Rosacea
Appearance
Rosacea is a chronic skin condition characterized by facial redness and visible blood vessels, often accompanied by acne-like bumps. It primarily affects the central part of the face, including the cheeks, nose, chin, and forehead.
Causes
Overactive immune system, sun exposure, extreme temperatures and wind, lifestyle Factors i.e. stress, alcohol consumption, spicy foods, and hot beverages, microorganisms i.e. Demodex mite, Helobacter Pylori.
Mechanism
Rosacea involves a combination of genetic and environmental factors leading to inflammation and vascular changes. This results in the dilation of small blood vessels and increased blood flow to the skin, causing redness and visible veins. The inflammatory response also contributes to the development of bumps and pimples.

Supplements for Scarring
(Practitioner-Only Supplements)
METAGENICS
MetaPure EPA/DHA
MetaPure EPA/DHA capsules help treat acne through their anti-inflammatory properties. The high concentration of Omega-3 fatty acids, particularly EPA and DHA, can reduce systemic inflammation, which in turn may lower the occurrence and severity of acne. EPA, can also inhibit the production of leukotriene B4, a substance that regulates sebum production.
Studies have shown a 40-50% decrease in acne lesions after 10 weeks of daily supplementation with 2000mg of EPA/DHA.
METAGENICS
MetaZinc
Zinc supplementation can significantly aid in acne treatment by reducing inflammation, which calms acne lesions. It enhances the immune system’s ability to fight acne-causing bacteria and helps regulate sebum production, preventing clogged pores. Additionally, zinc promotes faster wound healing, reducing the risk of scarring, and provides antioxidant protection to skin cells.
METAGENICS
Ultra Flora Spectrum
The specific Probiotic strains in Ultra Flora help treat acne by balancing the gut microbiome, which in turn influences skin health. An imbalance of gut bacteria, known as dysbiosis, can lead to systemic inflammation and affect the skin's barrier function, contributing to acne. Probiotics support the growth of beneficial bacteria, reducing inflammation and potentially lowering the incidence of acne. They can also enhance the skin's natural defenses, improve immune function, and reduce oxidative stress, all of which contribute to healthier, clearer skin.
