Using oil to treat rosacea on the face

What kind of disease is this

Cuperosis is a violation of blood flow in the epidermis. Regression of blood in small vessels is manifested by redness and the appearance of spider veins. The walls of the capillaries in the epidermis become thin and brittle as a result of constant pressure. Women with light and hypersensitive skin most often suffer from rosacea.

The first thing to do is to improve the condition of the walls of blood vessels, and some essential oils can help, as they contain fatty acids that restore the elasticity of the walls of blood vessels.

Base oils

The main task of base oil substances is to reduce the irritating effects of essential oils. Due to the fact that the mixtures are extracted from those parts of plants that contain the most fat (bones, nuts, seeds), they do not evaporate for a long time and have no odors.

The use of base oils for rosacea

We can highlight a number of beneficial properties of oils that will be important for rosacea:

anti-inflammatory effect;
improvement of microcirculation of the epidermis and dermal structures;
good permeability through pores, especially for people with oily skin.

Treatment

What you need to do to restore your health:

No cosmetic product will help if the problem of the disease lies in the body, so you need to treat the internal organs.
A healthy diet is a must. It is necessary to exclude all unhealthy foods, spicy, sweet, fatty foods, junk food, alcohol, smoking.
Hypertension is another cause of croup. Avoid stressful situations and get good sleep. If your blood pressure constantly rises, you should consult a doctor who will prescribe appropriate medications.
You should consume more foods containing silicon, which helps to quickly strengthen blood vessels. Oatmeal, peas, and buckwheat are also suitable.
Vitamins are indispensable helpers in the fight against diseases. Particular attention should be paid to vitamin C, which will help get rid of varicose veins and hypertension.

In combination with these activities, you should start using light oils, which should only be purchased in pharmacies.

Causes

Since the causes of rosacea can be external and internal, we will consider them separately.

Internal include:

Rosacea.
Hormonal surges. Spider veins often appear during menopause or pregnancy.
Diseases associated with the thyroid gland, pancreas, ovaries.
Some types of cardiovascular diseases, as well as gastrointestinal tract diseases.
Selected autoimmune diseases.

As already mentioned, all of these factors are quite rare. Couperosis often appears for external reasons, which include:

Regular exposure to UV rays.
Bad habits. Alcohol and smoking have a strong effect on blood vessels.
Improper skin care. If the blood vessels are weak and the skin is damaged by scrubs or aggressive acids, the symptoms of rosacea will intensify over time.
An unbalanced diet, which contains a lot of spicy, too hot food, as well as chocolate products and coffee.
Severe temperature changes when the skin is first exposed to heat and then to cold.

Often it is not possible to determine the specific cause of rosacea, because its first symptoms begin to appear at a young age - the patient simply does not remember what could have influenced it.

Basic and essential oils from couperose stars

A good effect can be obtained by treating with light couperose compounds that can restore the walls of blood vessels, making them flexible. This reduces facial redness.

Solutions of base oils enhance the effect of esters and have the ability to strengthen the walls of the venous system.

What types of oils are there?

There are two types of oils for rosacea on the face - basic and essential.

Base oils act on the vessel wall, strengthen it and give the vessel elasticity. Their main task is to enhance the effect that essential oils provide.

They, in turn, with constant and regular use allow the vessels to restore the structure of their walls, restore elasticity, and increase tone. The effect will improve blood flow and the disappearance of “stars”. The most effective of them are oils of lemon, geranium, chamomile, rose, cypress, etc.

The main advantage is that all mixtures can be made at home - many of the ingredients are available at home, and rarer ones can be purchased at the pharmacy.

Recipes for oils against rosacea, preparation at home

Linen and almonds should be mixed in equal proportions. Then moisten gauze with this mixture and apply to areas of skin with rosacea for 20 minutes. It is worth noting that almond oil cannot be used in its pure form, otherwise you may get the opposite effect than intended.
Take 30 ml of jojoba essential oil, 15 ml of rosehip oil, 10 drops of cucumber, 4 drops of cypress, 3 drops of lemon and 2 drops of palmarosa. All ingredients are mixed in a glass container and placed on a couperose net twice a day.

Light oils of rosemary, thyme, lemon balm, sage, marjoram, oregano are used against rosacea, but they must be mixed with base compositions, for example, grape seeds, olives, avocado, macadamia. Castor oil is also used.

But these measures should only be applied after consultation with an experienced specialist.

Symptoms

Although this disease can affect any part of the skin, it most often manifests itself on the face - on the wings of the nose, cheeks and chin. This is due to the fact that in these areas the skin is thin and elastic.

This type of vascular network does not hurt, and there is rarely a feeling of itching or burning. It happens that after the appearance of such stars, the process slows down and stops - if you do not injure the skin and care for it properly, this does not cause any discomfort to the patient (or only aesthetic discomfort). But in some cases, the disease progresses and becomes more serious: the affected areas of the skin begin to turn blue, the skin or limbs (if rosacea is on the legs) swell, and inflammation begins.

Even if physically the symptoms of rosacea do not bother you, but it has appeared recently, you need to consult a dermatologist: if possible, find out the reasons for the deviation and understand whether there is any additional danger in it.

Stages on the face, complications

It is customary to distinguish four stages of rosacea:

1st. As a rule, the vessels do not appear yet or there are only two or three of them - a person simply often experiences redness in the face or other parts of the body. After severe redness, the skin can sometimes dry out (more rarely, peel off).
2nd. The redness of the cheeks is more obvious (often when washing or touching), the vascular pattern is more active. Some patients have a tingling or burning sensation.
3rd. The redness in the affected areas does not disappear anywhere - it is constantly on the skin. Severe dryness of the skin is observed, and an inflammatory reaction may begin.
4th. All facial vessels are already involved in the process; there is a spasmodic effect, due to which certain areas of the skin become pale.

The health and life of the patient with this disease is not in danger. But it is important to understand that rosacea is the enemy of young skin. The aging process begins to develop more actively, the skin loses its attractive appearance. This has different levels of significance for patients of different ages. If the problem occurs in adulthood and old age, many simply adhere to the minimum recommendations of doctors and do not pay too much attention to it.

But rosacea in children and young people requires a more serious approach - such patients still have a whole life ahead, so the aesthetic aspect is also very important for them.

In addition, it is important to remember that in some cases this disease still indicates problems in the body that can be dangerous. And in order to avoid problems, it is necessary to get advice from specialists.
