Guest guest Posted February 17, 2002 Report Share Posted February 17, 2002 If you check the archives there are a number of messages posted re: Vitak Solution for spider veins (under twenty dollars in most places). You can purchased it at most drugstores and online. I've been experimenting w/ this product around my nose area for about a week, and so far it appears to be working, although I think I have a couple a weeks yet to see real improvement on the more visible veins. One bonus, and I'm being cautious here, is that I'm noticing some improved textural changes in my skin in the aforementioned area. I had a couple of areas where the redness occasionally surfaced, that looked like skin after a bad burn. It was just poreless, kinda smooth and delicate. I'm noticing the pores are re-appearing and its starting to look " normal. " If you do search on Vitamin K, rosacea, you'll find a number of products that will likely work, but the key is finding ingredients along with the K that won't irritate your skin. One final note, I strongly encourage people who are new to the board to use the archives (yes I know, its a time zapper); be creative with the key words,and you can find many answers. I can't believe how many simple questions are posted over and over again. As we all have learned, there are no quick answers and this disease involves lots of homework!

Well, this all remains to be seen. If Dermatologists and Cosmetic Surgeons use 5% Vitamin K cream, and it's claimed to be used on cea sufferers too, I'd be very surprised if any of ingredients were harmful. But, after I call the pharmacy tomorrow (Monday) to see if it can be gotten by prescription, we'll see what happens from that point. I'm not real excited about spending $30.00 to mail order it... a Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
