I am currently taking a cheap vitamin A supplement and the results have been very promising. Significantly less redness, soreness and bumps, a family member actually commented that I looked pale!

I've been off now for 3 months to prepare for an operation, and already all the bumps and broken blood vessels and hives, and itching, and red flushes have come back. I can't wait to go back on. I have convinced many a major dermatologist that this works. They didn't believe me (on example was a particularly famous professor at chelsea hospital in london) now he does. And he helped me for the last 2 years. I'm so grateful for it. But then when you have to go off if you want children or in my case an operation (because it impairs healing) you realize, there's got to be something better less dangerous out there. good luck!

But with rosacea it has directly affected my earning ability and mental stability It usually takes 3 doctors before I can convince one to put me on a low dosage of accutane (usa), roaccutane (europe). I go through the same stories, present photos and shed tears in desperation to avoid going through all the topical and oral perspcriptions they give before they finally give up and turn to what has been the only thing to help. Top dermatologists worldwide have doubted and blatantly denied that this could help me, until after all the anitbiotics, lotions, allergy tests and steroids yield no result. Takes about 1 month to show them what I've been saying all this time. After moving to the UK I had to go through it all over again. For one year I have lost jobs, shed tears, and resorted to anti-depresants because my life is so affected by this. finally I have started again my first pill yesterday after all their remedies failed. I will be normal again. But how is is that no one has taught doctors how well accutane and roaccutane can help. I have been on low dosage for 15 years (on and off depending on if I've moved and have to convince someone to please put me back on) Sure I'd prefer not to have to take it. but the eczema, and acne and flushing, and scaling and investment of hundreds of dollars only make life impossible with out it. I wish you good luck. I have to be one longest users of accutane/roaccutane going on 16 years. I have thins skin, the palest of the pale and red hair. It comes with the package. I take 20mg every other day or every 3rd day here in Uk and 10 every other or 2nd day in usa. after months i have even been able to control the symptoms of papules, acne, eczema, intensely hot flushing, broken blood vessels, swollen and sensitive scaling by only taking 20 mg once a week.
