Guest guest Posted May 12, 2002 Report Share Posted May 12, 2002 I am currently looking for somewhere to get photoderm treatment in the UK The only place I have found so far is in Harley Street, London and is called The Private Clinic. They offer a treatment called Vasculight, which I am hoping is the same as photoderm. However even after ordering the information pack I'm still not sure. I will be booking a free consultation to find out more next week but I would really appreciate some opinions on the site below. http://www.rosaceaclinic.co.uk/thebreakthrough.htm The rest of this email isn't important but I thought I would include a bit about how my rosacea developed. I am 25 years old and have had " mild acne " since I was about 14. I have seen doctors and dermatologists ever since and have had all the usual treatments including a course of roacutane. When I was younger I thought sun bathing, fresh air and exercise were the keys to improving my skin. This resulted in me spending every spare second of my day doing these things. My life was non-existent during this time but the idea was to start living again when the acne cleared up. However what I didn't realise at the time was the damage I was doing to my already sensitive skin. The soaps, topical lotions, sun bathing, fresh air etc have I believe directly or indirectly led to my cea. Anyway, until recently I had just about given up hope. Then I stopped using soap and started moisturising every night with Aveeno cream and Vaseline. As a result my skin is now much healthier, less flaky and less sensitive. It is still very red and I flush quite often but I am hoping that photoderm might help with this. I still get depressed as well but compared to the last six or seven years I am a much happier person. I will keep reading the emails posted on this site because I find them very informative and interesting. Thanks for the help. Stuart Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest guest Posted May 12, 2002 Report Share Posted May 12, 2002 Stuart, sometime last week I posted an abstract on phototherapy on rosacea from a university in Wales, I believe. Contacting the authors of the study may give you leads elsewhere in the UK, since academicians, more often than not, network with others highly regarded in the field. Good luck.
