Rosacea is a common inflammatory skin condition of the face characterized by symptoms of flushing, inflammatory lesions, vascular changes, and ocular involvement. The pathophysiology and clinical presentation varies, thus making treatment challenging. Naturopathic doctors employ a holistic approach to treatment by incorporating interplay between different body systems in the pathophysiology of disease. This course reviews the naturopathic medical approach to treating rosacea using an evidence-based perspective including oral and topical botanical and nutraceutical therapies.
Learning Objectives
- Differentiate between the multiple factors involved in the pathogenesis of rosacea
- Recognize the correlation between rosacea and dysbiosis, and treatment outcomes
- Assess when Demodex mites might be a factor in rosacea and prescribe an appropriate treatment protocol
- Integrate evidence-based naturopathic treatment modalities into rosacea treatment plans
