Rosacea is a chronic inflammatory skin condition that manifests as redness, dilated capillaries, a sensation of burning or sensitivity, flare-ups, and sometimes papulopustular eruptions.


It’s not just an aesthetic issue


Rosacea has a serious impact on quality of life, self-esteem, and emotional well-being. Many patients feel compelled to hide their skin under layers of makeup, avoid an active lifestyle, hot drinks, saunas, sun exposure, and certain foods.


Modern laser medicine makes it possible to effectively manage the vascular component of rosacea, reduce persistent redness, eliminate visible capillary “networks,” and significantly improve the appearance and condition of the skin. At the clinic of international expert Dr. Uskov, we use personalized laser treatment protocols based on international scientific data and over 15 years of practical experience.


It is important to understand that full treatment of rosacea must be comprehensive, involving cooperation between multiple specialists, including dermatologists and cosmetologists.

Relevance of the problem


According to the European Society of Dermatologists, rosacea affects 10–15% of adult patients, most often women with fair and sensitive skin, but it can also occur in men and in later adulthood.


In the past, rosacea was considered an incurable condition that one simply had to “accept.” Today, the approach is different: -rosacea can be effectively controlled -skin quality can be improved -vascular manifestations can be eliminated

Symptoms we work with:


  • persistent redness (erythema) of the cheeks, nose, chin, forehead

  • telangiectasias — visible dilated capillaries

  • sensitivity, burning, or a sensation of heat

  • redness that does not subside after rest

  • secondary complications — pigmentation and skin thickening.



Course of treatment


Before starting treatment, a thorough diagnostic evaluation is carried out:

  • visual assessment of the severity of the vascular component

  • digital dermatoscopy (to determine vessel diameter and depth)

  • UV-light and infrared imaging (to assess hidden vessels)

  • evaluation of accompanying skin conditions, since rosacea may coexist with seborrhea, demodicosis, or acne.


Based on these findings, Dr. Uskov develops a personalized treatment protocol and selects the optimal laser parameters.


Which lasers do we use?


Our clinic uses all recommended wavelengths to target different depths and vessel types:

  • IPL (515–640 nm): for diffuse erythema and telangiectasias

  • Nd:YAG (1064 nm): for deeper vessels and larger capillaries

  • KTP (532 nm): for superficial, fine capillaries on the cheeks and nose

  • Picosecond and fractional lasers: as part of combination protocols when pigmentation, thickening, or post-inflammatory changes are present


How many sessions does it take?


To achieve a noticeable and lasting effect, a course of 2–4 sessions spaced 3–12 weeks apart is usually required.

After just the first session, most patients report:

  • reduced redness

  • lightening of vascular networks

  • a more even skin tone

  • lower skin reactivity to temperature, food, and cosmetics

The outcome depends on:

  • severity of the vascular component

  • diameter and depth of capillaries

  • patient’s age and skin phototype

  • stage of rosacea

  • adherence to post-treatment recommendations



How is laser treatment safe and effective?


  • The action is precise and selective — it targets only the vessels without damaging surrounding tissues.

  • Modern devices are equipped with cooling systems, making the procedure comfortable and safe.

  • Treatments are performed by physicians with specialized laser training.

  • At Dr. Uskov’s clinic, only certified, medical-grade laser systems are used.


Individualized approach


Everyones skin is unique. At our clinic:

  • we select the exact energy and wavelength for each case

  • we combine methods (laser, skincare, mesotherapy, photoprotection)

  • we provide personalized home-care and relapse prevention recommendations

  • we monitor progress with photos and dermatoscopy before and after treatment

Clinical “before & after” photos available on our website allow you to clearly see the results across different cases.


We treat patients of all ages


We welcome:

  • teenagers with early-stage erythema

  • women with combined forms of rosacea

  • men with phymatous rosacea (including rhinophyma)

  • elderly patients with chronic manifestations

Modern techniques allow us to control rosacea and restore a healthy, even skin tone.
