Couperose is a condition characterized by fragile capillaries that break down under the influence of external and internal factors. Proper prevention and gentle care can help reduce its development.
Rosacea shares many visible signs with couperose, but its nature is different. Rosacea is a chronic skin condition that most often appears in the central part of the face (nose, cheeks). It is linked to vascular and nervous regulation, as well as increased skin sensitivity.
Typical signs include:
Redness (erythema) — may be temporary or persistent, often worsening in response to triggers.
Telangiectasia — dilation of small blood vessels.
Papules and pustules — small eruptions sometimes accompanied by mild inflammation.
Mild swelling — micro-edema of tissues due to microcirculation features.
Burning or tingling sensations.
Thus, rosacea manifests as a combination of vascular changes and heightened skin sensitivity, requiring careful and consistent care.
Recommendations for Skin Care with Couperose and Rosacea
General Guidelines:
Strengthen blood vessels and avoid aggressive procedures (laser treatments, extreme temperatures). Do not use ice, hot water, or steam treatments.
Exclude harsh scrubs and cleansing brushes.
Limit sun exposure: ultraviolet rays make capillaries more fragile.
Incorporate gentle massage techniques for couperose, such as lymphatic drainage and gua sha — they help strengthen vessels and stimulate the growth of new capillaries.
Use cosmetics with active ingredients: Vitamin C, resveratrol, allantoin, panthenol, ferulic acid, copper peptide, Eyeseryl®; extracts of horse chestnut, rosemary, licorice, centella asiatica, green tea; essential oils of rosewood, frankincense, cypress, geranium, immortelle, copaiba, and patchouli.
