Mirvaso Gel

What is it?

Mirvaso Gel is a prescription-only treatment specially formulated to target persistent facial redness caused by rosacea. Suitable for all types and severities of rosacea, this fast-acting gel works within minutes to hours of application and provides results that last up to 12 hours. Mirvaso Gel, with its active ingredient Brimonidine, reduces blood flow to affected areas, offering relief from redness and visible blood vessels. It is effective for both daily use or as needed.

Key Benefits:

• Reduces facial redness quickly, with results noticeable within minutes and lasting up to 12 hours.
• Minimizes blood flow to reduce the visible effects of rosacea-related redness.
• Can be used independently or in combination with other rosacea treatments, such as Soolantra Cream, Rozex Gel, and Efracea Capsules, for enhanced effectiveness.
• Ideal for long-term use with minimal risk of rebound redness if used as directed. Some users may experience mild skin irritation initially, which usually subsides with regular use.

Dosage & Usage:

• Mirvaso Gel: Apply a thin layer to affected areas once daily, ideally in the morning or as needed, as directed by your clinician. Use sparingly to minimize potential side effects.

Duration:

Mirvaso Gel delivers immediate benefits for reducing redness, although continuous use over weeks and months may help manage rosacea symptoms effectively in the long term. Consistent daily application is recommended for best results.

• Aloe Vera Gel: Known for its cooling and soothing properties, it can be effective for mild redness.

• Hypoallergenic Moisturisers: Such as Cetaphil or La Roche-Posay, which are gentle on sensitive skin.
