As of right now i have stopped lifting heavy (at least for this week see how it goes), no more Saunas, steam rooms, also no more hot sauce. I also use a sun block whenever i go outside. It this doesn't work then a derma for sure.

I been to the derma so many times about it, tried everything you can imagine, nothing works bro. I don't even have a bad case. They say that the light pulses are the only way to actually make progress. Or you can go by some afrin and spray it in your hands and rub it on your face, it is supposed to close the blood vessels. The light pulse is like $500 per session and it is not covered by insurance and takes like 3 sessions to do anything... plus it comes back after time... Live with it or make the jump to the light treatment. I have tried everything! Something could work for you (doubt it) but if it does pm me and let me know.

My derm said using retin-a to help create more collagen in the skin would make the rosacea less noticeable.
