Mirvaso Gel
Rosacea Treatment

Mirvaso Gel is a prescription treatment specifically designed to reduce the facial redness associated with rosacea. Its active ingredient, brimonidine tartrate, belongs to a class of medicines called alpha agonists. This ingredient works by narrowing blood vessels in the facial skin, effectively reducing blood flow and redness.

The active ingredient in Mirvaso, brimonidine, stimulates alpha receptors in the muscle walls of blood vessels. When applied to the face, it causes the blood vessels to contract, reducing blood flow to the area and minimising redness. While it does not cure rosacea, Mirvaso effectively manages its symptoms by targeting visible redness and flushing.

Mirvaso Gel often begins to reduce redness within 30 minutes of application, with effects lasting up to 12 hours. For best results, it should be applied daily. Individual results may vary, but consistent use typically leads to noticeable improvements in managing rosacea symptoms.

Mirvaso should be applied once daily to the affected areas of the face, including the cheeks, nose, chin, and forehead. Use a pea-sized amount for each area, spreading it evenly in a thin layer. Avoid applying it to the eyes, eyelids, lips, or inside the nose. Wash your hands thoroughly after application, and wait for the gel to absorb before applying makeup or other skincare products.

Some people may experience side effects, including mild redness, itching, flushing, or a burning sensation at the site of application. These effects are usually temporary and do not require stopping treatment. However, if symptoms worsen or become severe, stop using the gel and consult a medical professional.

In some cases, users may experience a temporary worsening of redness after starting Mirvaso. If redness persists or worsens, speak with a doctor to discuss alternative treatments.

Mirvaso Gel is suitable for adults over 18 with rosacea-related facial redness. However, it may not be appropriate for individuals with certain medical conditions, such as heart or circulation issues, depression, or those with irritated or damaged skin on the face. It is also not recommended for use during pregnancy or breastfeeding. Always consult your doctor to confirm if Mirvaso is suitable for you.

To maximise the effectiveness of Mirvaso, avoid common rosacea triggers such as alcohol, spicy foods, caffeine, extreme weather conditions, and intense exercise. It is also advisable to use gentle skincare products and apply sunscreen daily to protect your skin.
