Rosacea - post op changes

I have Rosacea and use Rosulla, Metrogel and Differrin on my face daily. Since surgery I am experiencing a slight burning after washing my facing and applying creams.

Did anyone experience problems with these types of medications post op? What was the outcome?

I know my body is just adjusting now, I was just curious if anyone had a similar experience.

I have rosacea., I take tetracyaline and use a creme sometimes and use retin a. Right now I am not using anything. I was hoping all this would dissapear with the surg.The rosecea I have is like my skin The other creme i use on the break out is call fanacea.will break out in these huge bumps, I dont have redness or anything like that.I will not take the tetraccaline ,sorry pain med make me type bad, for a month or so then i will break out and i start to take again. My dermatologists said it would go away eventually. Good luck on all that

I have had Ocular Rosacea for years, but no visible Face Rosacea UNTIl I had the TAH/BSO. How I have Rosacea flareups on my face regularly and my chin and nose and cheeks are often red. So, I did notice an increase in my Rosacea, but am on no medication for it. How do you get diagnosed with face Rosacea and does insurance cover treatment?

I'm five weeks post op tomorrow, and haven't noticed any change. I have Rosacea, and use Prascion cleanser and Metrogel daily. Since the surgery, I've not been as diligent about medicating as I should.

Hope everything gets regulated soon!

I've never been able to use Metrogel, it is too irritating for my skin. You might want to hold off using these medications for a while and then try again and see if things have calmed down. My insurance has never covered treatment for rosacea, which really stinks! I hope you will find a treatment you can stick to. I didn't notice any difference particularly after my surgery, but mine rosacea just seems to flare sometimes for no reason that I can figure out. It is very frustrating!

my dermatolgists diaganos me but my insurance put a writer on it as pre existing. I quit my med for it before surg and just waiting for a flare uo, i always thought it hormanal.

Thank you for the feedback. My meds are covered by insurance but the dermatologist has to battle every time a new script is written to get it approved.

I am going to take a break from everything but the rosulla face wash for a few weeks and see what happens.

Thanks again.
