I only have the blushing and intense redness and some broken capillaries and not actually break-outs. The treatments improve the redness dramatically; however, the maintenance treatments are very necessary or my skin will go right back to pre-treatment redness. I am able to cover my rosacea quite well with mineral makeup (Bare Escentuals), but still feel more in control of my symptoms by having the Photofacial treaments done. I also notice big improvements in the tone and texture of my skin for several months following a treatment. Like Botox, these benefits abate with time. As a side note, I have noticed that chocolate really aggravates my flushing. I avoid wine and coffee completely. Overall, I highly recommend Photofacial as part of a treatment and maintenance regimen.
