This site is written for our Rosacea-Ltd III patients living outside of the United States International.
The "Pharmaceutical Mechanism of Action will help you to understand why Rosacea-Ltd III works." A direct delivery of the ingredients to the affected area always has an advantage over a systemic treatment such as accutane or tetracycline. Only the affected skin is penetrated and migration in the rosacea-affected area by the ingredients which are helpful. The main ingredients of Rosacea-Ltd III are listed immediately below and following the ingredients you will find the "Pharmaceutical Mechanism of Action":
- A. Zinc: Physician have used zinc for decades for the topical treatment of acne and seborrheic dermatitis and rosacea. Often Zinc has been the primary ingredient for the treatment of rosacea. Currently, zinc is found in several different active forms in hundreds of medications. Zinc has been shown to have a potent antiseptic effect as well anti-bacterial and anti-fungal actions (Drs. Provost and Farmer). Drs. Rock, Wilkinson, and Ebling found zinc to have anti-inflammatory actions on the redness of the skin due to rosacea, acne and seborrheic dermatitis.
- B. Sulfur: Roughly years 3,000 B.C. and until about 1940 sulfur was used topically on wounds in battle as well as small skin injuries in the lives of the average family members. Just prior to WW II, antibiotics began to be used on the battlefields and more widely used with the civilian population. And often since that time, antibiotics has been over used resulting in resistant strains of bacterial. Antibiotics can be extremely beneficial when there is a systemic bacterial infection as the antibiotic works well systemically throughout the body. However, there are some negative effects also the good bacteria is killed in the body resulting in vaginal yeast infections as well as oral yeast in both men and women. Since 1970, sulfur has been used for the treatment of rosacea, and clinical studies have demonstrated that it is extremely effective in the treatment of rosacea-related papules and pustules (Drs. Ellis and Strawiski). A few dermatologists meet the needs of their rosacea patient treatment with by varying the concentration of sulfur in a given preparation (from 2 percent to 15 percent sulfur). Rosacea-Ltd III uses 0.99% in the tan disk and 1.99% in the yellow disk. As rosacea, acne, eczema and psoriasis are usually long term skin diseases, antibiotics are not a good long term treatment plan as treatment must usually be continued for a long period of time. For this reason, Drs. Blom and Hornmark were interested in a non-toxic, topically administered treatment that would be as effective as orally administered drugs such as antibiotics. To date, these physicians use topical sulfur as their primary anti-rosacea treatment (Drs. Blom and Hornmark). In a double-blind clinical study of 40 rosacea patients, these physicians found that rosacea-related papules and pustules responded much better to topical 10 percent sulfur than to oral antibiotics. More specifically, they found that with four weeks of topical sulfur treatment, the average number of papules and pustules dropped significantly (from 213 pimples before treatment to 17 pimples after treatment), and that this clearing was much better than that attained by treatment with oral tetracycline. In a separate series of clinical studies, similar results were found by Dr. Strauss and colleagues (Dr. Strauss).
- C. Sodium Chloride, Copper Oxide, Magnesium Stearate and Polyethelene Glycol: These ingredients have long been well known for their anti-bacterial, anti-inflammatory actions, by which they reduce redness better than antibiotics, and their vascular constrictor action, which reduces overall facial redness whereas no other products constricts the dilated skin vessels as these ingredients do so well.
The Four Mechanisms of Action by which these primary ingredients work as listed above are as follows:
- Rosacea-Ltd is a vascular constrictor, so it reduces the size of the capillaries that cause redness and blushing.
- Rosacea-Ltd has a pH of approximately 7.0 (neutral). Many oral and topical treatments for rosacea are very acidic, which often makes for a continual problem for many rosacea sufferers and especially so in pregnancy and breast feeding. Rosacea-Ltd is 100% safe for use by pregnant and nursing mothers.
