  Skin Care & Concerns

Rosacea (pronounced roh-ZAY-sha) is a common but poorly understood disorder of the facial skin that is estimated to affect well over 14 million Americans -- and most of them don't know it. In fact, while rosacea is becoming increasingly widespread as the populous baby boom generation enters the most susceptible ages, a Gallup survey found that 78 percent of Americans have no knowledge of this condition, including how to recognize it and what to do about it.  www.Rosacea.org has all of the information that anyone might want on this condition and discussion groups and other forms of patient support materials. 

For sheer information, it´s tough to beat DERMAdoctor´s feature articles and newsletters where Dr. Kunin shares the most current developments in skin care technology and research. This is what separates www.DERMAdoctor.com  from other retailers on the web.

Some clients swear that the amino acid lysine, taken at a dose of 500 mg a day, will help prevent a recurrence.  Research any option carefully and talk with your Dr. to find one that works for you.  Many people deal with cold sores and fever blisters.  Though this is a commercial site, it has a lot of good information on HSV1 and how to deal with it.
