recommended it and I cannot contact him until may. Please did you receive any advice?

Yes some people find it gets worse before it gets better, theory is it’s due to the mites dying off.

I have the same type of rosacea (pustular - delightful!). You need to keep using the Soolantra until the bumps clear up, and yes usually the next day it looks worse. I find once the bumps have cleared up, they stay away for quite a while. Keep at it- the results will be worth it!

I haven't tried soolantra but a prescription formula from dermatica cleared mine up.
