New Dermatologist Breakthrough in the Treatment of Rosacea / Acne / Psoriasis / Eczema

It use to be that people with rosacea were thought to be blushing or prey to high blood pressure, but recently the cause of the reddening skin ailment has been identified.

Rosacea is caused by a parasite that lives on the skin and around the hair follicles of 98 per cent of adults, but only causes problems in a select few. The disorder causes skin on the face to become rough lumpy and reddish, and can also cause hair loss, premature aging of the skin, enlarged pores and acne. Sometimes the nose can become bulbous.

A new product that kills the human demodex parasite is now widely available, recommended by dermatologists and pharmacists, and receiving good reviews from rosacea sufferers. It features a complete line under the brand name FaceDoctor and includes soap, shampoo and cream.

Human demodex was isolated and identified by a team of physicians in China. The parasite looks like a microscopic worm and feeds on human skin. It takes just 10 days to grow from egg to adult size and multiplies rapidly if not treated properly.

Studies have shown babies do not have the parasite at birth, but become infected shortly after being touched by other humans. The infection grows as people get older and some theories suggest the parasites may get out of hand if the immune system is out of balance of if there's too much sugar or yeast in the diet.

In the past dermatologists have recommended antibiotics, especially when acne is involved, but results have varied greatly.

After 30 years of research, the Chinese team came up with a natural remedy in the form of sea buckthorn oil combined with some other ingredients. Results are generally achieved within days.

Pharmacies now carry the "FaceDoctor" products designed to kill Human Demodex and restore skin.