- Rosacea-Ltd easily penetrates the skin and changes the pH of the skin. The penetration by the ingredients easily kills bacteria, virus and fungal cells by osmosis.
- Rosacea-Ltd is anti-inflammatory, thereby reducing redness (much better than antibiotics which bacteria, virus & fungal cells become immune to after 2-5 months).
You do not have to live with inflamed rosacea which is often accompanied by acne pimples and sometimes seborrheic dermatitis. The following findings have been made:
- Treatment with Rosacea-Ltd resulted in a visible decrease in rosacea-related facial redness. Most rosacea sufferers were able to see significant results in less than two weeks after the initial application.
- Treatment with Rosacea-Ltd resulted in a reduction of the size of the capillaries (spidery vessels or spider veins) that cause redness and blushing within four to six weeks.
- Treatment with Rosacea-Ltd resulted in a rapid clearing of rosacea papules and pustules within five to ten days, while assisting in the prevention of future acne pimples and rosacea-related papules.

TREATING ROSACEA NATURALLY
Changes in our skin are inevitable as we age, but some changes can be progressive or regressive depending on the influences we make on our skin. Some things we cannot avoid, others we can control. Often minor adjustments are needed in our lifestyles for progressive change as lifestyle if often a major culprit in searching for the cause of rosacea.
Drink enough water to keep the body and skin well hydrated. The skin is the body’s largest organ and the first to show signs of dehydration through flushing, redness, clogged pores and wrinkles.
Avoid stress. Stress takes a major toll on the body and the skin. Find ways to relax and take time out for yourself.
Keep the skin well moisturized. An excellent moisturizer can be most helpful in protecting the skin from dryness. We suggest 100% pure Jojoba oil. Jojoba oil is very similar to the natural restorative oil produced by the sebaceous glands in the dermal layers of the skin. Jojoba oil is non-allergenic and will not clog the pores. It has been used for centuries to soothe and aid in healing the skin. Jojoba oil will aid the skin in reversing the damage to the epidermis caused by harsh soaps, facial washes, and topical acne and rosacea medications. Jojoba oil also helps replace moisture lost from the use of facial peels, chemical treatments, laser and light treatments. When starting a new rosacea treatment, allow the skin to benefit fully from the rosacea treatment by preparing the rosacea sensitive skin, and allowing the skin to heal from the effects of previous aggressive rosacea treatments, which may have left the skin damaged or overly sensitive. Jojoba Oil will soothe the skin and allow the healing to begin. Jojoba Oil can be found in health consious stores and shops in your area or visit JojobaCare online to learn more about jojoba oil's restorative properties and how to purchase.
Use the right cleanser. Starting with the right cleanser can make all the difference with your success or failure in treating rosacea. Many soaps and cleansers are too harsh on the skin and can contain fragrances that irritate and inflame your rosacea. Cetaphil "moisturizing gentle cleansing bar for dry, sensitive skin" Cetaphil® "moisturizing gentle cleansing bar for dry, sensitive skin" has provided excellent results for acne and rosacea-affected skin. Other good soaps include Neutrogena "dry skin formula," Dove bar soap, and Noxzema shaving cream for sensitive skin. Neutrogena "dry skin formula," , Dove bar soap, and Noxzema shaving cream for sensitive skin. These cleansers can also be found locally where you shop
Avoid diuretics, which can further dehydrate the skin. Coffee and tea and diet sodas are diuretics. If you need your morning caffeine, strive for balance rather than excess.
Limit your intake of spicy foods. Spicy foods are thermally hot and often result in flushing.
Treatment of rosacea needs to begin with an understanding of what causes or influences your rosacea. Rosacea sufferers have on average more facial blood vessels than the general population, or they have blood vessels, which are more prominent or severely damaged. Consequently, anything that stimulates facial dilation cannot be handled easily or properly. Understanding what cause or etiology of the vessel dilation will assist you very much in controlling the factors that aggravate your rosacea.
Treating Acne
