I used to think chemical peels were too harsh for sensitive skin, but a client's 8-week transformation changed my mind.

She had mild rosacea and we did a series of 4 gentle lactic acid peels, and the reduction in baseline redness was huge. Has anyone else had success with a specific acid for redness-prone clients?

Saw my friend's rosacea calm down a lot after she tried some azelaic acid stuff.

Oh nice, @mia_fox98! Azelaic acid is great for the redness and bumps, but it's not a cure-all. My derm said it's more for the inflammatory part, not the permanent broken blood vessels. For that, you'd need lasers. Still, seeing that calming effect is a huge win for daily care.
